Whites in Belfast

Such a friendly place. Best pint of Guinness I've had in Belfast

traditional Irish tavern, very authentic, sometimes there are also traditional musicians

We learned that this place is the first pub in Belfast opened at 1630 and wanted to try the place. Such a lovely atmosphere. The beers and food(we tried irish stew) was excellent. The staff was kind and helpful. You should definitely come and visit if u have a time

Great food and lovely open fire

Friendly warm bar, great atmosphere, decent Guinness

Excellent food and ambience. Historic place to visit.

Great place, 3 totally separate and different drinking areas.

A must visit for a pint of the black stuff!

Belfast's oldest pub. Great food, lovely service, live music and Guinness.

First time we went to whites and last time Was queuing at the bar I slightly raised my palm to get attention to be served very polite like And this tiny little hobbit behind the bar with a beard half my age and said if you want to get served around here you won't by raising yiur hand Have you ever heard the likes of it so rude What do you do stand there and give no attention and let the bar staff pick and choose who they want to serve Disgusting

There's an old part and a new part. The old part has all the atmosphere.

Whites is a great traditional Belfast bar with an atmosphere that matches. It can be very busy at times as it is a popular venue. The only reason for my three star service rating is because when its busy it really needs to have more staff serving behind the bar! It is a good spot for all ages but if you want a seat get in early 😉

We visited as part of a 60th birthday celebration. Yulia was amazing, made us incredible cocktails all afternoon and went out of her way to suggest other things we might like. We are now addicted to a Clover Club! Thank you so much for being so lovely x

Great place for lunch in Belfast with that old world charm. Service is spot on and food is great. This is a very popular spot so if you haven't booked don't be disappointed if you can't get a table. If there is a downside, and I'm just being picky, the music through the speakers is quite loud and intrusive at times.

A bar full of magic that only gets better with the excellent attention of the staff.

The real deal. Best pub we went to in Belfast. Impressive food too. The beef cheeeks were tender, the fish and chips fluffy. Would recommend a visit. Oldest tavern in Belfast.

It's a lovely wee pub with a traditional Irish atmosphere akin to pubs in the likes of donegal.

I went to whites to meet other friends and they refused me entry. They sited I was too drunk despite me trying my best to prove otherwise. No matter what I said and how many conversations I had their words were “we can’t stray from the opinion of the original colleague”. This colleague was working the side door, and when we walked past he stuck the middle finger up at us and when we questioned it, said nothing. A despicable establishment. Prejudice against young girls.

It's a great place, a nice atmosphere. Very cosy and has an irish pub charm. We visited this place for the company's christmas party. The food was good, mostly traditional. I am vegetarian, so there were decent items for vegetarians. Drinks on offer is just like any typical irish pub. Visit recommended if you like proper snug old irish pub.

Excellent!! Well done Whites. Your staff are the BEST 👌

Came here with my BIL and family. They had a Guinness while enjoying the rustic old pub. Great music, fantastic space and really cool decor all over. This is basically how I imagine the 1800s looking like. Really cool. The staff was lovely too!

Wonderful pub full of character and great atmosphere. Lovely welcoming open fire that would want you to stay all day.Friendly staff and great beer garden and lots of old money notes adorn the ceilings.Will be back Slainte

Great traditional pub in the heart of Dublin.

Lovely pub. Great Guinness. Smashing food.

Whites is a great pub. I opted to frequent Whites Tavern with a friend visiting from Scotland. We enjoyed copious amounts of stout in a warm and friendly atmosphere—thoroughly enjoyed it! They also have a dedicated Guinness bar, which I’ve been to before—it’s definitely worth checking out if you love a good pint. Certainly a great spot to visit if you’re in Belfast for a short break. Just be aware, the Guinness is on the pricey side.

Lively place. Fantastic fish and chips and excellent Guinness.

My favourite bar in Belfast ruined by terrible bar staff. It must be a lack of training or new staff and can be fixed but wearing a queen's university hoody while working behind the middle bar and having such terrible behaviour reflects poorly on the bar and the university.

