  • The Irish Pub is a eulogy to the greatest institution in Irish society, the pub or more specifically the traditional Irish publicans who run them. The characters in this exceptionally endearing film all run and own pubs that have been in their families for generations and it is through their warmth, wit and wisdom that we gain an insight into the heart and soul of The Irish Pub.

    Reviews:
    "It’s like a safety valve for the population of Ireland," Keane says. "We probably have less psychologists than any other country in the world. But there’s probably no country in the world who needs them more." - The Washington Post
    "The Irish Pub" plays like a portfolio of lovely postcards, with splendidly photographed pictures of quaint buildings, cobbled streets, breathtaking landscapes, and smiling faces as hollowed and worn as the centuries-old stone floors of the title taverns. - The Boston Globe

    I turned 60 years old this year,I’ve been back in England nearly five years after twenty years in Ireland and I feel alienated in my own country. I’m so homesick and this film has made up my mind,I’m going back home to my lovely friends in Ireland.

      My wife and I visited Ireland in 2015 and miss it terribly. My wife's heritage is from Kildare and Waterford, looked into retiring there as soon as we got back and found out the law for retiring from the US changed in early 2015, too bad for us. We agreed we'd both move there in an instant. We never met such friendly people ever, absolutely beautiful.

      Pensioners around the world have suffered tremendously by the isolation of Covid. For many, it is like solitary confinement. I don't know about Ireland, but Japan is one of the very worst. There is no place for seniors to interact with anybody. They have to stay alone in their tiny apartments and watch the same old stuff being repeated over and over and over on television. It is a wonder that most of them haven't just given up.

My mother would be brought a glass of port and I would have a cup of hot tea with my sandwich. Such happy memories.

    I finally got to Ireland in Autumn 2019 after a lifetime of planning on it. I went by myself, rented a car, and drove around the entire coastline and much of the interior for over a month, which was a perfect amount of time. I was in pubs every day I wasn’t hungover from a couple of runaway nights in pubs from which I needed to recover, a couple of which are in this doc. I just couldn’t believe the people. Being Irish American, and loving to talk and meet people, I was of course welcomed everywhere (“Oh you’re an O’Shea?! You’re the spitting image of my cousin Jimmy O’Shea himself down the road. You should go see him. Let me buy you a pint.” Happened all the time.) I just came into some money and have nothing else going these days, and I’d go back tomorrow if anyone could. But even beyond COVID, the political situation is catastrophic, and I could see that when I was there.

    What can I say about the Irish pub? Heaven on earth! When I was a student in Ireland, from the late 70s to the mid-80s, my favourite pubs were:
    Galway
    • The Cellar - downstairs was students from RTC Galway, upstairs was the UCG crowd
    • The Hole-In-The-Wall - quiet Saturday afternoons
    • The Skeff - first round
    • The Quays - watched the banned film, Life of Brian
    • The Bunch of Grapes - compulsory stop on the crawl
    • The Kings Head - Irish music.
    In Cork:
    • UCC Student Bar - my first experience of watching MTV
    • Starries - The Western Star - riotous student pub
    • The Long Valley - great for long afternoons, reading a novel
    • The Abbey Tavern - quiet and close to the Chinese takeaway I once lived above
    • Bodega - full of sailors and hookers. Bodega on Saturday night & Confession the next day
    Then, there are a whole lot of other pubs whose name I can’t remember, but their pints were cheap and the craic was mighty.

    Not a drop of Irish blood in me. Yet when I visited Ireland for the first time with my family in 2018, my time in pubs chatting with the locals made me feel the pride the Irish have in being Irish, and the absolute joy which can only come over a pint and a story. Cannot wait to go back to Ireland to have a pint with friends I haven't met yet. This film is an excellent reminder of that feeling.

    More than a few bars in the American Old West began their lives in Ireland and were shipped across ocean and rugged land to their destinations. The bar in one of the favorite saloons of my younger days shipped from Dublin and arrived to the US territory in 1881. Amazing bar. Even drinking plain whiskey, the presence of the bar made it seem prestigious.

