Robinsons
15 Reviews
Robinsons is five venues in one, each very different so whatever you’re looking for you are sure to find it. The saloon bar can be found at street level and is a great meeting place, leading through to Fibber Magees, a spit and sawdust bar, packed to the rafters with old Irish artifacts and traditional musicians performing every night.
The basement floor is home to BT1, which boasts the funkiest unisex loos in the city, cosy curtained booths and stylish seating.
Upstairs you will discover Bistro where Lunch, Early Evening & Evening Menus are served daily. Finally Roxy Nightclub is situated on the top floor there DJs play dance anthems and retro favourites every Friday and Saturday night.

Has got WAY too expensive for what it provides. Recent comments here are correct. Has gone way down hill, they don't seem to try anymore 'cause they know the place is going to be busy anyhow. (Proximity of Hotels etc.)
Bouncers are out of order, think they own the place. Cause more trouble than they prevent, and are never there when something actually does kick off.
Shame - used to be one of Belfast's best bars.

er who is the manager in the restaurant as this place is going down hill quickly and food was crap. also do the staff work in other bars in town too maybe if they concentrated on one bar they might do their job correctly

well i totally agree with tom's comment although i am friendly with the waiter in the bistro and talk to him everytime im in. the food is fantastic and good value, but there has been a change in menu, although i wasnt afraid to ask why, what i found out was that there is another new team of kitchen staff in and theyre now getting on their feet so expect the menu to be changing shortly... the waiting staff know exactly what they are doing and are extremely friendly and get you what you want; in my experiences there they know more than the management do!!!

Up until recently (say two months ago) the bistro used to serve a fantastic array of delicious and well presented dishes which kept us returning as regular customers. Then something changed, we presume chef/kitchen staff, but I'm now left regretting ever recommending it as an eatery (Ronald McDonald can sleep at night once again). Serious nose dive. Apologies if the kitchen arrangements haven't changed (perhaps theres a flavour/menu fast or something).

Not what it used to be. It used to be great with some nice good friendly bouncers. The last time I was in there with friends the place was full of drunks who should've been thrown out by the bouncers. The old bouncers that were there before the current, never let this happen. Plus it should've never been moved to the top floor, that is what made it look and feel less of a place to be. I haven't been back since. Sorry but you can't get these regulars back. It has become a bad nightclub to go to now and it has been ruined by the people who took over the rains from the old bouncers of the old days. I don't blame the bar staff, I don't blame the management I only place the blame theose bouncers who let the druggies and losers in and drive the decent people away.

OMG, I was just charged £7.30 for a double vodka and redbull...this is no bull! (scuse the pun) I recommend you avoid that particular drink! Unbelievable!

nightclub on the top floor on a sat nite is a bit rough and the music extremely cheesy, however I thought that all the staff (bar staff and bouncers) were really friendly and there wasn't too long a wait

cannot thank the staff doormen and musicians enough for making this one of the most enjoyable places to go any night of the week

If you are into rock music,avoid this place. But the beer is great, and that's all that matters!
