My husband and I visited here on a Wednesday night and we thought it would be very quiet but not at all. The band started at 10.30pm and played til after 12.30. Great atmosphere, people were really enjoyed the music etc. The Cathedral Quarter is a nice spot to visit if you are in Belfast Would definitely recommend a visit

We were supposed to be seeing a band in the larger concert hall upstairs but the gig was cancelled. We still went to Belfast anyway and went to The Empire just to see what it was like. Glad we did. Great atmosphere, friendly staff and brilliant live music. It's in the University area of the city near to Botanic train station. We went on a Sunday night, not really expecting much to be on because people are back in work on the Monday. They must go in later in Belfast. The place was bouncing. A good selection of beers and they had lots of large screens dotted around the place. They show all the live sports. By the end of the night people were up dancing all over the place. Just a really friendly pub/venue with a great feeling about it.
10. Peadar O'Donnells Bar
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 186 reviews
Peadar O'Donnels, the home of Live traditional & contemporary music in Derry. On our premises we have 3 different bars – Peadar O’Donnells, the Gweedore Bar and Fifty Seven Waterloo St. Peadars is known throughout the world and is a must visit location for the many tourists that flock to Derry in ever increasing numbers. We are famous for, among other things, our live music which is largely organised but has regular impromptu sessions from either local musicians or visiting performers. Whichever of our bars you would like to visit, you are guaranteed a warm welcome, a good time and the best pint of Guinness in Derry!

A group of my friends and myself wher in this little bar today 19th of January after a night out we thought we would go for the cure, just one for the road home, but little did we know we would still be there 3hours into the day, we first landed in and there was a barman behind the bar and was nothing but polite, we felt sorry for the young fella as he said he was up watching the McGregor fight and that’s how it all started, we started to slag each other the 7 of us and was giving it straight back, Cormac (the bar man) lifted everyone’s spirits he even managed to sell to souvenir t-shirts and there Derry pins to us, he is an Huge asset to this bar. This is why I would highly recommend going to visit this bar, from the words of Cormac himself “somethings cannot be taught” and he was true he’s a true old style bar man to who you can sit and just have a few pints and laughs with. So thank you to Cormac for everything you did for us and lifting 7 Hungover people. Top Class
