Drinks and Nibbles

Welcome to The Observatory, a destination truly unlike any other. As the Grand Central Hotel’s crowning jewel, it rises above Belfast as Ireland’s tallest bar, where uninterrupted views and artful pours create an extraordinary experience at every turn.

From our extensive wine list, whiskeys from around the world and local beers on draft, every pour served is an invitation to linger, savour and discover.

Expertly crafted cocktails, mixed skilfully by our team of bartenders, reflect a commitment to quality and style. From stylish signatures to faithful classics or simply a nightcap with a view, The Observatory turns every moment into one to remember.

Complementing the occasion is a refined food selection designed for sharing. Enjoy handcrafted sourdough with whipped malted butter, or indulge in artisan cheese and charcuterie boards featuring Lishman’s cured meats and local cheeses like Kearney Blue and Ballylisk Brie, all locally sourced and thoughtfully prepared.

Or for something truly special, our Bollinger Experiences offer a luxurious way to celebrate.
