Irish Pubs For St. Patrick's Day And Beyond

Waxy O'Connor's – Lex P

St Patrick's Day is a day where we all to join together, wear green, and celebrate Irish culture — but why stop at one day a year? We think the Irish heritage, fantastic food, and — of course — Guinness should be celebrated all year long, and this week we're showing off a few of our favourite places to do so. Sláinte!

The Toucan 37 reviews Soho 19 Carlisle Street, London Pubs, Irish Restaurants “This place is as authentic as it gets. Easily the best Guinness I've had in London, and one of the best pints of beer I've had in my life. The pub is very tiny, and is lined with hundreds of Guinness posters and Irish decorations.” Xander H., London

The Porterhouse 129 reviews Covent Garden 21-22 Maiden Lane, London Pubs, Irish Restaurants “Inside the Irish pub is like a rabbit warren — split over three or four floors, there are multiple bars, ante-rooms, nooks and crannies... I always thought it looked somewhat intimidating. Having actually ventured inside though, I would definitely return.” Alex D., London

The Auld Shillelagh 18 reviews Stoke Newington 105 Stoke Newington Church Street, London Pubs, Music Venues “Great little local Irish pub. Not in the O' Neils or Waxy O' Conner sense but more like a pub you'd stumble into in Ireland. It's the staff and clientele that make this place what it is — friendly, laid back, fun, cosy, great live music.” Siobhan K., London

Maddens 9 reviews East Finchley 130 High Rd, London Pubs “Lovely sense of welcoming. The decor shows its an Irish bar but it doesn't go down the tacky route which is always better... The clientele is a little older but the atmosphere is energetic and buzzing so no worries about it being 'an old man pub'.” Jamie C., London

Sheephaven Bay 8 reviews Euston 2-3 Mornington Street, London Pubs, Irish Restaurants “Great for watching Ireland play rugby. Atmosphere is great. Saw Ireland win 6 nations here... Guinness is good. Not a fake Irish boozer.” Billy Q., London
