On holidays from Mayo and thoroughly enjoying our stay in Kinsale. I left my cranky husband and hungry kids in the Greyhound while having a "quick" look in the shops. My husband had a great pint and pizza and staff were excellent with the kids. This bar has perfect outdoor eating facilities considering the current limitations. I would like to thank the staff for their kindness and the friendly banter. Will be back again!!!

Mary! Nobody quite like her! During my time as Regional Sales Manager for Beamish and Crawford in the mainland and based in Newcastle Upon Tyne I had the privilege of many visits to Cork and these visits consisted of not only a tour of the brewery but a visit to beautiful Kinsale and a quick visit to The Tap Tavern and the wonderful Mary. It really was a step back in time with her push button A telephone box and a tour of Tim's forge to the rear. Kinsale is truly a wonderful town and full of so much rich Irish heritage. I do miss it so! Love to everyone there and apologies for not mentioning all of my wonderful friends there. Oh to visit again. Brian Thompson 434 Grace St Newcastle NE62RQ

Daltons Bar is a friendly local establishtment that welcomes all visitors from close and afar. We offer authentic Irish Trad Music during summer week nights and encourage all who are are brave enough to sing along, to do so. Daltons offers a large independant apartment which sleeps four people.This is two floors over the bar and features a king bed on the top floor with extra sleeping space on the first floor. There is a kitchen/dining with seperate sittingroom to relax in. The shower w/c is on the first floor. We are centraly located so shops and restaurants are all close by. bike rentals and walking trails abound.
Simply the pub I loved the most in two months of wandering around Ireland. Little and sober place, it doesn't attract too many tourists or young people, which is just extra points to me. The pub regularly hosts Irish trad sessions, again the best I've been to together with the ones in Doolin. There's a bunch of local guys in their 20s who literally rock. I would go back there even just to hear them playing again! The owners are very friendly and have a good selection of whiskey - go for the RedBreast, they keep it on the high shelf! ;)

We ate here recently as a couple. I couldn't fault the food. We had tuna, monkfish and a lemon tart for desert. All delicious. The staff were helpful and friendly. Was unable to leave a gratuity when paying by card which I found strange but full marks otherwise

This is one of the best pubs in Cork for sure. Legendary atmosphere and live music. Well worth a visit.

After a hike up to James Fort, a cuppa or a pint of ale or cider is a refreshing way to end the adventure at The Dock. A country pub with no fuss, just go get your drinks, sit, chat and enjoy and probably get into some great conversations with others on the patio. For the really energetic walker, The Dock/James Fort and the local beach are an easy walk on the footpath and across the bridge from the town of Kinsale, even in the evenings when the road lamps light your walk home.
