BLACK BUSH TRADITIONAL IRISH BAR.

4.8
★★★★★
50 reviews on Google

Uniquely housed in the impressive brick-arched undercroft of Gamul House, this stripped-back, gimmick-free Irish pub features rustic decor crafted from sanded scaffolding planks. A quick, gentle correction for your notes: the bar actually prides itself on having no background or live music! It was specifically designed to be a relaxed environment perfect for civilized conversation. It is dog-friendly, filled with chatty locals, and is widely praised for serving the best pint of Guinness in the city.

“What a little gem of a place. The atmosphere is lovely and the service was spot on. It was quite busy when we went in and although it is a relatively small establishment it didn't feel over crowded. There is a nice selection of beers on offer and the Guinness was good. It is easy…”
