Belfast, Northern Ireland — Belfast's pub crawl geography is compact: most of its 44 verified pubs sit within a 15-minute walk of each other, split between the Cathedral Quarter and the streets around Great Victoria Street. The Crown Liquor Saloon is the showpiece — a National Trust-owned Victorian gin palace with snug doors and gas lamps — while Kelly's Cellars, pouring since 1720, is where the sessions happen. The Dirty Onion and the Duke of York fill the courtyards between them most evenings. There are 44 verified Irish pubs in Belfast on Craic Map, with photos, opening hours, and features for each.
