The Clover Group: The Clover Group was founded in 2017 with a philosophy to regenerate and restore some of Belfast’s most well-loved and historic establishments, breathing new life into old spaces. Our goal is to provide experiences to remember and create guests for life through exceptional service in warm, ambient, breath-taking environments to create unforgettable customer experiences
Our journey began with McCracken’s bar, on the historic Joys Entry, which we lovingly restored and relaunched as the award-winning Henrys & The Jailhouse. Continuing in this tradition we have went on to bring a new lease of life to many historic pubs and grow the group through Pug Uglys, Margot, Fountain Lane, Whites Tavern, The Bone Yard, and most recently Whites Garden
From gastro pubs steeped in history and bursting with culture and traditional music, to elegant cocktail bars or niche outdoor spaces the Clover Group prides itself on bringing Belfast unique offerings that are carefully curated from conception to creation. The Clover Group aims to be a leader in providing the world-renowned warmth of Irish hospitality through distinctive and relative venues, to build relationships, community, and be award winning in everything we do.
With plans to continually expand, we look froward to bringing more restorations, concepts & experiences to the Northern Irish hospitality scene & it's guests.