We always enjoy Whites, but PLEASE address the really poor toilets. Even males like to have a working hand dryer. The staff are excellent and the food is good enough, but these toilets are awful. The Harp Bar is the standard you should be aiming for.

Arrived last weekend to watch the rugby, went early specifically to secure a seat, as a man over 60 i need a seat. Managed to secure a stool out in the covered area, watched the Scotland game until 10 min before the Ireland game kickoff only to watch two staff members taking stools from 5 of us sitting on them. I would not recommend this place. Oh, spoke to a woman also chasing her deposit back from staff at the bar, she paid to secure a table only to find the £50 had not been taken off her bio. I wont go back. Plenty of other places in the city to watch the game.

Very nice food, I had the creamy chowder & my colleague had the fish & chips. Big portions! And a nice cozy tavern

Great pub in the heart of Belfast.

Great history here. Fun place for a pint. Great courtyard/outdoor area in the alley. Research the place before you go and you’ll appreciate it even more.

Great atmosphere however I was charged £7 for a blackcurrant and soda, when I questioned it I was told it was £3 for a small bottle of soda water and £1 for a dash of blackcurrant cordial. Daylight robbery. Guinness was poor too

Mi hermano gemelo y yo estábamos en un pub dando vueltas por esta parte de la ciudad cuando decidimos pasar por Whites Tavern y qué gran hallazgo. Entrando y sabía que disfrutaría de mi visita aquí, el interior es oscuro y acogedor, a la luz de las velas, una barra de servicio de madera maciza domina la sala principal, decoración y mobiliario pubby y un montón de opciones de asientos repartidos por todo este pub tanto dentro como fuera en su patio, que también tiene un bar de servicio muy atractivo, es solo un pub muy bueno para relajarse. Estábamos aquí en una noche de enero amargamente frío, pub estaba ocupado con un gran ambiente, pedimos Heverlee pilsner, estos se sirven en excelentes condiciones siendo helado frío y espumoso, nos relajamos y empapamos de la gran vibra en este pub ocupado y popular mientras bebíamos nuestras cervezas. Mi cerveza era muy buena, un pilsner dorado, de lúpulo, toques de toffee, un delicioso aroma y regusto con un suave acabado crujiente, muy fácil de beber sobre todo cuando se sirve frío helado como en este pub, era tan bueno estar en un pub tan encantador disfrutando de una cerveza de calidad y se sentó con mi hermano gemelo, mejor compañero de cerveza del mundo. Realmente disfrutamos de nuestras cervezas aquí antes de seguir adelante y aunque nuestra visita fue solo fugaz para una primera visita a White's Tavern nos lo pasamos muy bien. Whites Tavern es fácil de localizar a lo largo de Winecellar Entry. El horario de apertura es; Lunes a jueves, 11. 30 am hasta la 1 am. Viernes y sábado, 11. 30 am hasta las 2 am. Domingo, 11. 30 am hasta la 1 am. Vale la pena comprobar si estás en la zona o planeando unas vacaciones en Belfast.

En nuestro viaje de 3 días a Belfast mi gemelo y yo visitamos algunos pubs increíbles y uno de los mejores pubs que visitamos fue White's Tavern'an pub antiguo histórico que data de 1630 por lo que es el pub más antiguo de Belfast. Situado en Winecellar Entry'este pub era en mi opinión uno de los mejores pubs que visitamos y uno de los más concurridos. El pub en sí tiene un interior magnífico que se ve increíble. Desde su techo con vigas y suelos de piedra y muchos accesorios y características interesantes y un montón de buenas opciones de asientos. Jueves y domingo hay música en vivo y muestran deportes en vivo. Ofrecen una buena gama de comida y bebidas y este lugar estaba lleno cuando fuimos aquí temprano en la noche. Mi gemelo y yo visitamos pubs históricos y este está ahí arriba con el que visitamos en nuestra ciudad natal de Liverpool. Cuando visitamos aquí tuvimos unas pintas de cervezas de la fábrica de cerveza Five Lamps'una cerveza local fantástica que estaban perfectamente servidos y a buen precio teniendo en cuenta el pub en el que estábamos y donde se encuentra. Es un pub magnífico y un pub muy histórico en una zona magnífica de Belfast y es un pub que vale la pena visitar si alguna vez en esta animada ciudad. (Esta es mi reseña de 1 calle de White's Tavern). Horario de apertura. Lunes - Domingo - 12. 00 - 01 . 00 . Domingo - 12. 00 - 00 . 00 . Transporte público. Parada de autobús.

