Top Belfast Dining Experiences

Join Sam, your guide, on our quest to discover the ultimate spirit. Our bar is stocked exclusively with single cask, single malt whisk(e)y from the greatest bottlers in the world. We are looking for explorers and those curious to discover the extraordinary. You need not work in the drinks industry, drink from crystal decanters or have discovered a lost distillery. While pleasure-seeking continually inspires our exploration, we aim to uncover authentic intelligence so that we might succeed in our endeavour.

Experience one of Belfast’s most unique comedy nights at Craic The Gong, hosted at The Spaniard in the Cathedral Quarter. This interactive show runs every Wednesday and Sunday, plus the 2nd and 4th Tuesday of each month. This is not a typical stand-up show. Comedians take to the stage, but if they don’t win over the crowd, they risk being “gonged” off early. The power is in your hands, making every show fast-paced, unpredictable, and completely different every time. Enjoy a lively atmosphere in an intimate venue, with a mix of rising talent, seasoned performers, and unexpected moments throughout the night. Whether you’re visiting Belfast or looking for something different, this experience guarantees big laughs and a night you won’t forget.
