The Highway Inn Bar & Kitchen

Reviewed By Denboy1

This is probably Lisburn's secret hideaway, you get a wonderful freshly cooked and piping hot breakfast that is good value, prompt and friendly service served each day + choice of popular lunch meals from 10-2pm On a Tuesday (market day) pensioners get a 5 pice cooked breakfast inc. tea or coffee for £3.50 each, now that is a great deal!! This pub & kitchen is run by a charity, Lisburn Community Inns and should be supported Would highly recommend

The Front Page Bar

Reviewed By TA-BELFAST - Belfast, United Kingdom

Called into The Front Page for a few pints of Stout (Guinness). What a spot. On walking in; warmly welcome with nice heat and ambience, and what seems to be a nice yet regular local pub clientele with some great craic. Would def recommend this pub which is listed as “The Community Pub of the Year” which it clearly it seems to be. Visiting Ballymena ... give it a try, you’ll be made most welcome ! Go Team Front Page - well done you lot ! Be back soon !

Waterfall Bar

Reviewed By BoardingPass575337 - Carnlough, United Kingdom

I visited the Waterfall on New Year's Day with family and friends. Being NYD it was quite crowded but this added to the atmosphere. There was a good mix of ages there, from 18-80. On this occasion there was live music from 2-8, followed by a disco. The bar has entertainment every Saturday and Sunday. The pool room is bedecked in Celtic regalia

The Rock Bar

Reviewed By michaeloharan - County Dublin, Ireland

We arrived in Belfast on Sunday 16th, did the Black Cab tour and then off to the Rock Bar Sunday evening for the Rebel songs. What a fantastic evening. The people in the bar were out of this world. One lad came up to us and after another lad was chatting to us just wanted to make sure all was ok. Another lad came over and made sure my wife and I had seats. Then the music. So proud to be part of a great evening. For sure we will be back.

Matties Meeting House

Reviewed By Murpets - Columbia, United States

Every bit of food we had there the two times we popped in was perfect...the steak, the Guinness Pie, Mattie's chicken, the champ...the beer is cold and the staff is great. Nothing fancy here, it feels like sitting in your family dining room. The locals were kind and warm to the Americans that couldn't quite figure out which doors to go through! Good laughs had here with ice cold beer.
