Great place for a night out in Limerick! Drinks are a little pricey, but the good vibes definitely make up for it. There is both an indoor and outdoor area, which is great for a breather or cool air after all of the dancing! read more

Great place to visit while in Limerick, Ireland. It's an old bar with a cool vibe. The staff is wonderful and loves to chat with travelers. This is a great city all around but this is an awesome place to visit. It has many rooms that you can sit and drink in. They have different types of beer from Ireland to try. I am more of a wine person but my beer loving friends adore this place as well. read more

Man, I'll tell ya... thank God for yelp! It helped me once again find another great spot. This place was awesome! Looks small as you walk in and everyone is super friendly. And then you keep walking through and BAM! A huge bar in the back with an open air patio... with LIVE MUSIC! This place was packed on a Sunday. Packed and they were a fun crowd. We were so tired, but we didn't wanna leave even at 1am. This place is a must if you're in Limerick (and you like to let your hair down.) This would be a great bar in any city. read more

Nancy Blakes - Sunday night - Pubs Near Me - Limerick, LK

I stopped here for a quick pint and a scenery change when taking a trip from Dublin to the Cliffs of Moher, and what a treat. Once you walk in you'll find walls adorned with dark panels of wood and embellished bar stools at the taps. My fave spot was the gianormous outdoor patio/beer garden that actually opens all the way out to the street as to what looks like an old alley. This place, it just feels right. Just under 5€ for a pint of Guinness, this spot has the old authenticity and warmth that Irish pubs are known to have. Heaps of beers on tap and cheap parking is right across the street if you can't be bothered to park on le street. Lots of yes going on here. read more

Nancy Blakes - The outdoor beer garden - Pubs Near Me - Limerick, LK

Super fun bar in downtown Limerick, which was recommended to us by a server at our hotel's bar. It was a Monday night, so we weren't expecting much in terms of a scene, but Nancy Blakes had a respectable crowd nonetheless. I absolutely loved the outdoor patio set-up, which has an overhang to protect from the elements, plus lots of heat lamps and TVs. One big negative would be the smoking - everyone was lighting up which was not enjoyable for us. There wasn't table service on the patio, so we were grabbing drinks from the adjacent bar. The bartender was super nice and, when he realized that my sister and I were consistently going for the same cider, he went to another area and returned with an armful of ciders to stock his bar. Very nice! At the end of the night, we cut through the front bar to leave and that area was dark, a little too warm, and musty - probably not the area I'd want to hang out. But the patio vibes were on point - very solid spot for drinks, if you can get past the smoking! read more

Pretty much the best pub I've been to in Limerick. Walked in and instantly felt at home thanks to the cozy atmosphere and trio playing in the corner. Don't let this classic Irish pub fool you though, they have a HUGE space in back that's just great. Lively, friendly and a great place to grab a drink. Don't know if they have food, we had just come from an underwhelming dinner at The Locke. read more

Nancy Blakes - Enjoy some traditional tunes. - Pubs Near Me - Limerick, LK

Ah Nancy's, Already this has become an old favourite, old hat, auld ah jesus are we seriously in Nancy's again sort of place. Great for a dance, good for your smoking friends, sound bartenders (one very handsome one, I'll let ye fight amongst yereselves to figure out who ;) ) The only complaint is that they let WAY too many people in on the busy weekends, and it gets very cramped. It's not a place with a great foot-flow either, so you can get wedged into a little corner and feel like you have to stay the night. Tip: there are free postcards in by the bathrooms! For all you foreigners seeking out the joys of Limerick. read more

I visited Nancy Blakes on a Wednesday night in November. Eager to drink some Irish beer and enjoy some live music, my colleagues and I ventured over to Nancy Blakes. The pub has low lighting but becomes more cozy as you near the back of the pub where there was a crackling fire going. The bar tender was friendly and the selection of beer and whiskey is fairly good. Seating is not the best for a large group, but for 2-4 it's a perfect spot to grab a drink and enjoy some local music. This is definitely a place I will be visiting on my next visit to Limerick. read more

Old bar - exactly as you would imagine in Ireland. Friendly, helpful staff. No food served. Quaint, intimate atmosphere. Only bar we could find playing live traditional Irish music late on a Tuesday night. read more

Best pub in limerick id say. The atmosphere is absolutely fantastic. Couldn't ask for anything better. People here make the place from staff to locals. Great warming fire place inside and a nice court yard for all the smokers of the world. Highly recommend a stop here read more

live authentic irish music on tuesday nights - so so so good! such a fun non-touristy place!

Loved it. Nice staff and comfortable atmosphere. Small but lovely setting. Food was better than average but the staff made up for the short comings. Thanks read more

Using their free wifi now, while a trio plays irish music in front (for the entirely Irish clientele, myself exuded). This may be my favorite bar I've been to in the country. The front bit is small and dark, with a 3 person bar by a fireplace. Step further in and you find a few other tiny bars, and a massive outdoor space - looks like Nancy took over the alley next door! read more

Bad ass. Love the eclectic music section and the reasonable drinks. Women visit after 10 pm. So gorgeous.

This place is fun and has a lot of character. The drinks were a fair price and it was very clean. My friend and I enjoyed ourselves.

This is my favourite pub in Limerick. Whenever I come home I have to pay this pub a visit, and preferably have a pint of guinness. There are a few different parts to this bar, but for me the front part is my favourite, with its more traditional look, low lighting and fire place. It's nice to come into during the day and have some pub grub of soup and sandwiches. The back area has a court yard where all the smokers, and nonsmokers can go as it's covered over. Nancys is the kind of place that gets all kinds of crowds and is unpretentious. It can get utterly mobbed as it's so popular, but it's still worth a visit. Get there early if you want a seat! read more

Found this place by accident on saturday evening and stayed there all night. Very busy, get there before 8pm if you want a seat, friendly mix of traditional pub with sawdust on floor and small-town binge drinking nightclub. euro:4.30 for a pint of carlsberg, expensive but no more so than the rest of Limerick. read more

Probably the best known pub in Limerick, pints are always top class and the staff are friendly. Some great live music. Only problem is how stuffed it is. You can barely move, and you can be waiting up to 30 mins to get served!! read more

Good bar with the best of both worlds, the trad front bar, with an outback to let loose, bar service hit and miss, an order of a drink should be served in the right glass so a let down that they don't do this, sometimes its the little things that let a place down read more

Savage craic, but packed every night -- get there early

A pub of two halves, the front bar is a proper old man pub with trad music, roaring fire, great pint, snug and sawdust on the floor. The back bar is more contemporary and raucous with screens for sports, live bands and a beergarden feel. One of the best pubs in Limerick. read more

Amazing pub in Limerick. Stopped in last night on recommendation of a kind gent that we ran into earlier in the night. Pat Fitz was playing and it was a great set, kept getting more crowded as the night went on! Really enjoyed it and would recommend to anyone stopping in Limerick. read more

Nancy's is probably the most popular bar in Limerick. If there's no one in Nancy's than you can be pretty sure that your out on a bad night. Broken up into 3 bars it still gets very packed at weekends. One of the big draws is the covered in court yard where you can smoke which makes Nancy's a draw for every age group. If your in Limerick than this is the city bar you should go to. Start here and let the mood take you to where ever else. read more
