Located in a magnificent grade A listed building dating back to the 1880s, Crown Liquor Salon holds a rich history as one of Belfast's iconic Victorian Gin Palaces. Lovingly restored by the National Trust, this restaurant showcases stunning original features that have been preserved for guests to enjoy. Step inside to find a long, red granite-topped altar-style bar, adorned with huge casks and polished brass taps. The mosaic-tiled floor and decorative carved ceiling add to the beauty of this old building. Stained-glass windows etched with fairies, pineapples, fleur-de-lys, and clowns provide a touch of whimsy, while traditional gas lighting adds to the ambience. With its great location near the city's famous Titanic Experience, Crown Liquor Salon Belfast is the perfect place to immerse yourself in history while enjoying a memorable dining experience.

Our snugs were built by Italian craftsmen working in the churches and shipyards around Belfast back in the 1880’s. The view from snug A here shows the privacy they provide with their individually lettered doors whilst still being right in the heart of our beautiful bar.

A pleasure to welcome the wonderful claire.sweeney to the bar on Tuesday night as she stars in Annie over at The Grand Opera House, Belfast. She even took time to sign our visitors book and take a quick selfie with our very own Michael. Thanks Claire and best of luck with the shows 😊🍻🍻

Whilst our full name is the Crown Liquor Saloon most people know us simply as the Crown Bar and we think the 1880’s mosaic floor in our entrance says it beautifully.

The gas lights in our bar need their mantles changing every 4 weeks or so. Fortunately our General Manager Andy isn’t scared of heights and doesn’t mind the bar walk to get them back to their beautiful glowing best.

Built in the 1880’s to provide privacy for Victorian ladies and high society our beautiful wooden snugs still give a quieter private space in our busy bar to enjoy a meal or a drink with friends. Always popular they are on a first come first served basis but we do book a couple of slots each day via our website if you really want to be sure of getting one. Link below

The outside of our bar hints at the elaborate detail inside with polychromatic tiles and wording that would have made it stand out in the smoky industrial streets of Victorian Belfast. These original 1880’s tiles came from Ironbridge in Staffordshire and give the building its unmistakable gin palace look.
