Northern Whig, Bar and restaurant in Cathedral Quarter, Belfast, Northern Ireland
The Northern Whig occupies a substantial neoclassical building with grand architectural features and prominent stone columns at the entrance of Cathedral Quarter.
The building, erected in 1819, served as a hotel and gentleman's club before becoming the headquarters of the Northern Whig newspaper from 1922 to 1963.
Soviet-era statues from the Prague Communist Party headquarters decorate the interior, connecting the space to European political history.
The establishment opens from noon until 1:00 AM Wednesday through Friday, with extended hours until 1:30 AM on Saturdays.
During World War II in 1941, the building endured damage from the Belfast Blitz before its transformation into a commercial printing operation.
