The Hatfield House in Belfast

Great service and.lovely staff ,

Used to be great wee place any day of the week with the locals but now it's a student pub 😔

I did not try their food, per service, but I did have a pint of liquid bread! XD My roommates helped me get heavy things up a lot of stairs, so I took them out for a drink. We chose Hatfield House for its atmosphere that seems more fun and more upbeat than its neighbors. The staff were patient, respectful, and fast. We weren't rushed at all, despite having a grand conversation, and the staff cleared our glasses as we drained them. Top notch!

Can’t recommend this place I’ve been there once at late night but it says it will close at 1am and the guy in the gate kicked me out and forced me to leave as he gave me a plastic cup to transfer my unfinish drink. I came back twice at different days exactly 12 and they didn’t let me in even though there still a lot of people inside.

Great pub. Good Guinness, live music, nice atmosphere.

Pristine both outside and inside-a cathedral to drinking. Apparently craftsmen who worked on the Titanic also completed fittings/fixtures here. Totally believable. Magnificent!

Vi valgte Hatfield fordi vi bodde i området på Airbnb og dro ditt for å se EM kampen hvor Frankrike ble overkjørt av Spania. Veldig god mat og hyggelig personale

Visited here for lunch as it's just round the corner from the office. Decent pub food menu with plenty of the usual options. Food portions are good for what you pay as well. Beer selection is poor, no IPAs or craft beer of any sort on tap. For a pub that seems proud of it's Irish heritage they could stock something from an Irish brewery instead of the usual Diageo/Coors/Carlsberg. The Guinness was fairly bland too. I had asked the staff if they had any craft beer in the fridge and was told no, but noticed on the way out they had cans of IPA in the fridge from a fairly poor quality local brewery. Either they didn't know it was there or knew not to sell it... Get some decent beer in lads and we'll be back again.

Omg what ignorant staff door staff lovely but bar staff horrendous a girl called Diana said she wasn't serving and totally ignored me and went to serve the person next to me smiling at the men my friend earlier was treated with a lot of disrespect as we are all middle aged ladies maybe the younger generation need to learn a bit of respect

We spent 10 minutes in the place. I decided to take 3 friends on their first visit to Northern Ireland, around Belfast, and the Hatfield was the first pub that we visited. After buying 4 pints of Guinness a guy came to our table and explained about it being a nationalist pub and it was in our interests to leave. That the probably the best experience of the bitter feelings expressed by certain people in Belfast that I could have wished for, so the other 3 guys realised how it was so difficult for some bitter individuals to move on. We ventured into East Belfast where we couldn't have wished to meet more welcoming people. I love Belfast, but there's still areas to avoid.

First time in Belfast, here for a gig at Belsonic and decided for a pit stop. Really friendly/helpful staff, cosy atmosphere, good tunes and an excellent selection of beers. Totally recommend.

I'm a wheelchair user it was ideal for me 😀

While we stayed nearby, we went off touring and searching for an authentic Irish pub - only to find this gem in our backyard with great live music and a cool vibe!

Nice atmosphere, staff couldn’t do enough and the food was fantastic. Nicest salt n pepper chips I have ever had

Busiest pub we went in on our pub crawl of the local area. Had live music on which was a bonus. Plenty of bar staff. Think it has 2 bars and a outside seating area. Good pub

Fantastic pub, so much history and something happening every night! Highly recommend

On the 5/3/24, I went to Hatfield House, for a meal with my two sisters. It was my birthday & that was the reason for coming here as well. The staff were very helpful, friendly & showed us to our table. They let us look at the menu & offered us a drink. & we then, ordered our meal. Hatfield House is on The Ormeau Road in Belfast & a restaurant & bar as well. This is an excellent place for anyone who is thinking of going out for a meal with friends. This is my first visit here, so I must say, that I enjoyed myself very much. Stephen Acton.

I live around the corner since appr 2 months and finally had a chance to pop in. Great atmosphere, very friendly staff and really good live music. Absolutely LOVED it so will be back and will try the food as well then. Thank you for a great night.

Great food and the door man's and stuff are ready friendly 😀 👌

I got a steak sandwich with chips, it was absolutely gorgeous and well worth the money. The staff were friendly. My partner had a guinness which he said, was lovely.

Great traditional pub, pool, sport and great atmosphere

Very nice place, bar food was excellent. Price of a pint was a bit expensive.

They have a nice pool table for a quiet afternoon game.

We had a party in the Hatfield on Saturday night on the Rooftop bar. The staff were amazing, the food was good and the venue was perfect. We would definitely recommend Hatfield to anyone looking for a great place to host an event! Thanks Team Hatfield and Connor for making our party class. T.J and Amy :)

This used to be a great bar and I was a regular in here up until about 15 years ago. It was always a student bar to an extent, but they have completely compitulated to the student population at the expense of the regulars. Also, one of the best things about tha Hat was the last night offies. I have been twice in the last few weeks for a bottle of red just after midnight, and twice I've been refused by clueless hipsters because "cops are about"!! FYI, I can walk into any bar or restaurant in Belfast, buy a bottle of wine, and take it home. Place is an absolute shadow of what it was

Staff were super friendly. Great atmosphere and great food.

