The Red Devil was our second stop on our West Belfast pub tour. After having a couple of pints in…read morethe Beehive, we made our way over to the Red Devil. We stepped inside and new right away that we were in a "local" pub. The regulars were all talking to each other and everything grew quiet as soon as we stepped in. The silence, however, was short lived. As soon as we ordered a couple of pints, the bartenders and a couple of gents at the bar were chatting our ears off. Guinness seems to get cheaper the farther away you move from the City Centre and the Red Devil was no exception. I don't recall if they have a full bar available, but there is an off license run by the bar right next door. It was one of those types of places where you walk into the off license and it turns out to be the bartender that you were just talking to a few seconds before.

If your soft, I'd say tread lightly. If you're a loyalist I'd tell you to start running now…read more Politics aside, this is one of the most genuine bars in Catholic West Belfast. It's a Celtic and Man U pub, but it's even more local than that. The local football club Willowbank "The Bank" consider this home. And the Cliftonville FC is also strongly supported. The clientele are tough 'Salt of the Earth' Catholics who will warm your heart or beat you to a pulp depending on your behavior. I guess the highest praise I can give the Red Devil is if I'm ever in Belfast this is where I'm going. Great down to Earth people.

This is a popular pub at the bottom of the Glen Road. Also sometimes referred to as "The…read moreGravediggers' Arms", as it's directly across the road from Milltown Cemetery. Covering three floors (the first floor serving as a restaurant during the day, usually having additional entertainment a few evenings a week, and the top floor being a small "attic" bar for small functions) it's a good place for a pint, day or night. It's bustling most nights, with various entertainment on from week to week (two-piece bands, DJs, etc.). The bar is a square, plonked right in the middle of the place. This is handy for getting a drink no matter where you're sitting, but probably not so convenient for the bar staff. Typical traditional style decor - wooden floors, comfortable seats. The price of pints are hard to beat, coming in at around £2.50, which is pretty good. Plenty of TVs around for the football and the racing, and worth calling in for a pint if you're visiting Belfast and happen to be along the Falls Road.

The only problems I've had in there is that the bathrooms are far from clean and the smell is horrid which puts you off using them and I've had a few dirty glass with my drinks but apart from that I enjoyed the atmosphere and the bar itself.

Going to the Beehive was a bit of a hike for us when we first got to Belfast. Not being from this…read moreneck of the woods, going over to the West side of Belfast seemed like a long, scary trip. We shouldn't have worried, however, because the reception we got at the Beehive was more than welcome. As with most bars over in this part of town, the drinks are a little cheaper. They have all the standard bar food munchies. We had some chips with our Guinnesses (Guinnii?) and they were exactly what we needed. On the weekends they have bands and karaoke style sing alongs. Sure, it's nothing special but for an out of towner making their way around the West side, it's an interesting enough place.

The food arrived in about 10 mins, was nicely set out and was good We both orders off the healthy menu, hubby got a chicken & bacon Caesar with light dressing, wasn't too much sauce which was ideal I ordered a prawn orientalist stir fry...though I'm not too sure exactly how healthy it was...there was a fair amount of oil saying that it was tasty and there was ample enough big juicy prawns The kids all enjoyed theirs too! They have plenty of deals on too February every day has 2 for 1 cocktails And they have a set menu that includes a free cinema ticket...this consists of 4 columns to choose from, starting from £9.95 So plenty of choice! The girls were lovely servers, I could see they were run off their feet so I appreciate being talked to properly and not feeling 'rushed' All in all was a good lunch and will go back without the kids for a more adult beverage too
