Hipsters, quipsters, and occasional visiting A-listers seeking to score cool kid points, seek out this University/Ormeau Road area hangout, making it Belfast’s premier quirky boho enclave. Dimly lit with mismatched furniture, vintage-shop light shades, fairy lights and charity shop finds, the ambience is half student flat, half juke joint, and the opening hours are somewhat fluid, depending on what’s on. It keeps low-key so check the website for listings, but expect anything from artsy club nights to pop-up cinemas and cult bands. Owned by Belfast DJ and producer David Holmes and beloved by those-in-the-know, it’s a hipster alternative to the city's more commercial offerings and that’s no bad thing.
