The Taphouse
15 Reviews
The Fly closed for good on Saturday 29th September 2007 with one amazing party and end of an era.
On Friday the 30th November the ground floor level will be re opened as The TapHouse, which will be a old traditional style pub showing all the big sports games and serving a good selection of food to suit most tastes.
The 1st and 2nd floors have been created into Scratch, a modern smooth stylish nightclub bringing a new dimension to clubbing in belfast open wednesday to sunday night from 9pm til late.
The club upstairs is called Scratch.

was there on a saturday, good night out. Bar staff my be slow but friendly.What do people expect in a busy club, if ya dont like it dont go!
Dancers are Shit! They used to be the dancers in the beach club and they where shit then to. Get rid of them and get better dancers in, their not good for business and not good for punters to have to look at! If your gona use the beach club dancers get the orginals back!
Good club, good music will defo be back

Great place to go for a few drinks. I preferred the way it was done up before but the new style is growing on me. Have to disagree with people who say the bar staff are useless, I found they were more than helpful and the cocktails we tasted were delicious! Keep up the good work!

This place (Scratch) is a disgrace for getting served drinks at the bar, they only serve the prettiest MEN first!!!!! YOu could wait a good half hour on a drink, and in the meantime have a fight with people at the bar who say they were there before you, its very badly staffed and they are very poorly trained......
But if you wanted to be treated badly this is the place to go.
PK the DJ very good tho!

At 28 years old, i felt old and out of place... the place was "SWARMING" (excuse the pun!!) with 18 year old "wigga's"... all being cool while listening to Jay Z and Akon. Not my cup'o tea!
I was forced to endure a whole night in there due to friends not being bothered to find a new spot (seeing as we'd SOMEHOW got seats) Even so, i spent the entire night in the bar que.. once served, i'd LITERALLY re-join the que.. and id STILL be out of drink before getting served again!
Shocking!
Toilets: If you could get in there?? not bad.
Note: Charged to get in too for the privalidge of all the above.

This is a Review of the New Fly - Tap House or whatever you call it! Absolutly terrible! Nothing has changed, still let in far too many people and to charge a £5 in for that on a saturday night is a disgrace! 2 people at the top bar serving who where so slow it was unbelievable! Waited 30 min to get a drink the first time, was waiting about the same length again and couldnt get a drink anywhere in the place! Far too busy! Full of pretentious woman sipping cocktails who thought they where something special!
Avoid this place like the plague, absolutly awful! Ill not be back!

Went there with my best friend. A bouncer with an ear ring decided to play the hard lad by not letting me back up to were I was after returning from the bathroom. He was very rude, despite telling him that my friends are up there. The bouncer was very, very rude. I guess decent people can't be allowed to have fun in his eyes. I will not be back there and really hope they get better bouncers who actually give a damn about those punters in those nightclubs, because it is the people who come from their homes and spend at least 40 to 80 pounds on drink and have a good time. It pays their wages, keeps them a job and puts food in their mouths. People who act like that makes the bussiness look very bad. I go out to have a good time not to be treated with the most disrespect. I'd advise people to advoid this place.
The place is too small, it should really be re-designed. The floors are sticky and the toliets are more like it was still under construction and really needs to have the pipes checked. Really, that would put them out of bussiness if the heath and safty people walked in.

There always seems to be a mixture of people at the Fly so I agree with the comments below. There isn't a dancefloor as such but decent night out on Saturdays. Needs a cloakroom permanently

How they can justify charging ?3.00 admission on a Saturday night beats me. Most of the other bars in the City Centre have djs and are free entry.
No wonder the downstairs bar was practically empty on the night we went.
