Tuesday Bell, Lisburnback to pub details please note - reviews on this site are purely the opinion of site visitors, so don't take them too seriously.
As someone has pointed out - am not usually a 'spoons fan but in NI it is your best option. Not as big as you'd expect and relatively empty considering it costs half what some of the nearby dives charge.
For instance, the nearby Hertford Arms. The hertford isn't listed here and probably with good reason - wearing a Rangers top isn't enough, wearing a rangers top and sporting a Follow Follow tattoo isn't enough... you need to be wearing a Rangers top (preferably tattooed on) and sporting a Rangers tattoo, a King Billy tattoo and a FTP tattoo and you may just about be ok here.

Not a bad spoons, but then not good. Provided entertainment when a couple of old codgers decided to have a bit of a barney.

I have never had a bad pint in this pub. This place dose a great fry as well. I can't understand what the other reviewers have against this fine pub

Poor spoons, compared to the one in Belfast. Arrogant young chap behind bar, only two ales on, one being Abbot(groan!!), dirty plates and cutlery everywhere.
Lisburn is not exactly a boozer's paradise, very disappointing i must say.

Another disappointing Wetherspoons in the centre of Lisburn. After queuing (an orderly line, I must say) for around 10 minutes, we finally got served. Only 3 ales were on plus 2 ciders. Greene King Abbot & Ruddles Best were supplemented by Adnams Broadside, whilst Addlestones and Westons Cider Twist Raspberry were the ciders. The interior is the usual characterless open-plan. At least the exterior looks out onto an enclosed square with shops and a tourist information office.

A really nice wetherspoon pub on two floors located in the town's market square. Came here for a delicious large ulster fry (�3.89) and a well kept pint of Woodfordes(�1.45). Sat upstairs as it had a nice view over the square and was more peaceful than downstairs. The girl who served us was really friendy too, couldn't ask 4 more! 8/10

This is as close as Lisburn has got to a chain pub, and although its not as grim as the multiple All Bar Ones, Slug and Lettuces and O'Neills on the mainland, there is a real Whetherspoons vibe about the place.
Before you know it, the town will be over-run by Starbucks and Subway!
