Crown Liquor Saloon

Oldest Pub in Belfast

 Located in a magnificent grade A listed building that dates back to the 1880s. While now one of the most famous pubs in Belfast, we were once one of the iconic Victorian Gin Palaces in the city. Today, you can still enjoy many of the stunning original features, having been lovingly restored by the National Trust.
