Crown Liquor Saloon
Crown Liquor Saloon
46 Great Victoria Street, Belfast, BT2 7BA
This is the pub that will make you swear never to visit an Irish-themed bar in other parts of the world ever again. This Belfast pub, built in 1826, is the real deal. The High Gothic interior, lit in the evening by old-fashioned gas lamps is utterly irresistible and a recent makeover has erased years of tobacco residue, repainted with a ruby red tinge to the walls. Snag one of the wooden-doored booths that line the right hand side of the bar and gaze in wonder as your quick lunchtime pint of stout becomes a four-hour session with new friends. And you never know whom you might be sharing your booth with. James Nesbitt and Brad Pitt have both supped in here while working in the citys theatre over the road.
