Drinking Laws up north over easter.

[Punter08]

Unfortunately the North of Ireland/Northern Ireland still has stupid drinking laws over Easter, so the hotels, bars, clubs and restaurants will lose out millions over the holidays because the 2 main churches don't want you drinking.

If you are a Escort or Punter up North visiting, here is a link about this. If you like a drink make sure to get some in before the times listed below.

Have a nice Easter

Northern Ireland Easter and Christmas licensing hours 2019
Over Christmas and Easter, the times during which alcohol may be sold on licensed premises in Northern Ireland is slightly different to the rest of the year.

Licensed premises include businesses such as bars, restaurants, hotels and theatres who hold a licence to sell alcohol or ‘liquor licence’. Some licensed premises have a ‘late licence’ that normally allows them to sell alcohol as late as 01:00, instead of the usual limit of 23:00.
