Beautiful old traditional Irish Pub. The Guinness was amazing, perfect pour, perfect dome, creamy and thick with a perfect taste. I am a Guinness Snob, and although I was only in Northern Ireland for 5 days, and was only able to try the Guinness in the local areas of Bushmills, Portrush, and Belfast. This was the best pint of Guinness and Pub I had been into. I wish I could have gotten the Barmaid's name to mention her here, but which ever-lovely lady was working Monday 4th September 2023 at about 3:30 pm, you were an artist with the Guinness. Highly Recommend this Pub to any Guinness drinker or anyone who wants a nice place to catch a pint in a beautiful traditional pub.

Popped in with a friend for a quiet pint mid-afternoon. Has a little beer garden out back. Described to me as an "old man's pub". Fine but not quite enough character for me to rush back.

Went here on a Thursday night. The Guinness and beer were good. A friendly place with good service. The best bit was the group of about ten folk musicians having a great time on wind instruments, violins and various percussion instruments. The bar was very busy with people of all ages enjoying the music - and beer.

Called here with friends for a few drinks. Service and drinks were great and a nice open fire was on the go. However visit was ruined when the place was overwhelmed by the smell of cannabis being smoked in the beer garden/smoking area. We would have stayed but smell was disgusting. A local who was involved realised we were talking about it and closed doors but too late. Staff did nothing such a shame.

If You are after a night of letting Your hair down, this could be a good place to start (or finish). The staff at The Springhill Bar are quick to serve and pleasant with it... Prices are good and the drink selection is pretty varied too... I left the Bar relatively late in order to look for somewhere I could buy some hot food, it was a short while later that I discovered that my party hadn't lifted my jacket before they too left the Bar. I returned and explained the situation and they kindly allowed me to fetch it. Enjoy your visit.

We happened in on a Thursday night when there was an improv musical session going on. Get there around 9:00 as this place gets full on Thursdays by 9:20 or so. Sit or stand at the bar and try to engage the locals in conversation although they may be a bit hard to understand with the music in the background. The accent here is heavy; your efforts will be rewarded. Be friendly.

Exteriormente, el Springhill no sería el más emocionante, bar buscando y que por desgracia, hemos pasado regularmente a lo largo de los años durante muchas vacaciones al puerto. Ah, LO QUE HAS PERDIDO!!! Caminar a través de las puertas, y encontrará un maravilloso, limpio y reluciente, pub tradicional, lleno de personalidad y amable! Obviamente es popular entre los lugareños, pero pronto sentirte como parte de ella, como los visitantes son recibidos calurosamente por todos. Miércoles es 'abierto' la noche - mic gran entretenimiento y diversión brillante! Pero, lo mejor de todo es tradicional noche de música irlandesa... jueves sencillamente sobresaliente!! Había por lo menos 10 músicos talentosos y altamente-15 cantantes de diversos lugares, que tocaba y cantaba, a veces juntos, a veces por separado, y, con todo el ambiente y a todo el mundo en el bar Pic cantar, me podría haber levantado el tejado!! Viene gente de cerca y lejos de disfrutar de lo que sin duda es una de las mejores noches de verdadera música irlandesa que jamás!! ... y es gratis!!!! Gracias al personal del bar y, en particular, Leslie, un maravilloso camarero y un cantante que, (junto con su hermana Annie de madrugada) nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos! Grandes recuerdos y no podemos esperar a volver!!

There are many pubs in Ireland claiming to offer the "authentic" Irish experience, but I find that the hidden wee gems, the one's with no advertisements and no fuss are usually the very best, and the same is true of the Springhill. It's a true local gem, where everyone seems to know everyone and if they don't know you personally they probably know someone, who knows someone from your neck of the woods (even if you're from another country). The music on a Thursday night is breathtaking. Countless musicians playing traditional pieces, no sheet music, speakers or rehearsals needed. Get there early to get a seat, or stand back and have room to dance; it's up to you. But what ever you do, smile and have fun, because it's the perfect place to do it.

Listening to traditional Irish music in an intimate atmosphere with mostly the locals. Unfortunately there were some locals that were drinking a bit too much and became very loud, so they were disturbing the intimate atmosphere.But once you can ignore that, you'll be able to enjoy the authentic experience.

Got two Guinnesses and when I asked for a couple of napkins, the barkeep looked around, went in the back and gave me a bunch of toilet paper. I loved it!The musicians started coming in a bit after 9 PM. There ended up being at least 15 of them. We were right behind a woman who played both the recorder and tin whistle very well and danced with her feet better than anyone I have ever seen.A fun night.

They were playing traditional Irish music which was great, the pints weren't overly expensive. However, I found the place a bit dirty and it smelled a bit. There were people there who I felt were way too drunk to be there. I'm not some fuddy duddy who doesn't go past a few drinks, in fact I am a beer and jaegerbomb swilling 21 year old who has been refused service from pubs for being a lot less drunk than some of these people. A lot of them could hardly walk and there was a guy whose trousers kept falling down.Pub itself was OK :)

There was a great atmosphere, friendly and welcoming (even though there was a very "local" feel to it, we did not feel out of place). There were Irish dancers and many people playing instruments for hours on end as the drink was flowing. It really was a highlight of our short trip in NI and would recommend to all sorts of people. Hope to go back one day!
