ARMYSAINTEE Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 Been living and working in belfast for 2 years now. Live 5 minutes from the oval in holywood.Lots of good pubs etc.... overe here no problems with saftey or security .Locals are very friendly however there is some parts of the city that make govan look like a 5 star resort !Not to many pubs around the oval , drink in the city centre then taxi or walk to the ground.Its a short hop in a taxi from the airport as well .Few suggestions :Robinsons bar (opposite the europa hotel) has live music and good craicCathedral quarter - lots of bars main ones being the harp bar , the duke of york, both very lively Kitchen bar - right outside victoria square shopping centre does an excellent bar lunch.As its marching season there will more than likely be a few band parades about the place so just be aware of that ... and as the oval is in a loyalist area there shouldnt be to many problems.Typically im away on holiday for this match If anyone needs any info on places to go things to see etc... give me a shout on here COYS KingBoobwar, Highland Saintee, mike_gain and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
