Fibber Magee's is an ok bar as is Robinsons, The Crown and The Beaten Docket which are all beside it. They are not great bars, just ok ones and are most usually full of tourists and workers from nearby civil service buildings.
In my opinion, the bar opposite the Travelodge, Irenes and Nans is much better as is Bar Bacca around the corner from it.
Loads of good bars in Belfast, particularly around the Cathedral quarter where The John Hewitt is such as The Spaniard, The Cloth Ear, The Duke of York, The Pothouse, The Northern Whig.

La Lea, Belfast's most prestigious nightclub, threw open its doors in 2001 and has enjoyed enormous success ever since.
This unique, elegant and truly impressive space has a sumptuous decorative style which makes reference to both classic design and modern innovation, with a rich seam of the exotic featuring strongly too. A large Buddha head presides over the dance floor, incense burns, and exotic flowers decorate both bars in the main club. The eminently stylish and utterly exclusive private members' bar is styled to mirror the interior of a Bedouin tent.
Everything from the sound system to the lighting in La Lea is state of the art. The quality of the surroundings, in terms of both style and comfort, confirm that the designers (Dublin based firm O'Donnell O'Neill) have more than met the brief given them - to make La Lea the most beautiful club in Ireland. A strict door policy ensures that the elegant interior fills up with Belfast's most stylish crowd, who know that they will be well looked after by the efficient and friendly staff.

The cloth ear is the Merchant hotels bar,so i guess you can imagine, its pretty upmarket. Its joint onto the hotel, and the dormen will be wearing tophats. Its right on the corner of Skipper Street, and its right in the the heart of the Cathedral Quarter - Quality to hang around outside on a summers night and soak up the atmosphere.

Skye opened its doors a few years agao and offered a "pound a drink" night on a Thursday, although this policy is now gone, it still seems to attract a decent crowd. The crowd is young, and the music is cheesy. There is also a strong Hip Hop influence on the club, with belfast African population descending on Skye in strong numbers. If you like baggy t-shirts from TK Maxx, enjoy pop-hop and are looking to pick up young confused teenagers, this is the place for you. Not my cup of tea.

This is a cool bar, popukar for food and after work drinks, with a more stylish, middle class crowd. The drinks menu is impressive and the music thurs-sat is usually decent light house, loud enough to dance to, not too loud that you cant hold a decent converstaion. Its also i a great location, with bars and restaurants in the immediate area. I think its a good bar to start off your night. DDefinitely check it out.

The Potthouse has recently been bought over and i believe things are being sorted out in the restaurant, which has failed to compete, albeit in a very competitive part of the city. the nightclub, the sugar room, upstairs, attracts a young, sexy crowd and theres always plenty of money involved. The girls are nice and snobby, the guys something similar. Its a decent place for a night out but dont expect to have much sunday morning shrapnel.

What a great boozer, a real gem located in the heart of belfasts cathedral quarter, a must see for visitors and a must for locals! A tiny bar with a dart board, great selection of drinks, a fireplace, the walls are covered in music memeorabilia and there is a really good atmosphere around theplace. A wide range of punters, and a great place to sit during the day and read the paper, just as good on a saturday night. The Spaniard is fantastic. it does food as well.

malmaison is a hotel chain that landed on our shores a couple of years agao, and is still very much undisovered by the vast majority of belfast residents. Just round the corner from McHughs, walkingdistance from the cathedral quarter, the hotel bar ooxes class and sophistication, with an impressive spirits menu and cocktail making ability. Its a great place for that sunday afternoon drink or a great pitstop when exploring the city. definitely worth a look. Quality.
