The Morning Star

In the heart of Belfast, nestled in the historic Pottinger’s Entry lies The Morning Star—a beacon of tradition, resilience, and community .

As a family-owned establishment, The Morning Star stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of the McAlister family, a family with deep roots in both farming hospitality, spanning five generations. The Pub is a beautiful representation of Victorian architecture, with original mahogany horse shoe bar, terrazzo floor, leather booth seating and wrought iron signage. What makes us unique as a “Belfast Pub” is our award winning restaurant, which uses beef, lamb and vegetables from our own farm; so when we say farm to fork, we really do mean it! Our steaks are famous and so too is our Oysters & Guinness, so come sit back and relax in one of the Belfast most storied and finest establishments.
