Bull & Bear Grill Bangor

You're heading down South Circular Road towards one of Bangor's more reliable dinner spots. The Bull & Bear takes its beef seriously — think aged steaks cooked right, proper sides that aren't an afterthought, and a wine list that actually makes sense rather than showing off. It's the kind of place locals book for anniversaries or when someone's visiting and you want to prove there's good food in Bangor. The room's got enough warmth to feel welcoming but enough polish that you don't feel out of place smartening up a bit.
