Trad sessions each day at 5.30pm & 9.30pm. Bustling and friendly, this 150 year old cheery village pub is enjoyed by locals and visitors alike.

come to come along and listen or play (if you can) and there's no cover charge. Sharon Shannon and Sean Keane have performed here, as well as a number of wandering minstrels and local musicians. Famous for being a GAA pub, Taaffes also sells the best pint of Guinness in the city, and it won’t disappoint. Good quality bar food is served all day with generous keenly-priced portions.