Entered at 6pm on a wet windy Sunday night to be hugely disappointed that the fire wasn't lit!!!.we didn't stay!.....entered next day for lunch fire was beautiful!..but service was unpleasant, proseccos were flat and not overly chilled!..staff were defensive to change!.....besides that we love this bar, when you hit ot at the right time.

Irish Stew magnificent, great atmosphere and friendly

Nice pub but was somewhat disappointed it's quite expen.sive for drinks which is a sign of the times but when one is paying these prices I would expect a little better in terms of cleanliness it could do with some improvement, counter filthy I had to get a cloth myself not great

Lovely evening, good food & drinks and atmosphere

A charming and historic tavern with great atmosphere! We visited during Thanksgiving and were thrilled to see turkey on the menu! It was a great experience to visit one of the oldest taverns in Belfast, and the atmosphere truly lived up to its reputation. A very charming and welcoming place—perfect for a cozy meal!

We were a bit of an awkward table and fannied about a lot at the start, unsure even if we were going to stay. Waiter handled it brilliantly. Very patient and full of knowledge. Food was excellent. Irish stew was massive and everyone else’s food looked brilliant. 4 full bellies, 4 empty plates. Will definitely be back.

Servicio impactante, pidió una pinta cuando el bar no estaba ocupado y fue inmediatamente desentendido y hecho esperar por más de 10 minutos. Luego pedí un menú para pedir comida, nuevamente tuve que esperar solo para que me dijeran que no se serviría comida porque la mesa había sido reservada para las 5 PM mientras que eran las 3 PM. No regresará, el lugar solía tener estándares pero claro ver que se cae por su proceso de contratación, o la falta de.

It's a bit of a tourist trap these days. I still like the old bar at the back with the fire and the pints of Guinness are still good tbf, just a bit expensive but worth hitting for one.

Amazing Sunday roast. Amazing bangers and Mash.

Open fire, traditional Irish atmosphere- and good beer 🍻

What an amazing and cool bar! You will not be disappointed to grab a Guinness here

Busy, but a good resteraunt, great quality food!

Absolutely love this place - by far the nicest traditional pub in the city. Atmosphere is unrivalled

Un gran pub tradicional y acogedor, escondido en un pequeño patio en el centro de la ciudad. El personal es muy amable y genial con el servicio proactivo, y sentarse en el bar sigue siendo un placer cuando está demasiado ocupado para encontrar una mesa. La música de fondo se mantiene tradicional y hay un menú de comida decente si necesitas algo que acompañe la decente gama de bebidas que se ofrecen. Un pub encantador y uno al que sin duda volveré!

One of the best pints of Guinness we've had 👌🏻 friendly bar staff and absolutely amazing bar split into 4

A great traditional and friendly pub, tucked away in a small courtyard in the centre of the city. The staff are so friendly and great with the proactive service, and sitting at the bar remains a treat when it’s too busy to find a table. The background music is kept traditional and there’s a decent food menu if you need something to accompany the decent range of drinks on offer. A lovely pub and one I’ll certainly be returning to!

Not up to usual standards , rubbish piled up outside , noisy brash crowd and unfriendly bar staff , sorry.

Nice background classic pub vibe music with a warm and cosy fire. Quick service at the bar. Food was not being served unless booked. Very popular place and tables can be hard to grab, but great if one is acquired!

Liveky pint abd atmosphere. Need more staff as they were over worked

Great atmosphere and friendly staff! I had a delicious Guinness and enjoyed the live music. It was a great way to spend an evening with friends. I highly recommend this pub to anyone looking for a good time in Belfast.

