Belfast is a haven for barflies. Swing by the Victorian-style Crown Liquor Saloon for some superbly good drinks. The chic cocktail bar at the Merchant Hotel is another gem worth a mention. The Duke of York also has a meaty share of patron for its unique history. Stop at one of these places and be sure to order a sizzling cocktail along with a side dish of your choice, while the house music being played in the background will ensure time flies without you being aware of it.
