A pleasant place. Typical Irish Pub. Guinness draft beers are delicious. For those who want to have a good time accompanied by Irish music..

Strange place - seems spacious but cramped at the same time. Eclectic crowd or old-timers and trendy - good prices and a decent outside smoking area. Orderly and handy for a quick drink

I have never been so insulted in my life as I was by the bar staff in this pub I ask for a pint of blue moon which I have had before in the same place and he looked at me like something that came of his shoe his first reply was that they didn't sell it so I said then could I have a paint of a citrus IPA and he then replied with, " oh you look like you have been drinking today and I'm not serving you, I replied with, I am stone cold sober and he then said well I'm not serving you and this was embarrassing to say the last as it was Infront of other customers so I told him that I thought he was a cheeky bastard and to which he replied so are you, I realised that his problem was clearly a personal one either with how I looked or how I dressed, this happened me one other time in the same bar and I am almost sure it was the same bar man and older man with a bald head , I would be really interested to know if anyone else has had a similar experience with this place or this barman in particular

Called in for a drink on one of our walkabouts. We were enjoying a chat as it was quiet when a man and his son of about 13-14yrs old came in. A staff member stopped the father, seeming to challenge him in some way. The father and son left and returned about a minute later with a female I took to be the mother. It was obviously a foreign family on holiday. The father and son went to sit down and a staff member approached the father and told him that they had to leave as the establishment doesn't allow training bottoms. We found this quite an odd thing to do. The young lad wasn't very untidy looking and his bottoms were the cotton stretch type, not even like the bottom of a tracksuit. The family left, in shock at having been evicted. We left as soon as we finished our drink. I know that some places don't like football tops and things, but this really was a bit over the top on a weekday afternoon.

Lovely carvery, fast service. You have to ask for a larger or smaller portion if you want, but portions were good anyway. Drinks etc soon make bill add up to a lot more, but set carvery price good. We went Sunday 1pm, it was only carvery menu available Sunday afternoon, which was a pity because there were some interesting items on menu, I'd like to try next time. I recommend it 🙂

We were in the Fountain yesterday afternoon. There were 3 other tables occupied. Drinks arrived promptly but we had to wait 45 minutes for the food. I complained and the waiter suggested that we should order another drink. The food was OK but hard to enjoy after such a wait and we had to rush it. There are plenty of equally good restaurants in central Belfast were the service is much better. I would give the Fountain a miss.

What I once remember as a quiet pub in the city for the daytime drinker has certainly changed. Now a trendy tourist spot in perfect city centre location. Even better it had pints of Kilkenny on tap which can be hard to find. Nice place to sit outside and watch world go by.

The service provided by Alisha made it feel like family. She welcomed our dog and made the entire family feel at home. The food was equally comforting, and the dark wood and rustic features combined to make the whole experience one to remember. Thank you, Alisha, for helping to make such a happy memory.

Too expensive, low waged and unemployed can't afford a drink or food if they were to go out once a month. Rip of artists ( like alot of bars/pubs in Belfast) using CV19 shut down and other excuses to put their failure to attract customers because of their high prices.

4 of us called into the Fountain Bar on Sunday after a walk round the Xmas market (which was very expensive) didn't know you had to book but luckily a table was free. There was no menu today, it was a special Xmas carvery for £13.95 absolutely worth every penny, plate was warm the turkey and ham was moist and delicious the amount of veg, roast potatoes and mash was very generous. Will definitely return in the new year couldn't fault the service either. Merry Christmas to you all at the Fountain Bar.

I really wanted to visit this famous place as I’ve heard so many good things about it and I wasn’t disappointed! I took my dad here for the first time to enjoy a pint of Guiness. We loved it so much we returned 3 times in the same day after walking around the city trying to find another place - every time we both said to go back to Fountain Lane! Unique atmosphere, legendary Guinness and exceptional service received from Connor and Jackson made Belfast experience memorable. This is place is one of a kind!

We will definitely call back in there when we come to belfast again from Wales. Thankyou guys x

We chose an unfortunate night to dine at the Fountain Inn, but we have to say our lovely hostess handled the commotion of a noisy golfers' post-charity-tournament ruckus beautifully and skillfully moved us from pub front to dining room. We enjoyed a typical nice pub meal and actually were entertained by a not-your-typical-tourist experience.

Mi marido y yo hace poco tuvimos una comida en la fuente mientras se hospeda en un B&B cerca y quedamos muy contentos con la comida. El menú era limitado, pero que podíamos ver algo de lo que quería. Mi marido tenía el filete de cadera y dijo que era muy buena, lo que es alabanza de él, normalmente el mejor dice de una comida es que era "todo"! No había grissly malos y era cocinado cómo le gustaba. Tuve el risotto de pimiento rojo era muy sabroso, aunque era un poco seco que me gustaría y era bastante pocas pimienta roja. Mi marido no podía gestionar cualquier postre pero tuve el desastre de Eton, que era precioso y muy grande. Él tenía una cerveza que gozaba (creo que dijo que estaba Doombar).

comida tradicional de pub en un tradicional pub del pueblo - buena relación calidad-precio, con unas ofertas cambiantes junta. los asados del domingo son excelentes. Evitar las patatas dos veces cocinadas aunque - quemada y correosos. Normalmente tiene una buena selección de cervezas que cambia con frecuencia, pero evita el Flacks y si es caluroso y luego tienes lager!

Not a lot to say yet about interior deco, the garden, accommodation, beer or food. So why 5 stars? Because it has become one of a growing number of 'Community Buy-out' establishment's where locals and other interested parties have 'crowd-funded' to keep it as a pub. Now being gutted, refurbished, redecorated, brought up to modern compliance and safety standards by a host of willing volunteers, all the above short comings will be addressed, to the benifit of the building, the local community and the general pub diaspora. The pubs is an integral part of British culture. It is unique, they are places where people go to talk to each other, to find companionship, to gossip and catch up with news from near and far. The French have their cafés, Americans their bars, the English - and the British Isles in general - their pubs. The British pub is a place with an important social function - a meeting place, somewhere to relax, a fairly egalitarian place where people drink, eat, talk and in more traditional establishments, play games like cards or darts or even billiards. Sociological surveys have shown that the pub is the only place where the English (particularly) willingly begin a conversation with a stranger. To loose such institutions is to loose the character of the nation. Well done to all those who have contributed
