The Plough, a former CAMRA Northern Ireland Pub of the Year, used to sell Whitewater ales, usually Belfast Ale, but others Whitewater beers do appear. The interior has a central bar surrounded by drinking areas on different levels. The walls are decorated with wood paneling and a variety of memorabilia. Can be very busy. The bar can be congested when a big game is on. Friendly and helpful staff add to a welcoming atmosphere.
