I've been here just a few times and it's decent enough. It's probably the only place I'd drink on the Shankill Road, and even that's pushing it. I wouldn't drink on the Shankill Road if you paid me too.

It is a bar with a lot of history and interesting characters. A great base for pub crawl along the road avoiding the clubs.
