Fantastic place for traditional Irish music. Less packed the the other big names, and more of a community vibe... people were just joining the band and singing a ballad. Fantastic.

A real traditional Irish bar, old school with the lads playing music in the corner, the local sitting close by with his dog on the sofa, and just grubby enough without being dirty

He live music was wonderful and the staff was friendly. Mostly locals in this bar because it's a bit further outside of downtown Galway.

I was here two times, on the first one there were 6 people, playing upstairs. Second one - group of 8 young people on the 1st floor. Both were excellent! Not so many tourists. And Guinness!

Best trad sessions in the world! My wife and I had our first date here... in 1998! Still going strong.
