Beautiful old bar, narrow as a fish tank, in a building off Victoria Square. Walls and drapes are dark green and hung with bright oils of literary figures that bring it to life. Try a sweet-hot whisky with lemon and cloves and dream that your horse is coming in. This is Belfast's best kept secret.

If you're a tourist and you want a feel of day to day Belfast then give this a go. It's a surprisingly spacious little place decked with topical Ulster art but also friendly. You can chat with the Ulster rugby season ticket holders before they go to the game on a Friday. And meet good down to earth locals.

Wonderful relaxed atmosphere surrounded by great taped music and the best pint of Guinness in Belfast and served by the owner John. The paintings around the wall feature many famous people and the artist Joe O'Kane is a regular in the bar. A visit is a must.

a bar that makes the effort to serve proper beers and ales both on draught and bottle from German to American not to mention our own locally produced varieties. Enjoy the art, the ambience and the difference.We should be demanding and crying out for bars like this, a refuge from the wifes shopping.

We were there with a large crowd, barely do-able in such a small place, and yet were accommodated by a friendly staff. The very best breaded mushrooms, and that's no a joke. One of the very best meals we had while touring Ireland, Scotland and England, if not THE best.

Great wee bar. So far ambience not too spoilt by the entrance to Victoria Square shopping centre being right at its door. Well worth a visit to relax, take in the paintings and the eclectic music on the juke box thingy.

The owner is a top man.

Having worked on the building sites around the city centre, I have had many a a pint in bittles, a very warm cosy atmosphere, with great service and great food. The paintings by artist Joe o kane that hang around the walls are wonderful to look at
