My favorite place in Rome. 5 visits in 8 days! The beer is great, they have plenty of options for you to get creative and taste new flavors or go classic. The music is fantastic, the staff is always smiling and kind. I cannot think of a better place to end a long day of walking.

If you need a break from pasta and pizza, this is the spot. Stepping off the streets of Rome into this pub is stepping onto the streets of Ireland. With the Irish music flavoring the tavern decor and the Irish fare, one is transported directly to the Emerald Isle without ever leaving Rome.

The restaurant is huge with seating inside and outside, upstairs and downstairs, at the bar or at a booth or table. The vastness of the restaurant is only rivaled by the extensive menu with great Irish cuisines.

We’ve been here twice since being in Rome and both times have been exceptional. The service is topnotch and the food is scrumptious. We’ve ordered the cheeseburger, the fish and chips (the second time they had ran out - insert sad face), the pulled pork sandwich, and the Guinness stew. All items were delicious.

The fish and chips tartar sauce is great and that’s coming from a not-a-tartar-sauce fan. Also, the Guinness stew is filling with chunks of tender meat and diced carrots. Before ordering, know that the sandwiches do not come with fries, those have to be ordered separately. Don’t fret though, they are generous with their basket-o-fries. The only issue I had with any of the food was that sometimes they run out, like with the fish and chips.

Additionally, if you’re here and want to partake in some fun, the pub offers karaoke nights, trivia/game nights, and, yes, traditional Irish music nights.

Overall, this is quickly becoming a go-to favorite pub of mine while in Rome. The beer is delicious and the food is perfectly flavored and rightly proportioned.

Enjoy!
