Ryan's Bar And Restaurant - Belfast

This pub is always a popular spot so Id say book, especially now due to COVID restrictions. Popular with a range of clients from students through to older locals. Not really a family place but there plenty else around if that's what you require. Despite the colourful mural on the outside it's rather plain inside. Reflects the offering. Serves a menu of around 4 veg vegan options, including Boxty a kind of potato pancake and a veggie burger plus an array of sides. Not a huge variety but solid enough and portions OK. Also has fully stocked bar with the usual diageo stuff Guiness on the pumps. Rotation of desert offerings too. I got the meal deal, 2 courses for £11 if memory serves, wasn't excellent but wasn't bad. Consider this to be a benchmark offering and not a bad place to eat if you want something fairly casual and pint. Basically MOR all round.

Here there were helpful friendly staff, a good glass of Guinness, and a glass of Chardonnay and a tasty chicken supreme!

The meal was as delicious as always here. I always get the same things but tonight the side came out wrong had to wait for it to be replaced. It wasn'too long thankfully as our meals were sitting meantime. Thank you Chef. Buy then had to ask for salt vinegar as none were offered. Only vinegar came.so I made do ate my meal. Compliments, as ever to the chef. Delicious! The dessert was lovely too as ordered. Friendly staff not as busy as it had always been in the past but maybe we were too early. I can highly recommend the food will be back. Was celebrating my husband's birthday as we were away at the time.

This is the nicest, best priced bar in Northern Ireland. The wings are the nicest I've ever had over 4 continents. Staff always friendly and the Guinness is superb. 11/10 6 Stars.

We called in on an afternoon for a drink and then returned for meals on a Saturday and Sunday (we were visiting the city). The welcome was warm and friendly. Our evening meal on Saturday was nice both starters of Wings and Garlic Ciabatta were very nice. My Tempura Chicken was nice with a crispy tempura coating. My wifes chicken burger was ok but the flavour was lost amongst a strong Scirachi coating. On Sunday we had the roast beef dinner, the beef was very good and tender. We would have liked a bit more veg as the small piece of savoy cabbage and a finger each of parsnip and carrot left us wanting. The Yorkshire pudding was a bit small and pale. The Bannoffee pie was fabulous and I would have eaten another. The staff were very good, very attentive and full of chat and smiles. Having read many of the previous reviews I find it disappointing that the owner has not responded to them and has not addressed what appears to be repetitive complaints. Overall we enjoyed the bar and the atmosphere.
