Been to the Rock this Easter 2018 with family and friends Damian Quinn was fantastic upstairs was heaving full to capacity with a brill atmosphere with singers and bands a must for any republican visiting from abroad. You cant beat the Irish.
I have drank in The Rock Bar for many years and alway found the hospitality first class. Brilliant on match days if your not over for the game. Damiem Quinn usually after all big games first class. Locals very friendly even to strangers.I have a lot of family visits from Scotland and England and they just adore the place. Staff always friendly and welcoming. Best bar on the Falls Rd and well worth a visit. :)
Big journey to Belfast for me, left in 1972 for New Zealand when I was 5 yrs old. My family took me to the Rock Bar several times, and I had a ball. Very proud to be a Crowe from Whiterock Cres! Was only there in Sept/Oct 2011 Kia Kaha
Great atmosphere in this bar, the cutomers and the staff all gel together to create a great place to go to for a nite out. The new owners have turn this bar around , watch this space this bar will be one of the best spots to go on the falls road.
THE BEST PINT IN TOWN
new owners it is the best bar in ireland
We came in this bar as two Englishmen not knowing what to expect or how we would be greeted. We could not have been made more welcome. The landlord and the girl at the bandit were very helpful and polite. They gave us a bit of history of the pub and also told us of other bars to visit. Well worth the visit to this old historic bar.
My great great grandfather built the Rock at the turn of the century. I visited it in 2005 then age 6. Very proud to be a son of the Rock! The Rock Bar Rocks!
I WAS ONLY IN THE ROCK BAR ONCE ABOUT 2004. IT WAS MY DAD'S OLD HANGOUT BACK IN THE 50'S ETC. SO I WANTED TO SEE WHAT IT LOOKED LIKE. I FOUND IT A HAPPY PLACE TO BE. THE EMPLOYEES AND PATRONS MADE ME FEEL VERY WELCOME, EVEN THOUGH I HAD BEEN LIVING IN AMERICA FOR THE PREVIOUS 45YEARS AND HAD CULTIVATED AN AMERICAN ACCENT. THE DRINKS WERE VERY REASONABLE (AND POTENT). I WILL NEVER FORGET IT. THANK YOU ROCK BAR FOR MAKING ME WELCOME.