Recently visited from down south Dublin Very very genuine staff looked after me and my peers let us eat food in bar from local pizza place beside bar very friendly bar staff who look after their own ordered us a cab from the bar also was just a pity food was off when we arrived as would have w got some will be visiting belfast more in the future.

Staff are lovely, very attentive, can't do enough for you, unfortunately the food was a let down, chicken curry was well presented but the curry itself was like water and the chicken tasted like frozen pieces, have had other nice meals here before, but disappointed on this visit.

Good local pub. Guinness is fine

The food menu is reasonably priced. I have called in recently a few times for the Guinness, not sure what it is, but the Guinness here is on par for one of the best pints in Belfast, not sure what it is, I think it’s served chilled more than normal. Definitely one of the coldest pints of Guinness I have had. New Guinness only bar in Belfast which you would expect to be the best pint in the City has nothing on the Guinness here.

Nice cosy place for nice evening relax. Busy place.

Good lively pub, staff were friendly and live music was very good....

Last week the Hatfield provided a wonderful setting for my Dad’s post funeral buffet. The staff were respectful and professional and did everything they could to make everyone comfortable! We hired the middle floor and roof garden - a lovely quiet area for the children and elders. The food was comforting and substantial for the occasion and everyone enjoyed it.

Visited this pub after a gig. Great service with friendly staff

I haven't been on the Hatfield for a few years and decided to call in for a drink or two, prior to Belsonic concert. Upon arrival we were greeted with a really friendly Barman who got us our drinks. Having seen someone else order food myself and my Mum decided we would have something here as opposed to the concert.... It did not disappoint. Mum went for the soup and the Guinness muffin and I had the Dirty Chip. Food was incredible and really well priced. We also got offered ponchos from the staff as the rain was coming on and they knew we were going to the concert. There were 3 or four staff working and every one was pleasant, helpful and friendly. I would recommend the pub for drinks and the food for snacks and will return.

Quiet when I was in, but heard they do music on Friday nights from 9.30. Decent pint of Guinness and a bit of character

Great pub with friendly staff 👍

This is based near where I was staying. Brian was a good lad, very friendly and welcoming who not only poured a lovely pint of Guinness but also gave a good mini tour of the pub. Also worthy of note is Eimear and a couple of other young ladies who work there. Very attentive and helpful. Highly recommended!

Great Pub, food was good. Amazing whiskey sour!!!

Nipped in for a late pint as my flights had been delayed in to Belfast. Live music, and a great atmosphere, especially for a week night.

Got a girl back every night I went there, 5* 👌

Extremely disgusted at the behaviour of the staff at The Hatfield House Belfast. Discriminatory behaviour like this can not keep happening. Me and two friends went the whole way down to watch a local musician perform. There was no tickets required and free entry at the door. I actually had messaged them earlier on Instagram to check what time the live music started and they were happy enough to respond and give me the information. Upon arriving (completely sober) we were refused entry and when we asked why we were rudely told “because you’re not getting in.” We were then laughed at by FOUR bouncers as they continued to let other people enter the premises and also leave the premises with alcoholic beverages. I made a phone call and got in contact with the manager who said his name was Brian. On the phone he said “I can’t see any reason why you were refused. I can tell you are sober. I will speak to the bouncers now and you can try again.” This never happened as I remained outside the venue waiting on Brian who never showed up. I then made another call to Brian who said he would message me on Instagram after he spoke with them. I told him I would rather wait outside for him to come and find out why we were refused. He said he would come and do this now. Which he never did. After this all phone calls and messages have been IGNORED. To be completely honest I believe the bouncers have not let us in for completely discriminatory reasons. It is either because we were all clearly GAY. OR because I am larger than thier normal crowd. Which in 2023 are two completely disgusting reasons to refuse entry to a bar. I have tried to contact the Hatfield House again by phone and also by Instagram message and have had no response. I would strongly recommend anyone to avoid them at all costs as clearly they do not want to resolve the issue.

Cozy place with good fries. I prefer this pub to watch football as it does not feel chaotic.

We booked the private room up stairs for my daddy's 70th birthday with food and music for all the guests that came it was a good night out friendly and helpful staff and also wheelchair friendly as it has a lift for them and accessible toilets also as my auntie and myself are both on walking sticks due to are different medical conditions we are unable to use stairs so that is where the lifts come in handy for the two of use I would recommend the Hatfield House bar and restaurant to all young and old disabled and able bodied people there is everything there for all.

Amazing, especially on a Wednesday, house band “Plenty in the Tank” are great

Amazing student hotspot, casual dresswear, Irish to the core. Extremely nice :) not too loud not too quiet, everyone moving about. Fair size for a medium sized pub

The Heinekin was very good. The Fish and Chip not great

A real gem of a traditional pub. Excellent service and brilliant staff.

