Pub Crawl: The Top Pubs in Ireland

Tynan’s Bridge House – Kilkenny

Not a whole lot has changed in Tynan’s Bridge House Bar since it opened in 1703. Outside, the bar is painted a bright blue and covered in flowers during the warmest months of the year. Inside, the light fixtures are all brass, which complements the dark wood of the elaborately carved bar.

The bar is full of little antique accents, like a set of hanging scales, and old pantry drawers which contrast beautifully with the deep red upholstery of the booths. This is the perfect place to go if you’re looking for a quiet night, unless one of the local sports teams happen to be celebrating – this is a popular bar for the local hurling club.