Great for a pint of Guinness and nice staff, food is top notch too. pay this place a visit, relax and enjoy) 💗

Disappointed they no longer sell pints of harp, now lost a customer despite good food and service.

The 2 female staff based in the tavern on the bar were extremely rude, they did not appear interested, did not smile and ignored us until we had to approach them after several minutes waiting to be seated despite having a booking and them walking past us on several occasions. Despite booking for for they did not bring us a menu for around 15 minutes which resulting in us having to go and ask for one. The area in which we were sat was in a large puddle that had come in from outside, this was not attempted to be cleaned. Food was ordered, the gent who brought the food out was polite, pleasant and extremely professional, food was amazing this could not be faulted, just let down by the bar staff who made this experience unpleasant

Loved the atmosphere and sat right by the fire. The stew was just like my Ma’s!

Old Irish pub in the city. Great pints and atmosphere

Great food great service great social scene

Oldest pub in Belfast .Came about midday midweek and had the place to myself gets really busy later in afternoon and evening Nice big open fire and great pint of Guinness Be aware theres a whites Guinness bar on the main street the old pub is down the alley Food was also good massive portions and plenty of choice Bonus was being dog freindly hard to find a place in city centre

Best irish stew and chowder ever

Lovely quaint pub. Love going here and a beer garden and another pub beside it.

Basic selection, but all i needed was Guinness anyway and it was perfect. Lovely little cosy snug like part just off the main venue. I will be back for more. Bartender was cool Cant remember his name, but glasses and was working Sun 24th Nov. Nice one !!

Didn't know his wifi password, even for an oversea's visitor. Cant be impressed with zero effort. Dont worry, I'll find my own taxi.

Ordered 2 kraken and coke and didn’t realise the bartender gave us roast coffee kraken until we sat down to drink them and when I went back to ask for 2 normal ones he made me pay for them . Highly disappointed as this is not what I asked for ! Money not well spent but a cute bar !

Fantastic pub with a real authenticity about it. Had the Irish Stew and portion size was mega. Music on too so has it all.

I was in whites tavern for lunch and I had the vegetarian stew. I've been a vegetarian for nearly 35 years and it was one of the nicest meals I've had. Not only that but the staff were very friendly and helpful, which added to the relaxing atmosphere, I often walk past without going in but after this I will definitely be back!

Fantastic private event for 50 in the Oyster Room. From start to finish the quality of the service, food and “refreshments” surpassed all expectations. Thank you!

Absolutely astonishing place. This is four pubs in one! At the front is a locals bar & in the middle is a long hall that turns into a club vibe into the wee small hours. To the right is a modern bistro type bar with cubicles, log store & fantastic lighting against bare brick. The real star, however, is the olde worlde very low lit bar to the left down the alley with a real fire & real atmosphere. The subtle Christmas decorations throughout & behind the bar added even more cosiness. This is the type of place you could hide for hours in on a wintry day. Didn't try the food this time but wouldn't hesitate. Whoever updated & designed the interior for these bars deserves a medal in my opinion because this is how it should be done - only in Ireland!

Such a great place. Oldest in Belfast. Small,, local and original. Go!

Tucked away down a back lane this is a proper snug old pub. Very narrow, coal fire blazing. Great atmosphere. Good selection of drinks and excellent pub food. Highly recommend the chicken stack, served with creamy mash, cherry tomatoes crunchy onions on top and peppercorn sauce. Also the pie of the day (chicken ham leek and mushroom today) was delicious. The house band, was 5 guys just sitting at one of the tables playing Irish music! No stage or anything, brilliant! Really worth a visit.

Small but very friendly pub, got a lovely Irish coffee.

