A year-long celebration aims to start a new chapter for Belfast, forging better connections and conversations within communities through creativity and culture
I’ll start by saying that this review is suitably thorough. When Pedro Donald reopened The American Bar a little over seven years ago, it took a while for the charm to wash over the good folk of the city and beyond. He opened the doors of the establishment just weeks after this then business correspondent moved into his new office, just a stone’s throw away.
After the shock announcement that Belfast publican Pedro Donald was selling up and moving to Amsterdam, patrons at the popular Sunflower bar have said their goodbyes.
The first response we might be expected to have to the extraordinary interview given by Pedro Donald, owner of the Sunflower Bar, on his decision to leave Northern Ireland for a new life in Amsterdam is to try and talk him down.
