We arrived during an ongoing World Cup match, and the venue was busy. Despite the overall crowd, the staff and patrons were friendly and accommodating, allowing us to move freely to watch the game. At one point, the television unexpectedly experienced a brief blackout lasting only a few seconds, which elicited a strong reaction from the crowd. read more

One star, and only because zero isn't an option. Walked in at 12:30 on a weekday with two friends. All we wanted was a table and a cold drink. We sat down and the host came over immediately to tell us to get up, because every table was reserved. Meanwhile I counted at least eight of them sitting empty. We ended up standing in a tight little area next to the restrooms. The beer was no better. The taps clearly aren't maintained. It took three glasses of foam before anything resembling an actual pour came out, and what we finally got was flat. The service somehow got worse from there. The host and the bartenders gave their full attention to the two occupied tables and completely ignored everyone standing with a drink in hand. Not a check in, not a "can I get you anything else," nothing. We were there twenty minutes and not one of those reserved tables ever filled up. Here's the part that should bother the owner: we would have ordered another round. So would the group of four who got the same speech about not sitting down and left instead. That's two tables of revenue out the door in under half an hour, in an empty bar, to protect reservations that never showed. If the plan is table service and a reservation book, fine, but then don't call yourself a pub. People come to a pub to sit down and drink a beer that isn't flat. read more

We had the most fun here out of our whole trip and it wasn't even on the itinerary! We wanted to sit and have an espresso martini. We looked and found this tucked away pub! It was the best espresso martini we've ever had, I'm still dreaming about it now!! Such a fun place, it's welcoming for meeting people and watch football or American football, would have loved to watch a game here!! Everyone was having a great time watching soccer on the tvs! I will visit here every time I'm in Venice!! read more

Just had drinks here. Bartenders were sarcastically friendly and we loved it. I need 85 characters to finish this review read more

Great place to come when you want a good burger! It has super friendly staff and a fun vibe, and it is just an all-around good place to hang out and eat some delicious food. I wondered if I would go after reading some negative reviews about the beef, but I'm really glad I did. I don't know what that was all about, but again, the burger was great. I'm from LA, so we know good burgers! read more

A surprise indeed! Have you been italy for a while? Do you crave a burger and a pint? Come to this large pub on a small street and get a taste of home. The bartenders are great. Irish style setup. Food is fantastic and the beer is cold. Take a timeout and stop in! read more

After a day of walking through the corn maze alleys in Venice, we stopped in this pub and my husband was in heaven! It's welcoming inside and the bartenders are friendly. They have a few tables in front and back and bar seating. We met some nice people from Canada and it was nice to sit and rest while having good conversation. read more

I stumbled upon this place by accident, and after a day trudging though the alleys of Venice, this pub was a Godsend. Seriously, considering that Venice only something like two pubs in the city, the Devil Forest Pub is nothing short of an oasis beer and cheer. The owner will be quick to point out that it is an Italian bar and not a British bar. Well, that's ok with me, because if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then it's a British pub. I mean it checked off all the boxes in my pub wishlist: proper bar and bar stool (check), sports on the TV (check), unpretentious clientele (check), pub grub (check), and a relaxing good time (check, check) So if you're looking for a little slice of pub heaven this is rally the only game in Venice. Be sure to leave your carnival mask at home, for this place for those who like a proper pub and a proper pint. read more

The friendly staff make some great quality drinks... one of the best espresso martinis I have had!

Drinks and prices aren't bad, but they've played, I kid you not, 20 Hollywood Undead songs and it feels like I'm literally in hell.

The closest thing to a British pub in Venice. Football on the telly and Guinness on draft. Pub-style seating, which isn't really a plus but there you have it. The bartender was courteous, quick, and poured a proper pint. Free WiFi, but you need to get a staff member to talk you through it. read more

Food was different than back in the day Us but it really good. Service was fast and was great pub in Venice.

Great little pub in Venice. Friendly staff, nice beer selection and tasty fries. The atmosphere is quaint and cozy. read more

This is my favorite spot in the world for a good ol pint of Guinness. They treat you right! You will not leave thirsty!

Bartender manhandled my daughter because she didn't buy a drink before using the bathroom. We had sat down, the girls were going to use the bathroom, then we were going to order drinks. The bartender grabbed my daughters shoulder, yanked her back & yelled she had to buy drinks first. It was a short stay read more

We just got to Venice and as I'm assuming most people on their first visit, you're wandering around staring at the map app trying to find you're hotel. On the way there we pass this place and have since used it as a landmark to find out hotel. We checked in, walked out, walked into this pub and found it to be awesome, warm and fun! Cheers! A must come! Bartender was super cool! read more

The Devil Lives Here... I'm only going to give this place one star just to get the review posted... we were looking for a place to have a drink and a pint. We sat down with-the intent Of ordering some food as well. Not knowing the protocol... one of our comrades asked if we could get someone to take our order....this guy working there copped an attitude and started going off on us and told us that if we didn't like the service we could leave. We tried to tell him that we understood but he still kept going off on us! Given his horrible disposition and behavior we opted to leave... this guy became so indignant with us that I would not have put it past him to have spit in our food. We left and never looked back! There are so many better people and places to enjoy! read more

