Brennan’s Bar has an entrance foyer with steps up to the left that were roped off and the bar to the right. The bar has a black and white checked tiled floor with banquettes under the front windows and up the left wall. In the front right is a snug and the bar runs up the right wall. Standard keg is available. Up above the back bar is a nice curved stain glass feature that was probably part of the original bar before its heart was ripped out. Televisions throughout were showing Champions League football via BT Sport and there was also some background music playing, pick one FFS! The service was polite, but I can’t see myself returning here.

From outside, this looked quite promising, but inside it was rather over modernised for my tastes with loud music competing with televised football and noisy customers. There was plenty of space, despite the upstairs area still being closed.

Sports orientated bar that still has The Beaten Docket written on the chairs and the windows. Standard range of Irish kegs on the bar plus one handpump that claimed it was selling Whitewater Belfast Ale, It wasn't it was selling brown sludge. To be fair the barman pulled the pint, had one look at it and said "Nope, I'm not serving you that". The bar is a fairly ornate affair with several large screens and an upstairs area that was closed on all 3 occasions that we visited last week. We watched the Man Utd vs Scalke 04 match here and ordered some pub grub. The fish, chips & mushy peas were good value with the fish looking like a dolphin in batter. The steak & Guinness hot pot was good as well. There's a real mix of people come in here and it can feel a bit rough and ready at times, but we liked it. Which is why we visited 3 times.
