Originally built opposite the old Great Northern Railway station in Great Victoria Street, Belfast, Robinson's Bar was a first port of call for many visitors by train. Whilst the station and its trade has since moved and the original bar (as depicted by McDonnell) destroyed in 1993 by a terrorist bomb, Robinson's remains today one of the best-known pubs in Belfast.
