The Crown Liquor Saloon

This place is a most-see in Northern Ireland's capital. It's a typical place where locals go and an advantage for Belfast over Dublin is that it's not so overrun by tourists (even though I was a tourist there myself, but when there's too many tourists in one place, they seem to take away the place's essence). This pub has a very special private booths, in fact I've never been in a bar where you can pretty much lock yourself into one to drink. The range of beers, how could it be otherwise, is immense and the malts are not far behind. It's well worth drinking at the bar so you don't miss anything.

It may not be the best pub in the world, as its website claims, but it sure is very nice and it has a great atmosphere, with a dark interior and booths dating back to the Victorian era. Renovated and restored several times from 1885 onwards, it's a great example of a Victorian bar with beautiful wooden interiors made by Italian craftsmen. It has been used as a set in many movies.
