Irene And Nans
Resturant and bar in Brunswick Street that has been arounfd since April 2003.
Named, it is said, after two old ladies who frequented a nearby pub and fancied themselves as glamour queens, I and N?s has its own unique twist on retro glamour.
A large open-plan space, its centrepiece is a long, solid white-stone bar counter lit from beneath in a golden glow. The wall behind it is packed with vintage 50s clocks, while rows of shelves in the standing areas are lined with dusty cameras, radios and gramophones that continue the curiosity shop theme. A 30-seater bistro to one side serves tasty modern European dishes

What happened guys? Used to be one of the better bars in belfast. Food is still up to standerd but unfortunately the surroundings so not!
The venue is generally filthy and the customer serivce is non-existant. The last time I was in it was dead and there were several dirty tables while the bar staff and presumably manager chatted at the end of the bar.
Management seem to have lost interrest and it shows....pity because it used to be one of my favourite spots back in the day...

I ended up in here for lunch on a Saturday and had been curious to try it out for sometime. Whilst the service left a lot to be desired, the food was suprisingly good. I had a chicken caesar salad which was lovely and fresh, an the chicken appeared to be marinated in pesto which was tasty. My boyfriend had a burger which looked good and was served with homemade chips which were really tasty. I must remark on how cheap the drinks were - I think you could get a bottle of wine for about £6 which is fairly unheard of in Belfast. They also do 2 for 1 cocktails all day everyday except for Friday/Saturday nights after 8pm. The atmosphere is grand, didn't blow me away but certainly a decent place for a few drinks and some food. The service, I said, was very slow and ineffecient - I was nearly tempted to clean a few tables myself as the waiter was not so great.
2 meals with a bottle of water, an orange juice and 2 cocktails came to around £24 which I couldn't really complain about. I would visit again.

this place is one of the best spots in belfast, and believe me ther is very few, andy macnally plays great songs u can sing along to on a friday and stevie nicholl plays the best old skool house iv heard on a sat, its dead durin the week but is always busy on the weekend so u can be waitin a while at the bar but u can clearly see the staff r tryin ther hardest, i used to wrk in a bar an sum of the abuse they get is uncalled for, the only bad thing i can say about this is it seems ther tryin to make it in to a wetherspoons, which is great for cheap drink but the crowd is startin to turn, but doormen r good!! over all i would recommend it on a friday r saturday!!

I wonder if any of the people who run these places in Belfast ever read these reviews because there never seems to be any improvement in the venues - if they do I wish they would leave some feedback. My friends and I spend a lot of weekends over in Newcastle Upon Tyne and always have a ball there. Over there you can more or less walk in and out of any club at anytime without all the 'regulars only' rubbish that you get here and it's far better for it. the music there is a mixture of chart and dance classics along with the odd oldy, not the obscure DJ's personal favourites or repeated 70's-80's CD they seem to always play here and in general the service and atitude of staff is far better. I wish clubs here would take a look and realise what it takes to create a thriving nightlife.

The worst pub in the whole of Belfast. Never setting foot in it again. The Aussie barman is a complete and utter ****.

Fairly "hip"... not too busy and a decent selection of drinks!
Bar is done out very nicely and has more charachter than your average gastro bar...
Toilets are very cool!
Bar staff are just fine and didnt have any issues with the doormen either... Altogether a pleasant place!

decent enough bar, but isn't it about time (pun intended) they changed those daft looking clocks?

this is the previous owners son. i would like to point out that it was actually named after my grandmother and aunt who did not frequent a nearby pub.