Excellent little pub, food good, staff Excellent, definitely be back 😋

Poor food, prices above average and background music that doesn't allow you to talk. Disappointing

Booked for a family Sunday dinner and a disappointment from the start. It's a whole story to tell, but I won't be back never. Can't rate the food cos we walked out due to the extreme noise of the place. Is it a restaurant or a football venue?, the staff don't even know, as they agreed with us. Didn't even finish our drinks. We just went

At a private party upstairs where drink was really overpriced and bar staff couldn't be less helpful

Service and food excellent, staff really helpful, highly recommend would definitely return

Fue para el menú del domingo Cuando llegó la factura no mostraba reducciones de menú establecidas Cuando se desafió el servidor simplemente no se molestó y nos dejó sin resolución Eventualmente una señora vino y en lugar de disculparse nos dijo que el menú estaba mal - parecía esperar que paguemos el precio completo y solo cuando se le dijo que no era nuestra culpa se enmendó a la factura Hubo muchas otras cuestiones Todo lo que diría es que el personal no está interesado en la atención al cliente porque viven de la reputación de pub No suelo leer y seguir reseñas pero si las ignoras puede que vivas para lamentarlo y no aprendan

Our group had great food, great craic and enjoyed the music. I had an issue with the bill which only occurred to me the following day and they sorted it immediately, no fuss. Top marks to the staff!!!

Very tasty food and the service was also nice. The atmosphere corresponds to a tavern with live sports broadcasts.

Very atmospheric and olde worlde. They serve a very good Guinness.

Beautiful but small place (usually full of people)

Popped in for a drink. Great little pub, an open fire. Lots to choose from. They do food, but we didn't have anything.

Wonderful dining experience for dinner at the Whites Tavern! It boasts as the oldest tavern in Belfast, and has such a charming atmosphere, there is a wood and coal fire in the dining area that gives off a nice aroma through the pub. The seafood chowder was the best I’ve had and the sticky toffee was delightful!

A true legend in the realm of diamonds in the dark of the city's must experience nite spots. The soul rejuvenating olfactory embrace of the roaring fire could heal the tortured mind. Came for the whiskey stop recommendation, stayed for the courtyard buzz.

Drinks over priced, bland, poor pint. Barman not the most helpful

Terrible experiencia aquí, que realmente nos sorprendió como se recomendó. No están atentos en absoluto. Tener que pedir cosas como menús, y si nos pueden servir nos hacía sentir como si nos hubieran olvidado, y no estaba tan ocupado. Para añadir a esto, a pesar de que al resto de la mesa les habían servido su comida, los míos no vinieron y antes de que pudiera preguntar, se habían ido. Tuve que preguntar dónde estaba, 15 minutos después llegó. No es genial. Bill se nos acercó y el camarero olía muy mal.

Customer service was brilliant and the food was lovely! My first visit in NI and I wanted to try traditional Irish food. I was told the chicken is halal which was a pleasant surprise. I was recommended the place by a few people and I ordered a lychee peach mocktail which was delicious. I also had an Irish stew which was tasty.

Cozy and unique like the people in this city. Must go !!!

We had dinner, with the inevitable pint of Guinness and Hamburger. The atmosphere is serene, you can enjoy the TV broadcasting sports or excellent music. Highly recommended!!

Absolutely amazing food!! Proper tavern with a real fire, and old school charm. I’m gluten intolerant and the menu was clear and adaptable for me. Had the BEST sausage mash and gravy!! Highly recommended

Had a great evening here last night Saturday. The place was buzzing with live music. Had 4 visitors up from the south of Ireland and they couldn’t believe how great this was too. Staff all lovely and atmosphere 5 out of 5.

Live singer with guitar who was absolutely fantastic!.Toilets could do with regular cleaning..Busy Wednesday night with students so staff rushed off their feet really although service with a smile😊

Not busy at all but service very slow. Food ok but not exceptional

Open and fire and a Guinness....I'll be back

Brilliant atmospheric old pub down a back alley in the heart of Belfast.

Food was very reasonably priced and delicious great atmosphere

I'm putting this up not for me but for the loads of Americans that came in. I know there is good guinness here and one of the reasons I call in but to see equal care given to foreign visitors was very nice. Everyone upstairs who ordered one will be getting a superb pint.
