The first floor is where they do the music and it's pretty small, so if you come for the music I would come early to snag a seat. The beer is also very good. I tried the Beamish which is a famous beer in Cork and it was not bad.

Good spot for one or two Guinness but I wouldn't plan on much more, it's just too busy. Must see joint in Cork City/ talk later?

There are a lot of pubs in cork but if you must visit any it should be Gallangers. I love the setup…read morehere the bar is huge and the rocking bit we chose to sit at a table. We were immediately greeted and placed drink orders. I had the espresso martini. This was not your typical espresso martini it was so good and very very strong. For dinner I ordered the Guinness pie and my Friend got the seafood pie. Both were delicious but the Guinness pie was exceptional. I love to share food but did not want to share this. I wanted to savor every bite. O ate the entire pie and its was huge but so good. Couldn't pass up sticky toffee pudding and my goodness am o glad I somehow managed to find the room. One of the best desserts I've ever had so good I could've shed a tear. Can't wait to visit again.

Had another visit today 23/02/2026 for dinner, ordered two appetizers and one dessert…read more The chicken liver pate was nice, rich and creamy liver flavor went well with the crispy fry bread and sour pickles. Small pork pie's pastry had some slightly overburnt and had spots, but it was crispy overall. The filling was seasoned nicely, but could use a bit more gravy or juice. The blackberry sundae with ice cream was nicely done, silky texture ice cream, sundae was rich in blackberry flavor. Other elements provide a diversity of mouthfeel, but I felt some of them were a bit of nuisance as their textures sometimes did not feel harmonized together.

Sorry, love nice bathrooms so you might start seeing that a lot in reviews…read more All the staff and regulars here are pretty great, and quick service at the bar although it's popular so can be hard to squeeze in.
