Our tour group (20 adults) felt the immediate diversity in this town, the moment we entered. We were turned away from this bar as well as several others in the area from having an Irish southerner as our guide. We couldn't wait to get away from the bad vibes and go towards a more positive part of town. (AKA not protistan territory). Shame on Filthy McNasty, who clearly lives up to their name.

It was the biggest sticking point for me before I went and I took more than my fair share of persuasion before I went. On my first and last visit, I was with friends who have frequented the place more than once so I followed behind them and did as they did. It's really not the sort of place I would ever visit again. You can bring your own alcohol which makes it more bearable. However, I couldn't help but feel uncomfortable throughout it as it just is not my sort of thing. Ironically Shisha is meant to help you relax. For some people, this is the perfect place to go and chill out and for that reason you are welcome to it. I would rather a pub and a club to loosen myself up. It can often be over used but this is the epitome of 'you'll like it if it's your sort of thing'. It's not mine and I really did not enjoy it.

Shisha is something I first tried whilst lazing around Camden market when I lived in London. I…read moreloved it, so when this place opened I jumped right in. It's bring your own which makes it quite cheap as well and because it's Shisha, it can be smoked inside, which is very convenient. On the night we went there was an acoustic session going on which added to the very chilled out atmosphere. Apparently it's been having some licensing issues but hopefully that can be sorted out. It's a great place to chill at lunch or for a night out.

To be fair I think I've only ever seen Hen and Stag parties bound for Dublin on The Enterprise using this service. They do really good beer and cocktail offers. This isn't a place where you would go for a heavy one, it really is aimed at onward travellers, it's just like an airport bar. There's loads of comfy seating and plenty of tables with views over The Lagan (hence the name). They even have a screen stating all train arrival and departure times. Not really my cup of tea, but I think it's really handy if you have time to kill in Central Station.

Since we had already had lunch we sat at the bar for a beer. We were greeted by a nice bartender. We told her we were looking for either a beer or cider. There are a few tables outside to enjoy the weather and a few tables inside. The bar area downstairs is small with quite a sizable collection of bras hanging from the ceiling. We ordered a Hilden Belfast Blonde and a Small Axe Session IPA. It wasn't super busy so talked to the bartender about travel. As another bartender walked in we also discussed beer and cocktails. He told us that flavored Gins were popular. He let us smell a few of the popular ones since we are not big gin drinkers. Decided to stop in the ladies room before leaving and found an interesting group of old photos while there. We didn't try any food but loved the beer and cocktail options and really enjoyed talking to both the bartenders. Stop by and check it out.

They have it all. I have been going to this pace for years, mostly for the drinking, but there very rarely a time where I don't have a good time. First, If going for the food I would recommend this place. For pub food it really raises the bar. A menu filled a various types. From burgers, to lasagne, to steaks, and everyone's favourites goujons. (Well maybe my favourite, but this is my review, so I'll just assume ;)) Filled with deserts like cheesecakes, brownies, and something called Eton mess, which j an probably a little afraid to try. The drinks come in a wide variety, from your usually carlsberg, harps, smithwicks and guiness. But you'll also get your erdingers, einstock (very recommended, only if it's payday though). Of you don't see anything you like I'm sure you can go next door to woodworkers, also owned by Lavery's, and they will really treat you. For a night out, this place offers 3 floors, bottom floor being a normal bar, with some good music out in the speakers. You can neet some great people down here if you want a good chat. There are two bars down stairs, so if you can't get one at the massive one, head through to the back and you'll easily get served there. The second floor I like to call the rock floor, where you have a DJ Playing out all sorts of great songs from all decades. If you cannot hear what you want to then just request the DJ to play and they'll be more than happy to oblige. I'm sure people have been tortured by my Offspring requests. :p Top floor is for the people wanting a good dance time. Plenty of dance, techno, anthems etc etc Not really my style, but from what I hear from some of my friends this is a great place to let it all out. Outside is great as well around the smoking area, offering easy access to woodworkers and is massive enough to find a space, have a smoke, or just sit chat and have a drink. Great place for football, though I'd recommend coming early for those that want a seat. They have an offer on where they give you tokens during football Games where if you buy 7 pints you'll get one free. It's something ;) This place offers it all. Even poop on the top floor of you go there during the week, or the day time. But just remember that Saturday night is party time. If you want pool, I would recommend he pavilion on the ormeau road which is also owned by Lavery's. Great place for a wide variety of people, without a doubt one of the best bars in Belfast!
