Okay no it doesn't I'm joking of course! To be honest its quite a boring looking place, it's an ordinary looking modern house that is painted a bright colour in an attempt to blend in with all the other traditional village buildings in Glengarriff. Its a grand stop if you are doing a pub crawl of Glengarriff and they have traditional Irish musicians playing in the summer months, that's always good for a hooly. There is also a good outdoor seating area that is perfect for long summer nights with your friends

One great thing is the fact that it has an open fire, I know most people are in Glengarriff during the summer and would not appreciate such a feature which is a pity but let me tell you in the winter time it is very welcome, nothing like a drink beside an open fire around Christmas time is there! You can get food in this bar too if you get a bit hungry. It's a pity there is not more outdoor seating in this pub but sure knowing Irelands weather maybe it isn't a major loss anyway!

My wife and I were in Glengariff for the Free Music Festival in 04/2012...On the night we ventured…read moreout, Bernard Harrington's was hosting the band(s). The music venue, as it turned out, was not in the main part of the pub, but in the slightly claustrophobic "snug". AND IT ROCKED! We were seated next to the band, which made it difficult for conversation, but suited our purpose just the same. Booze and tunes being our priority, it was Mission Accomplished. The Pub is family owned and the staff is phenomenal. As Americans, we were a bit apprehensive about how we would be perceived by the locals in this tiny edge of Ireland. Our fears were completely unjustified, and we found the people to be as welcoming as any you might encounter here in the South. The prices are par for the course of just about any pub we went to, and we didn't try anything off the menu (being more interested in sustenance of the malt and barley variety). The only reason for the four stars is the time/event that brought us to Bernard Harrington's, with a fifth star dependent on our experience outside of the Festival.

This has always been known as Bernard's to me, as far as I can remember it used to be owned by a…read moreman named Bernard, fairly simple reasoning there! These days this seems to be the pub for the young people of Glengarriff village. It has been revamped in the past few years and the decor has totally changed although the layout is exactly the same, i don't think it was done to attract a younger crowd exactly but that's what it seems to have done! Its definitely a pity that they have not done something with the toilets though, they are still the same as they used to be, cold and dated. I am definitely one regard the state of a toilet fairly highly on my list of reasons to like or dislike a place! And i dislike these toilets but there is something about the rest of the pub that overrides this in a way. This is a great pub on a summers night because there is loads of outdoor space to sit around and have a drink or join in on a session.

After a long day of driving we came here for dinner…read more It was quite busy but we were seated within five minutes. Inside was dominated by the bar and sit down tables lined the walls. The crowd was lively that evening. Our server brought over the specials board while we perused the menu which showed a variety of food choices. We ended up getting the haddock special and a seafood soup. The haddock turned out to be a generous portion with creamy mashed potatoes and green beans. It was quite good and nicely priced. The seafood soup was tomato based, rich with lots of seafood inside. Desserts were showcased in a small refrigerated case but nothing stood out to us that night. Service was fast, very friendly and good throughout our meal. If paying by credit card there was an option to add a tip.

After a lovely day of driving the Ring of Kerry, we decided to finish our day with a nice dinner,…read morewe chose this place after reading all the good reviews, and now all my thoughts are how did this place got those good reviews? It was the worst experience ever, I have been in many dinning places and I wouldn't give reviews even it is just ok place, and this one is something else. Ordered food (place was quite quiet at that time), and nothing came for 40 min, asked staff and told just few more minutes, and nothing has came for another 10min, we were all starving by then, and asked staff again and she told us kitchen is busy and we have to wait longer, so we decided to ask for a manager to talk. Few minutes later food came, and both of our burgers were undercooked, raw in the middle, mine I asked for no cheese(lactose intolerant), there they were stick on the burger bun, we couldn't eat ours, my son's pasta was tasteless so he didn't eat his, my parents had their food not because the dishes were nice, only because they were starving. Called staff to complain, asked for manager again, and after 10 minutes no one came and we were completely ignored. Grab a staff to ask for manager again, he just said manager was busy in the kitchen, I think he just try to avoid dealing with us. Honestly, with undercooked food and waste of our time we did not want to pay anything, however, we paid everything apart from the burgers. This place if you want to grab a drink maybe ok, but keep away if you want some food. And if the owner of the pub ever see this, please train your manager on customer service, I have worked in hospitality and there is so much better way could deal with this situation then trying to ignore.

We popped in after dinner and bellied up to the bar only to be passed over multiple times by the bartenders. They clearly saw us, even made eye contact at times, but just kept moving, taking orders of folks who walked up to the bar well after we had sat down. It was the strangest experience of bar service we had experienced in Killarney. Once the bartender actually acknowledged us, she was friendly. We got our drinks and moved to the front room where they had live music. We finished our drinks, enjoyed the music and called it a night after one pint. The space has all the character of an old Irish pub and we had high hopes for Courtney's, but sadly it was the one negative experience on our trip. Overall, disappointed. Enjoyed the pint and the space is cool, but we wouldn't recommend as a "must do" on a trip to Killarney.
