Popped in whilst on a bit of a wander round the city. Had Hilden Belfast Ale on.

Now seems to be called Brennans bar. The interior decoration is a bit 80s & the music is way annoying - but the food is great. Good retreat option when the tourists take over The Crown next door.

Now I can say I have been to both of the Beaten Docket pubs listed on beerintheevening! I've walked into both shortly after opening time and this one was much quieter at this time than its Cricklewood counterpart. There was only one other customer in the pub. So we had the choice of tables and barmen (three of them reading newspapers). There's no real ales here. I could imagine this place being extremely busy and loud each evening. But why visit here when the Crown is next door?
|
Decent pub with nice decor and, I believe, an upstairs dining room. Lives in the shadow of the Crown and Robinsons next door but can be a haven of calm if you are after a quiet pint. No real ale.
|
Have always found the atmosphere a little lacking in here. Big and open on two levels, friendly staff, usual range of beers for a Belfast bar. TV always on racing channel, mixed bunch of visitors, but somehow just a bit sterile. Walk 10 yards across the road to the Crown or Robinsons beyond that...

just been on 1st visit too belfast and due 2 bad weather spent alot off time in here as opposite hotel and was decent pub 2 watch footy and service was quick which is also a good sign
|
good pub nice friendly atmosphere always try and drop in here when i'm over visiting my mates here.
|
Not much happening here when I dropped in. Lovely pint of Smithwicks. The staff seem fairly sound and the few customers that were in the place were minding their own business. Unusually quiet for a city centre pub.

Grungy pub that's popular with the nose ring set. Nice enough though some weird drinks going on; ice with your lager and vodka with milk? No thanks.
