We had a yummy dinner at The Latern - Cod baked in fabulous sauce w sweet potatoes for me and Edel had beef roast, so tender! We split a sour apple tart for dessert.
THE CROWN PUB was first pointed out on our walking tour, and it was so interesting we went back for drinks after Dinner.
The owners are a mixed religion couple - the husband is Catholic and wife Protestant, and she adores everything about the royals. They compromised on the name the crown, but in smallest letters in Marquee outside and image of crown has to be walked on upon entry to the pub. The finishes inside and out are very detailed and unique. There are snugs lining the opposite side of the bar from 1880 built by Italian craftsmen working in the shipyards and on churches around Belfast they were designed to allow ladies and high society to have a drink without being overlooked.
