The Crown Liquor Saloon is one of the best bars showing the Six Nations in Belfast. Not only is it an atmospheric boozer, but it's also one that packs a lot of history into its walls and is owned by the National Trust. Here, you can enjoy getting stuck into a pint or two of Guinness while wolfing down a burger and crispy chips at this unique pub in the heart of the city centre.
Join The Tipsy Bird on Ann Street throughout February and March to catch the Six Nations fixtures. It's bound to fill up fast, so book a table for you and your mates and enjoy this quirky venue's cocktail offerings, like the whisky and peach Raunchy Robin or the Baby Flamingo with gin and prosecco. There's also a wide selection of beers and soft drinks too, for those less fond of a bubbly drink.
For the best places to watch The Six Nations in Belfast, Franklins is screening all the rugby games in style. Along with a bustling atmosphere and cosy seating, you can expect the holy trinity - huge HD screens, freshly pulled pints and stacked burgers.
When it comes to the Six Nations fixtures in Belfast, you can catch all the action at Laverys. The sports bar is home to Ireland's largest pool room if you fancy playing a few games while watching the rugby, or you can sink your teeth into a yummy burger and wash it down with a refreshing pint.
Fronting four private rooms for hire and pool tables, Ulster Sports Club is definitely a great place to watch the rugby. Whether you're an Ireland fan or rooting for another team, this joint is ideal for settling in and sipping on wine, beer and cocktails.
As Fibber Magee's serves as one of the best pubs showing the Six Nations, it's a brilliant shout for this list. The cosy spot boasts a lounge and pool loft, not to mention huge TV screens, so you can watch every last minute of the big game.
Rugby fanatics rejoice. Town Square is an excellent watering hole to watch the Six Nations, thanks to its scrumptious scran, like burgers, wings and plenty of fries as well as cocktails (our fave is the espresso s'moretini) on offer.
