I came here on Mon night for guiness as was missing London. It was quiet but I really liked the ambiance and atmosphere. Prices are fair, transparent and reasonable as on menus - no tourist or service charge. Also lots of facilities for groups including darts, pool table. Also lovely rooftop vibes.

We came here because of the positive reviews, but we were disappointed. The staff was rude to us and I have never experienced anything like it. We came in, tried to sit down but the girl working there insisted that we sat somewhere else, far away from people. We instead went an sat nearer the other people in the pub and near the  live music. Then, after sitting down and taking off our jackets we went to the bar to order beers, but then the girl ran to us and yelled at us(!) telling us we had no business ordering beers ourselves and that she would take the orders at the table. The guy serving beers seemed as surprised as us, but we did as we were instructed, super confused by the treatment. Underneath my Norwegian good manners I was fuming by the bad treatment.
By the way, there are mostly just danish beers here and Guinness and Kilkenny is the only Irish beer they serve.  I had to go to the toilet before we left (after the one overpriced(!) beer) and it had a heavy stench of urine. I am not a sensitive guy to this, but this was extreme.

Pros: nice enough interior, ok beer, live music when we were there (though only practicing)

Cons: Rude staff (just the girl though), overpriced beer, disguuuusting bathroom.

We didn't eat there.

Good Guinness and atmosphere,  friendly service.  We were told the cook was away and the bartender was cooking,  thought this was worth a try, so we ordered. Unfortunately, it wasn't good fish and chips and shepherd's pie.  However,  it's a lively place.  Tonight, there was a dance club with couples having a fun time on the floor,  lovely to watch.  Did I mention the Guinness? It's good.  Come for a drink, and hopefully, the cook will return!

Fantastic atmosphere, definitely unlike other so-called Irish pubs in town. Wasn't too crowded on a Saturday night. Tap beers are great, would even visit again just for full pint Kilkenny's- which I failed to find in most pubs around. Prices are decent and they serve Bavaria(1 Liter) fills too! Mind that the place is a non smoking area so you need to walk in and out in order to have a smoke
