Get in touch and Dave our owner will talk through all the possibilities available in bringing your event to life.
Our private location off the main drag is also available for exclusive hire up to 80 people, and we have full AV facilities on site. We can offer individually designed, bespoke cocktail menus, and are happy to work with companies, brands, and individuals on unique concepts.

BAR 1661 opened on Good Friday, April 2019, was awarded Ireland’s Best Cocktail bar that same year. Our popular Craft Cocktails brand followed just a year later, and is now stocked nationwide. We’ve been featured at home and all over the world including New York Magazine, Lonely Planet, Forbes, Thrillist, Imbibe and even the BBC. Our passion for Poitín and our dedication to authentic, modern Irish drinks makes for a good story!
Enjoy our house drink at home! Luxurious, earthy and smooth, the Belfast Coffee is a cold brewed Poitín version of the classic Irish coffee.
