Pierce Brosnan has enjoyed a lunch at a popular Belfast city centre restaurant.

The fifth James Bond was pictured at Deane's Love Fish on Saturday afternoon. Taking to social media, restaurant owner, Michael Deane, was excited to have the 69-year-old actor, originally from Co Meath, stop by to try the food.

Late last month, 007 swapped Hollywood for Holywood, when he visited restaurant Fontana in the Co Down town.

In a post on social media, the restaurant said: "It’s not everyday James Bond pops in for lunch".

Adam Stockman from Fontana told Belfast Live: "We knew he was going to be calling in, he's in the area for five or six weeks filming. So I think he was looking to check out eateries in the area.

"He's literally just landed in NI, the first time he's ever been in the country, which I was surprised about myself. He came in for lunch along with his personal assistant and he had a lovely couple of hours with us.

"He was friendly and chatting to customers and staff and he went across to chat with some ladies at table, had the craic with them and had a few photographs taken.

"So he was up for a bit of chat and he wasn't sitting back not wanting to talk to people.

"He was extremely down to earth and he's certainly not lost any of that Irish charm."
