Trading since 1867 The Botanic Inn , which is more affectionately known as ‘The Bot’, is the flagship outlet for the award winning Botanic Inns Pub Company. The Bot is a Belfast institution and has long held the position as the city’s number one destination for anyone seeking great food, quality drinks, a lively night out and big screen sport.

The Bot consists of three different bars. The traditional front bar is a cosy corner where locals and visitors enjoy each other’s company in quiet in comfortable, surroundings. The main bar is a hive of activity from noon when the lunch crowd take advantage of the high quality, great value food, until night when the crowds gather to enjoy the nightly entertainment. Upstairs, The Top of the Bot is one of Belfast’s longest running and most loved nightclubs, which is open Wednesday through Saturday.

With a steady stream of locals, students and visitors to Belfast, 'The Bot' is not only the biggest bar in Northern Ireland, but also the busiest.
