Great place for music and pints. Down a quaint little alleyway, this place has all the charm and is very lively at the weekend.

Another great find. Henry's pub and Jailhouse offer pub/sportsbar food with that old, very old feel. It is immaculate in decor and cleanliness while maintaining a medieval feel. Through the back doors, you'll connect to a restaurant known as the public house. A must-see and experience in Belfast. Bathrooms are on 3rd floor but there is an elevator.

Really loved our visit. Food was great. We had 3 for £10 - scampi, chicken goujons and chicken wings with chips which was enough for a lunchtime snack. Local beer was great. Would highly recommend the Jailhouse.

Lovely setting and history. There was an OK beer selection, and the restrooms are about a mile up 4 flights of stairs. Still a good little bar to have a couple of drinks and move on

I'm always surprised when I come here that it isn't busier. I remember it in its original form, this is a total renovation. Actually uses the outside area, one of the Historic Entries, very well. The boss liked the gin list, and I really enjoyed a couple of pints of Staropramen. Nice comfortable surroundings. If you are looking for a quick quiet pint this is the place. The only drawback is the three flights of stairs up to the men's toilets!
