The Garrick, Belfast

Small ornate bar with some booths to the left as you enter all with smart leather couches. There were a few people in when we called, late afternoon on a Thursday, but it was deathly quiet, almost like a library. Most of the clientele were single older men reading papers. It's that kind of place. Even the TV was off which is very unusual for a Belfast bar. The barmaid wasn't particularly welcoming, almost as if we had interupted her snooze. Standard range of Irish kegs on the bar, so I had a Guinness, which was OK. We had to move on after one though to prove that life was still going on outside.

Very nice bar indeed, very ornate
