Belfast Guinness Price Index 2026
Guinness prices in Belfast range from £3.00 to £7.80 a pint. We tracked 104 unique venues across the city so you don’t have to guess.
That £4.80 spread isn’t random. Northern Ireland’s licensing laws cap the total number of pubs.. meaning venues grow upward, not outward. You’re not paying for better Guinness.. you’re paying their overhead.
Here’s the thing nobody tells you: expensive doesn’t mean good. Our data shows a negative correlation between price and Google rating. We call it the Heritage Tax.. and you’ve been paying it.
