A traditional pub in High Street, opposite the Left Bank, with a strong sporting theme. On a freezing March evening and after a great meal in Zuni’s, we were looking for somewhere with a bit of atmosphere and a drop of the hard stuff to help the food go down. The pub was very quiet, but the three of us... More

An average example of a local watering hole. This bar has had many owners in the past few years with varying degrees of success. Can be very busy at the weekend nights because of its location.

Mediocre food, cold beer, charming waitress. Pints cost almost 5 euros. Across and down the street from Kilkenny Castle. Lots of locals stop by for a not-so-quick pint. We went during the day, might be a lot livelier at night. Just Okay!
