Ireland's largest pool room, so I understand. Great, fun place on multiple levels, and the person who served us was a great laugh!!!

Do not take the "special" offer on gin. I'm not sure what brand it was but it was AWFUL!! I have never left any alcohol behind me, but I was not able to even drink a quarter of my order.

***Update*** I came here for a wrap party of a high-profile prequel to a popular series... if you know, y'know! And I’ve GOT to hand it to Lavery's... it was as SWEET as it gets! The setup was spot on, with drinks flowing and the atmosphere just right. The staff were fantastic, making sure everything ran smoothly! Plus, the toilets were spotless! definitely a FOOT above the rest! The outdoor space was perfect for soaking up the vibes and celebrating our epic journey. If you're looking for a great spot to unwind, Lavery's is the place to be!

I visited here whilst staying in Belfast. It's a pretty big place which consists of 2 floors. They had some great music on Saturday night with a singer, but the best part was the pool tables (situated upstairs). There was around 20 or so, and they are in great condition to play on. There's also a massive projector screen for the premier league football as well as some smaller ones situated all round. Decent prices, and they also do a top pint of Guinness. We didn't eat here, unfortunately, but from what we did see, the food looked brilliant!! As an erdinger fan, it was great to see some different types that I've not seen before.

Once a lovely bar where working class folk could enjoy craic, now a bar with no soul that panders to hipsters and the entitled. Drinks are overpriced, food is also expensive but not always good. Staff can be rude, sometimes abusing their possition (at every level) Sadly the old Laverys is dead, what remains is a lottery, one may enjoy a night out, or, one may encounter coked up little brats who the staff may favour as they ruin one's night. Classic example of a bar growing beyond it's working capacity & owners who have taken their eyes of the prize. Laverys had a great philosophy. Now, I don't feel their philosophy extends past grandeur and cash. They're ruining their family bar, as a regular of 25 years it's horrible to feel so unwelcome in a place that once felt like home. C'est la vie

It's far too big and far too expensive. Kind of symbolises the problem with pubs in Belfast/NI - there needs to be a lot more competition as the pub game currently works like an oligopoly where a small number of big names charge and act how they want. Lavery's is decent for a football game but the cost means a trip is more of a treat than it should be. The same goes for their Pavilion pub on the Ormeau Rd.

If you're a depressed male person who just wants to sit alone and never talk with anyone this is your place!!! But seriously this used to be my favourite place. I loved meeting new people, the food was good and normally people were nice. But then something changed. First I got told I was to drunk to get inside because I was genuinely happy and dancing on the way there (I didn't drink anything). Next time I got hit on by the security. And the next time I went there I got told I wasn't allowed because apparently people I talked with for 5min got into trouble after I left. Not the people I came with. I enjoyed going there alone and just meet new people. It felt safe. Now you couldn't pay me to go there anymore.

Pub in the heart of the city with a pool hall , comedy club, and bar. Good way to start your pub crawl into the city. Also has live music. The pub food which is served is decent. The general go-tos are burgers , salt, and chilli fries with chicken strips. The Guinness is decent. Recommend this bar if you want to hang out with your friends and chill. It also has an outdoor seating area sort of like a beer garden.

Really love that Lavery’s has a rotating tap, gender neutral toilets and vegan options but I wish they had some vegetables on their menu other than cauliflower wings! Went here three times on a recent trip to Belfast and had some pretty appalling service experiences with staff that couldn’t be bothered to do their job or to acknowledge that there were customers to serve. We even had one who seemed annoyed that we were ordering food… I would recommend people go to Lavery’s BUT I would also strongly suggest that the staff get proper service training.

Travelling throughout Ireland with two Canadian Laverys, we HAD to visit the Lavery pub for a pint and a t-shirt. We met Dominic Lavery, 4th generation Lavery owner, and he was so hospitable to we 4 Canadians. The bar was empty as he had just opened the doors at 12 noon and so we were able to explore the walls of Lavery pictures and other memorabilia and the many rooms of the pub without disturbing patrons. It’s huge! Traditional cozy Irish pub feel with 6 bars and many cool nooks and crannies in a large footprint. Dominic welcomed us and made our brief visit memorable. The kitchen wasn’t open for lunch, but the Guinness was excellent. The pub is just down the street from the university, so a very popular place for students. The Lavery Pub? Can’t wait to go back and try the food!
