Old fashioned traditional Irish music pub dating back to 1895, rich in tradition and culture with a lovely atmosphere. Music every Friday and Saturday during the winter and every Wednesday Friday Saturday and Sunday during the summer, Famous for its trad sessions with some of Ireland finest having played here.

O'Sullivan's Courthouse Pub

Reviewed By gojojan - Coventry, United Kingdom

We spent a couple of nights in here, listening to rich, fabulous Irish music with a variety of instruments including banjo, the pipes along with Guitar and violin. Friendly - a traditional Irish pub selling good beer and one that hasn’t sold out to the wave of tourists, but one that shouldn’t be missed.

Ceili by the Lee

Ceili by the Lee is a traditional Irish social gathering. It's hard to be all things to all people, but we try our best: whether you want to learn to dance in the old Irish style, get fit, make new friends, or simply have the craic we have you covered! Combining the hectic energy of a party in an ocean liner steerage with the nostalgia of a Gaeltacht days fado, this is an activity that won't disappoint! Come along from 8, and the MC will show how they used to do in old Ireland. Neither aptitude nor experience is required, as the Messrs O'Toole are renowned for turning two left feet into a matching pair. Mondays at 19:30 in Crane Lane on Phoenix Street Admission €5 Check FB for more info!

A great experience the few times I went! Each week starts with the basic steps, which is great for people like me that need a lot of practice. But it's never boring because of the enthusiasm of the instructor and the different dances every week.

Costigan's Pub

"Serving the people of cork since 1849" Costigan's Traditional Irish pub is without doubt one of Cork's oldest and finest pubs, nestled in the heart of Washington Street, Cork City. What began as a Fish Mongers, then became a coach house and years later a sweet shop, it blossomed into the charming pub that it is today. Through the centuries it has retained its Irish character. It is an old style public house with its long bar counter, snug and parlour area; not to mention the open fire and heated beer garden. With an extensive local whiskey and gin selection from Cork and the rest of Ireland, Costigan's Traditional Irish Pub is the perfect setting to enjoy a drink or two. Costigan's stunning individual architecture provides the ideal atmosphere to enjoy one of Ireland's most traditional pubs. Céad Míle Fáilte!

Have visted a few times on random occasions, always get a good pint of Guinness. Non-pretentious & friendly attitude from those behind the bar. Would recommend for a drink on quiet or busy nights. There's a lovely sitting area down the back for a small group, & the smoking area while small, is accessible from both sides.

This was absolutely the most fun I have ever had in a pub in my life! the family environment with Joan and Pat was like taking a little piece of Ireland home with me in my memories. Joan is such a wonderful woman she looked out for us like a mama bear and provided safety that we needed as 3 women traveling alone getting home. We can’t wait to come back and visit again. You MUST go visit Cooley’s ????????????????????????

Watched Irish football in the pub. Very exciting. The people are great and friendly, especially Dara. He is is the consummate Irishman, just a lovely person. Went back a second time for music and drinks. If you want the ultimate Irish experience, this is the place.

Reviewed By 66gayler - Rhondda, United Kingdom

We went for a large group event which utilised the large back room and later a smaller bar that showed a screening of a short film. The spaces were all different but the staff were consistently friendly & helpful. The front bar area had a buzz to it and wasn't too rowdy for a Friday night. It's a little bit of a walk back to the main shopping area - so you may prefer a short taxi ride to walking in the autumn/winter.

We were in tonight and Niall served us. He was so lovely and helped us any time needed. Couldn’t have asked for a nicer server. Always checking to make sure if we needed anything and ensuring everything was okay with us, so impressed with him! Such a lovely fella would recommend to anyone