      @WildWoodsGirl65 Месяц назад

      To anyone who speaks no Irish (Gaeilge), a seisiún (Irish for session) is when people just start singing & playing music. When it's a planned thing, a more formal (in timing) gathering for music & dancing, it's called a céilí (céilidhe in the old spelling) pronounced like kay-lee. There are many places where a sesh is quite common or frequent, even regularly. But a céilí is like, a party, a special occasion though the word is also used to mean the traditional music. Scotland does both too, sessions & - they spell it cèilidh in the Gaelic - those as well.
      Many in the states don't know bc it was heard not written, & sounds similar, but Irish language is properly called Gaeilge not Gaelic though Irish people usually just call it Irish, & Gaelic really is the name of the Scottish language. And of course they're closely related. Gaeilge has a hard G at the end there & the e is pronounced, just a little: gale-geh. But said quickly... Immigrants who had lost their language - & of course it was illegal for years in Ireland & had to be reclaimed, many places - well people didn't realize for awhile bc they didn't know the spelling & Scots-Irish is a thing. Lessons in both languages are in videos online, & dictionaries & grammars.

    I'm a proud Irish man and I've travelled a fair bit, including once to New York and Florida on two occasions. No matter where I go I find that Irish bars are more often far more expensive than other local bars and I have come across Irish bars run by people with no connection to Ireland. My wife and I went into The Dubliner bar in Madrid a few years back and six beers in a bucket of ice was 15 Euros. We left and went to a local Spanish bar in a square just a few hundred yards away, where the same 6 beers in a bucket of ice was a shocking 10 Euros cheaper. We spent the rest of our time sitting out in the sunshine watching the people and drinking our ice cold beer, savouring the fact that we weren't being ripped off because we were silly Irish people who travelled to another country to sit in an Irish bar made to look like the ones we have at home in Ireland.
    There's nothing much better than enjoying a pint in a real Irish bar in Ireland owned by real Irish people and not the likes of Wetherspoons but when I travel I avoid the fake rip-off Irish bars...

    Where I grew up (this is back in the 80s), women, girls, along with boys under 10 or so went to the lounge of the local pub. You'd be upstairs with your mother, basically, neighbours etc. Then at some point you'd be downstairs in the bar with your father and going up into the lounge was no longer allowed.
    There was a hatch just outside the bar room where women bought drink if needed, though a woman buying her own drink was frowned upon. If a woman entered the bar it was considered a major scandal. It was initially a shock to me when I was able to go to pubs on my own in the city and saw women standing at the bar, drinking pints, with men.
    It seems like a million years ago and Ireland has changed a lot since then, and for the better.

    A superb wee documentary shared.
    As I age, I realise that my ancestral homeland, Ireland, is exactly where I want & need to be.
    The genuine warmth & very welcoming nature of the Irish people & the beauty of nature abound, is what makes Ireland so very special.
    Many of my Irish ancestors hailed from Co Clare, Co Limerick & Northern Ireland & the other side of my family, from Co Roscommon, Co Galway, Connemara & other nearby regions, so I yearn to see these regions again & I look forward to entering a traditional pub, ordering a nice & creamy Guinness, then striking up a chat with the wonderful locals (of which there are still many abound!).
    Ironically, I just returned from Ireland & this happened to me time & time again & not just within the pubs. People are most happy to have a wee chat almost anywhere, especially within any type of eating establishment.
    I've watched this documentary many times over, as it's that enjoyable, however, it's quire bittersweet, when you see all the historical stories about the pubs & you see the many locals who used to frequent the pubs, but are now sadly forever gone.
    It's even more sad, when only 1 or 2 of the older generation are still alive & you see them visiting these lovely pubs, but are often seated alone, without their old friends from the past seated nearby.
    The best news however, is that they will "never ever" be lonely even then, as there'll always be a number of new friends to socialise with upon each ensuing pub visit.
    Such is the beautiful & special nature of the Irish.
    Ireland, the most wonderful Irish people & the precious, traditional Irish pubs still remaining, forever holding a special place within my heart & soul.
