We saw this pub while walking to the Titanic museum and decided to go that night. Great pub, very friendly staff and a great band performing Irish music. We booked to go back for Sunday lunch next day before we flew home and it was excellent

Typical Irish bar, the food was quite nice, we ordered the typical stew, sausage and mash, burgers. Their prices are reasonable £20 per person with the option to choose two dishes (starters, main courses or dessert) Pleasant attention and very attentive staff. The beer was very good

We were walking to the big fish when we passed in front of this restaurant and saw the sign that it was the oldest building in Belfast. And it was a pleasant surprise!! The place is old, with a limited lunch menu and very friendly service. We ordered the steak with potatoes, chicken wings and fish and chips. All delicious. A couple of history with a good meal.

Very cool little pub but the service was dismal. Not even a hello and I had to go try to find someone to let them know we were there. After about 15 mins we finally got menus. Walked out after just one pint without ordering food. We were hungry and after reading reviews we thought better of it.

We were on a cruise ship tour of Belfast pubs & bars, and this was one of our stops. It's not the oldest pub in Belfast (established in 1711), but it is supposedly the oldest building in the city. There was a group of musicians playing and singing traditional Irish tunes, and the music alone was worth the visit. A great way to experience some of the Irish culture in an enjoyable atmosphere. They had a wide range of beers and ales to choose from, and I tried the Belfast Black, which wasn't bad. It was a great tour which got better and better with each stop. Or maybe that was because they provided us with another drink at each pub.

No price list is visible, bar a few handwritten ones on a few of the bottles of spirits, so you call in expecting a "normal" price. A double vodka and coke and a single gin cost £20. So no matter how beautiful the pub is, the very friendly staff and the food looked fantastic I just couldn't stay as that is in my opinion a crazy price. Others obviously disagree as there were a few people in and the pub is indeed lovely, but the arena across the way was similar priced and you fully expect a higher price at events not the "local"

McHugh's, nestled in the heart of Northern Ireland, offers a quintessential pub experience that goes beyond expectations. During my visit, I had the pleasure of indulging in their renowned fish and chips, and the experience was nothing short of extraordinary, earning them a well-deserved five stars. Let's start with the main event – the fish and chips. It's no exaggeration to say that the portion size was colossal. The fish, enveloped in a perfect coat of golden batter, was not only visually appealing but also a culinary masterpiece. With each bite, the crispy exterior gave way to a succulent, flaky interior that surpassed my expectations. The accompanying chips, thick-cut and golden, were seasoned to perfection, providing an ideal balance to the dish. Now, let's talk about the pub itself. McHugh's creates an ambiance that is quintessentially Irish – warm, inviting, and steeped in tradition. The rustic decor, the comforting hum of conversation, and the soft glow of ambient lighting make it an ideal setting for a hearty meal. The pub atmosphere added an extra layer of authenticity to the overall dining experience, making it more than just a meal but a cultural immersion into Northern Ireland's rich pub heritage. The staff at McHugh's played a crucial role in enhancing the overall dining experience. Their friendliness and attentiveness added a personal touch, making me feel like a welcomed guest in this charming establishment. The combination of excellent service and a relaxed atmosphere created an environment where I could savor not just the food but the essence of Northern Irish hospitality. In conclusion, McHugh's deserves a solid five stars for delivering an exceptional fish and chips experience in a setting that perfectly captures the spirit of a Northern Irish pub. It's a must-visit for anyone looking to enjoy hearty, flavorful cuisine in an atmosphere that feels like a warm embrace.

The beer is good, the food and service is not. We waited 1.5 hours to get our mains, when they arrived they were either burnt, cold or microwaved to oblivion. Even though the manager knocked 50% off the bill it still felt like a total rip off. We certainly won’t be rushing back!

Had a company Christmas dinner party here. Food was served quickly and was of good quality, especially the fillet of seabass with delicious cauliflower cheese. Drinks wise it's a bit of a disappointment as Heineken is not served nor are any German or Belgian beers. (Heverlee being brewed by Tennant's, ie not Belgian at all). Downstairs is like fish in a barrel.

I wanted to come in here last summer when I pass by this place. Didn’t imagine it’s happening so fast! Really enjoyed the meal, hearty and not too heavy. The menu is a bit different from my expectation because of the festive season. I was coming for the famous boxty and was lucky to find them still present as part of the main dishes. Confit duck leg is flavorful, with a crispy skin. Boxty comes in a delicate golden crust, smooth, airy, and not heavy at all. A tall mashed potato pancake. (It’s hard to choose between the pump boiled and fried one and flat grilled one, but the former is the lighter option.) The tomato bean coddle is simply tasty, and the pieces of bacon add smokiness. The smoked black tea (Lapsang souchong), which I don’t usually drink at home, some how gives a Christmassy, fireside feeling. The staff are very friendly and cheerful and really familiar with the menu for recommendations and insights. The area is spacious with well-lit spots, which is unusual for pubs— great for reading ^^ The historic buildings itself is important for history lovers. The price us decent for the taste and portion!