Love it!!! This place is the best! Eduardo was at the bar and was AMAZING!! Loved my Sex on the Beach drinks and I have to say ... the BEST FRENCH FRIES I've ever had in the world!!! Make sure to order!! Highly recommend this place if you're in Venice ... ask for Eduardo! read more

Looking for a great place to have a few drinks within walking distance of the Air bnb and wasn't disapointed by this place. Was able to score a small table for two and enjoyed a few beers and jack n cokes along with some people watching it was a good time. Agree with other reviews this place seems like a locals place a lil bit and I must say that this confirms t the theory of the best places to visit is where the locals go! IF we were to return to the immediate area this would warrant another stop in. read more

We had a hard time finding a pub or bar to check out while we were in Venice. Glad we came across this place. It was support chilled and low key. Our bartender was friendly. The red wine I had was pretty delicious. It's a good spot to have drinks while you are in Venice! read more

I found Devil Forest Pub on Yelp, and decided to stop by with my friend for drinks and a bite. When we got there we were told there'd be a 10 minute wait for a table; that sounded reasonable so we ordered some drinks and waited to be seated. 20 minutes later we were still waiting... A couple of other parties arrived after we did, and were seated while we continued to wait. At first we just thought it was because there were still tables waiting to be cleared, but as the wait got to be North of half an hour, we concluded that we had been completely forgotten. We finished our drinks, which were just OK and on the high end of the price range you'd expect to pay in a place like this. Still having no luck getting noticed, we left and found another place to eat and have some more drinks. Tip: This place looks like a typical British pub; very similar to hundreds of others I've seen elsewhere in the Europe; nothing memorable. Given the sub-par service experience, the prices and the lack of anything memorable about the ambiance, I don't see myself coming back here. read more

Good but not great beer selection, nice people, speak English, clean bathrooms. Needs more Belgian beers. read more

A pretty good representation of an English pub. The air conditioning vent is near the back of the bar, we stood there because the place was still a little too warm for our liking on a July night. I had a few glasses of Prosecco while we watched the football game, the Euro-cup? Unfortunately for us it was standing room only. They do have free wifi here. They also have a mini keg system behind glass door with IPA's on tap; this is kind of rare in Venice. Mostly you can get what I call "water-beer" at bars and cafe's in Venice. read more

Great place to change things up a bit in italy! Coming from California, we're have plenty of these pubs around, but it felt like we were at home for a bit. Good music, really friendly staff, and good food. What else could you ask for? It's a couple bucks more than normal, but nothing outrageous. Decent beer selection. I got the Marilyn Sandwich.....good stuff! read more

Staff was very helpful and allowed us in at 1457. 3 minutes before closing restaurant services. They provided good service and good food. The only down side is that this is a cash only place. No credit cards will be accepted. They also have a live webcam on their website so mom can watch you from where ever. This more of a pub than a dining establishments. However, anything you decide to have you will be in a place with great atmosphere and tourists friendly. read more

Considering Venice doesn't really have more than like 2 or 3 traditional bars/pubs! Too bad that it closes early like all of Venice normally does. I mean Venice isn't necessarily a destination for partying, but it was nice to get some beers and drinks from a city that typically has "bars" which consist of a bakery with alcohol. read more

Went here as one of the only (if not the only) place in Venice to watch NFL. They play red zone on 2 of the 3 TVs and have a good beer selection. Definitely more of a "bar". If you're used to seeing barstools where you come from and want to watch football and have a burger, this is a great spot. Highly recommended read more

Found this place, by chance, down one of the many alleys in Venice...I was a little apprehensive since this alley was a little narrower and darker than most. I was pleasantly surprised with how nice it is inside. Pretty nice place to stop in for a beer. read more

We came here on our last night in Italy and had so much fun that we stayed until the bar closed and had a major hangover for our long travel home. The bartenders were all awesome and hilarious. The crowd was really cool too and we made a ton of friends. If we were locals, this would be our spot. Make sure you stop by here for a drink. read more

This one is in all the books but it didn't really impress me. There isn't a bar per se to sit at. The bartender was really hard to get attention from. And worst of all, the menu had times listed for the food but when we tried to order a sandwich we were told only salads were available. read more

Good Irish pub in Venice. Might have too good of a time and walking back was a fun challenge. Would go again.

Very good bar with a variety of beers. Had the soccer games on which I really wanted to see. Best bar that I went to in Venice. The wait staff was prompt and courteous. Recommend. We did not have food. read more

Not sure if I was just exhausted from all the Italian joints we had been into or in a generally great mood but I really enjoyed this pub. We happened to stop in here for a drink when the restaurant across the alley from it that had been recommended to us wasn't open for another 90 min. The bartenders were friendly and the place had a great atmosphere. Stop in here for a drink if you're looking for something unexpected in Venice. read more

This place deserves far below a one star review! They treat tourists terrible because they know the next tourist is around the corner. Went in and got some drinks with the family and when i went to pay with card they said cash only, there was no sign or alert that it was cash only. And beyond that we saw a credit card reader behind the counter. This place is shady and the workers are shady, avoid at all costs there are far better pubs nearby that aren't as shady. Inishark is another pub we found that wasn't as shady just to name an alternative but there are many. Save yourself some headache and just dont even try with this place.. read more
