Do you even get Murphy's on pump anywhere in Belfast? I thought it was more a Southern, or specifically Cork thing. I know a lot of people see Guinness as the embodiment of Irishness, but in reality, wasn't Arthur Anglo-Irish and very prejudiced against the native Dublin Irish Catholics. I think you couldn't work at Guinness if you were Catholic until maybe the 1960s.. in fact, I think you even got sacked if you were a Protestant who married a Catholic.

It’s only “rough” because of the history and the fears/prejudices of people who live here. If you’d went to the Falls Road you would have got the same warm welcome even in the dingiest spots. Avoid politics and it’s rare you’ll get hassle in any bar. Thanks for visiting!

Facts!. 99.9% of people are great decent hard working caring people. im from the falls. Like most political conflicts it all started from bronze-age god beliefs that have festered through every country in the world. these then became political and powe rbased. the science age is slowly changing things. I grew up catholic like someone who grew up on the shankill protestant. im 41 but the younger ones on both sides grow up able to think for themselves and realise that theres no difference. we are all just humans.

Never had any grief whatsoever. I love the warm hospitable people who make me feel welcome, and I've met my fair share of fantastic chaps from both sides of the "fence".

As a Catholic just in the southern side of the border, i think if I went into any of the bars in the shankhill road I'd not feel particularly safe with my accent, but that's not me being prejudice as I'm honestly not. But I know if a Protestant went into a Catholic bar they'd feel the exact same. Which is a shame as end of day we are all just the same people when you take religion and politics out of it. I don't see things changing anytime soon though unfortunately as you have idiots on both sides who continue to keep that hatred and bigotry alive.

You'll get a pint of Beamish in the Sunflower in Belfast. And lovely it is too. Btw, in the crown, do you mean it was 12 quid for the two? Surely not £12 a pint?!

I live in Dublin and drink alot of Guinness, I’ve never heard of the bartender letting it settle once it’s fully poured, in Dublin the home of the drink, they hand it over straight away and you just wait for it to settle yourself. I think if it’s busy the Dublin method is better, but if the pub is not that busy the Belfast method is nice.

In terms of the Guinness, there are Guinness 'quality teams' who travel around pubs to do checks on the quality of the pints and provide training for staff to make sure they're pouring the pints properly! God knows if it's some placebo effect, but I definitely think you can taste the difference between a well poured pint and a badly poured pint!

You would be welcome, but like most local pubs, I wouldn't advise going after 10pm on a Friday or Saturday night That's the same with all local pubs the world over. They can tell who isn't a local Remember that many,many years ago strangers used to walk into pubs, have a quick pint, leave a bag under a table and walk out. Bang And this was all over belfast So a little suspicion of strangers is still there, especially after a night of drinking. The people of the shankill and the falls, are the salt of the earth, you would be safe and welcome everywhere, but maybe best before 6-7pm lol