The Hatfield House staff and customers are all wonderful, the place has a marvellous atmosphere and the door staff made me feel safe. They were kind enough to allow me to collect donations for Autism Community Initiative NI. I can't reccommend the place highly enough and the students certainly love it.

Great pub with lots of historic significance. Staff is wonderful and accommodating- gave us a first tour and history of the establishment.

Private party 🥳 Decor was modern..Bar staff were quick and efficient. Toilets well maintained .

Nice feel about place. Nostalgic decore, gaelic flags, good drink 2b had

Lovely spot - great rooftop garden - staff friendly and helpful.

Stopped off here for a wee cheeky cocktail (or two). Staff were friendly and place was clean and tidy. Sun was shining so we sat outside and watched the world go by. Cocktails were £7 and treated like they actually had alcohol in them unlike at other places. Ordered some Dirty Fries as a small snack and the portion size was really good. Some melted cheese would have been a good addition to the dish. Decoration has been done with some thought and attention. Toilets smelled fresh and looked clean.

Very quiet but the drink was good,

Great experience ! Nice people, typic pub with a real History.

I highly recommend the Hatfield for a party venue, the staff are amazing so friendly and helpful. The buffet and cocktails were so lovely and great value for money.

Brian and Connor so friendly, 10/10 recommend , everyone else no, did not match the vibe in the slightest

Make very good cocktails, staff was nice. Even with limited patrons it was a good atmosphere. College area.

Great atmosphere. Great pints with high standard of cleanliness. Food excellent. It is popular for students. They employ doormen to keep order. Very safe.

Young crowd on the night we were there.

The staff are great as is the drink 🍻🍻🍻🍻

Bouncers are very unprofessional, kicked me out instead of the boys that started on me because it was less people to remove. Definitely 1* review worthy with below par bouncers with no conflict resolution skills.

One of the best in Belfast Gary in the brown shoes is a fantastic host!

Great choices and very knowledgeable

Good Guinness, and that was all I needed.

Excellent food. Great service. Great atmosphere.

Great atmosphere good staff great food good thanks

One of the best bars in South Belfast

Was in this pub last night was served all night then the fellas on the door just asked up to leave and they had no reason I wouldn't recommend this pub to any one very shameful thing what they did last night stay away !!!!@@

Very clean good service and follow covid instructions

Period pub loved it great staff

Good atmosphere, pint of Guinness could have been better.

The Pneumatic Park attached to the Hatfield House is one of the most chill bars I've ever been to. Great staff, great drinks, and great craic. Wish I could take the whole place back to London with me.

This was the most amazing beer garden I’ve ever been to! The boys behind the bar were absolute gents and so helpful! Stumbled on the bar by chance and so delighted we did! Amazing cocktails, lovely vibe! The lady in the hellbent food van was so so sweet too! Definitely visit if you get the chance 10/10!

Grand pub. The kids liked the food. Burgers were great and a good selection of beers.

Great spot went yesterday for a get together great food

Bucky burger was outstanding, 1st class service

Was excellent. Curry best ever. Richie gave us insight to history of pub. Will definitely be back

Great pub grub and sports on every screen. Great friendly waiting staff.

Loved it great atmosphere and staff

Spot less clean good service good range of drinks

Had a great evening in the Pneumatic Park ! Our waiter Eoin has been so great all night - a real asset to the team!

Had a great experience in the Pneumatic Park today on a Wednesday afternoon. Owen, our waiter, was absolutely brilliant and is really an asset to the team. So friendly, funny and professional.

This place is brilliant! Great cocktails and fast service, Eoin was a superstar and had us in stitches whilst keeping us in drinks all afternoon! Will definitely come here from now on! Thank you for a great time xx

Brilliant bar great staff great food what more could you ask for 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Love this pub, great atmosphere, excellent service especially Richie 😀

Good bar for a meal and afternoon drink -

Probably One of the best bars Northern Ireland and Belfast - certainly the best bar on the Ormeau Road with prices that don't rip the hole out of ya!! 😁

Get service. Fantastic app and ordering system. Will be back

Great place, well run, great atmosphere for champions league final, deffo recommend.

Great food, great craic, locals unite. Good selection of draft beers, didn't ask for any craft ales so I don't know what they have. It was brilliant to see the staff back and Ciaran at the head of the ship.

Chris was a lovely barman, helped us out the whole night. A credit to Hatfield, great night out I’d highly recommend to anyone !!!

Great staff, food is delicious. Lovely vibe.

Brilliant atmosphere friendly staff n very reasonable price's would recommend 10*

Sat in the outside Pheumatic Park. Nice South African/Dutch BBQ food. They're getting a roof soon.

Many thanks to all the staff who's friendliness and attentiveness made my first visit here a very enjoyable one.. keep up the good work.. 😊

Great outside bar and space between tables inside for food

Will definitely be back the staff were so friendly and the food was delicious
