The Crown is one of the most iconic places in Belfast which lends itself to being a great place for a large group to meet up. When you work with guys from all over the country it's the place everyone knows. So whenever we have a lads day out in Belfast we always make it the Crown. If you are lucky enough and get a booth then your landed as it can be quite busy, standing room only. There is no end of tourists popping in for a pint but in my book that's great to see. Have a pint and some foreign culture I say. Cheers.
A must go if you are in Belfast. One of the oldest pubs in Northern Ireland and a gorgeous place to sit and sip some Irish beer. Decor is amazing with authentic wooden work from the 1800s. Cozy with old school booths and great service. Loved it here!
During my research for good restaurant / Pub while heading to Belfast - Crown Saloon stood out to be the oldest and best place to visit with family and friends. It was little disappointing as we had to visit twice - becoz the saloon does not take reservations / pre-bookings and it was full as early as 17:30 hours on day-1. Also not many options of veggies as it goes for non-veg with platter full. however, I indeed relished starters - macaroni cheese / chips with skin with tomato onion soup followed by hand-pressed veg burger. My companions were excited and spoilt for choices with wide variety of non-veggies and relished all time fav fish & chips, steaks and Caesar salad with house wine. I have extra sweet tooth for brownies, so my adventure ended with warm choco brownie. Overall, it was good experience in one of the oldest pub in the city.
Friendly advice : Don't rush , just take your time to relish you meal and enjoy the moment! (the dining table is yours for that whole evening) :}
This is a really beautiful pub in the heart of Belfast. Inside is just amazing worth a drink and meal. I had the best beef and Guinness pie...
Good food, but nothing special. Reasonably friendly service, but you have to go the bar and order and pay each time, which is tedious. Awesome atmosphere. It's a beautiful, old building. Worth a stop for a pint.
What a great experience visiting a local pub while here in Belfast. Staff amazing and the food and pints all fantastic. There were 4 of us and we all tried different menu items. Loved the mussels myself. Great for both locals and tourists.
An amazing pub with so much history! We sat upstairs for dinner and had Irish stew and steak and Guinness pie (and of course a few pints of Guinness!) The food was delicious and reasonably priced; the service was fast and the waiters were very helpful. It was very busy when we went so we had to reserve a table for an hour after we arrived so would recommend booking a table beforehand
This is one of Belfasts oldest pubs. Quaint original panelling. Also, this pub is still burning gas mantles for lighting, amazing! Great choice of beers. If you visit Belfast, you have to see this place.
This is a great place to stop in for a pint! Beautiful interiors soaked in history! The snug booths are very fun to sit in with friends and chat or play cards over a drink.
Great atmosphere and beautiful interior! I can also confirm that the Guinness does taste so much better in Ireland. 🇮🇪 Definitely worth the visit if you're in belfast!
Old beautifully maintained saloon. Great food with pleasant flavours. Nice staff. If going for dinner skip the main entrance and use the side door, up the stairs to the dining area.
Wonderful, historic restaurant and pub in a great location near Victoria Train Station & within walking distance from our hotel. Great atmosphere, excellent food and service. A must when visiting Belfast.
Very old, traditional Irish pub with amazing fixtures and fittings only problem and that was on our part was that on a Friday afternoon at about 4.00pm it was heaving with people like us...tourists and like us rugby fans going to the Sale v Ulster game next day also regulars after finishing work.
Have been in on a normal weekday afternoon when you get a chance to appreciate the wooden panelling, the etched windows, the tiles and the overall atmosphere of this lovely pub.
Well worth a visit.
Went in again today and we were lucky enough to get a booth as they are as rare as gold..loved every minute and it made for a great atmosphere.
A 200 year old gin saloon that was beautiful inside and the food was brilliant. Had the boar and chorizo pot pie and the macaroni and cheese main dish. Both were very good and hit the spot.
Never been to such a beautiful and well decorated pub, the original features are stunning. We sat in a booth and enjoyed the coziness and privacy. Many a lovely Guinness was had!
We did not eat here, just popping in for a drink and soak in the ambience. It's a pub that has loads of history, beautiful wood paneling and stained glass. The beer choice is just average but it's worth visiting for a quick drink just to experience being here. It can be quite busy and a lot of booths were reserved for early evening onwards.
A great, historical place. Always very busy but managed to find a booth, encourages people to get chatting, we met some lovely people. Would recommend trying the belfast beer and of course the Guinness.
Quite a busy place. Architecturally very impressive piece of history. The little Closed both are good for privacy but make it a less friendly atmosphere. Also you have to book to get one.
If you're staying downtown in belfast, this must be somewhere you visit. The interior is recognized on the National Historic Trust of Ireland. Absolutely gorgeous and absolutely beautiful. It's like walking back in time. Had a great deal of fun here drinking cold beer and bantering with my fellow Travelers in my own private booth. We did not try the food here but others claim that it was mediocre. I know that the bartenders were not very friendly at first but warmed up to us after we bought our sixth round.
Beautiful bar local to the bus station. Fantastic pint of guiness and great service.
What a great pub the whole place was amazing and the staff were very friendly and polite as well as the most efficient I've seen in a long time
This was the last port on our cruise, Belfast is a great place to visit and definitely worth a visit to the Crown for a pint of Guinness, so smooth, was told that the carpentry was done by the same carpenters that worked on the titanic.
