Viral food reviewer raves about Belfast bar's "gorgeous" pints of Guinness to 500k followers

A viral TikTok star who claims to be the "UK's Number One Food Reviewer" has recommended a Belfast bar to his 500k followers on a food trip north and south of the border.

Matt Davies-Binge, who is known as Food Review Club on social media, stopped in at Bittles Bar in the city centre on the hunt for a perfect pint of Guinness.

The food content creator has over five million likes on his TikTok account and has racked up a massive following both on the video-sharing app, Instagram and Youtube.

On his four-and-a-half-minute social video, Matt said it "wouldn't be much of a trip" if he didn't try his hand at a Guinness review and settled on Bittles Bar for the task, calling it one of "the most iconic buildings and pubs in Belfast".

The video, which already has almost 130k views and over 7k likes on TikTok, sees Food Review Club ordering a pint of the black stuff calling it his 'Belfast Lunch' and giving it a taste test outside the pub.

Showing off the pint, Matt said: "That has got a cracking dome on top of that and we had a few of these last night so that was like the warm up."

After a few big gulps, he described it as "fantastic", "smooth" and "consistent".

"That is fantastic - absolutely gorgeous. Really, in a weird way to my palette, actually refreshing as well. That's a proper Belfast lunch," he added.

On his trip to Belfast, Food Review Club also stopped in at Flout! Pizza in East Belfast to take a bite out of their iconic slices.
