So I'm a deep west cork native (beara) but I used to call into this bar to play pool anytime I was in the city seeing friends after I dropped out of college in 2012 . Always welcomed , even given free pool 1 day when I changed a 10er for 1 euro coins to play on my own to practice. Roll on the years it's been my local for about the last 6 or 7 years as I've lived in the city . Maybe a little biased but seriously , the best bar I've ever come across , the locals , now friends , are welcoming to newcomers , it's a city pub so the banter and messing is great , I play darts to a decent level so I joined the team and am still there , now I play for the pool team also . The atmosphere is friendly and inviting , if your looking for sports , this is the place , so many screens , different games on each depending on what people want . 2 pool tables , 8 darts boards , poker nights on Thursday , never any trouble either . If you want to sit in peace at a table and have your own space no problem either . And lastly the staff , absolute gems , couldn't be more welcoming and friendly , they quickly become friends . It's like walking into your sitting room with a fire on , you can engage or chill and enjoy . Hands down my favourite bar in the city ❤️ they accommodate music , events , supporters clubs , music every Sunday night . No 1 in cork 💯👌🏼
