Franciscan Well Brewery
The copper vats gleaming behind the bar give the game away - the Franciscan Well brews its own beer. And very good it is too, whether you're after stout, ale, lager or wheat beer. The best place to enjoy it is in the enormous beer garden at the back. The pub holds regular beer festivals with other small Irish breweries - check the website for details.

Havana Browns
One of Cork's most popular clubs, Havana Browns has three bars, a VIP room, an outdoor terrace and a fine line in neon and amber back-lighting. The music doesn't stray far from MTV's current playlist.
-
Hi-B
Up a dingy flight of stairs, tiny Hi-B is one of Cork's most idiosyncratic pubs, in no small part thanks to landlord Brian O'Connell. If you've never been thrown out of a pub and think you've missed out, try getting out your mobile here. Or ordering a soft drink. Or looking at Brian in a 'funny' way. There's jazz on the piano on Wednesday nights to add to the entertainment.

Long Valley
A Cork institution that dates from the mid-19th century and is still going strong, the Long Valley has a landscape that fits its name. The upstairs Hayloft is usually quieter if the main bar is busy.
-
Mutton Lane Inn
Tucked down the tiniest of laneways off St Patrick's St, this inviting pub lit by candles and fairy lights is one of Cork's most intimate drinking holes. It also has one of the best beer selections in the city. It's miniscule and much-admired so try to get in early to bag the snug, or join the smokers perched on beer kegs outside.
-
Other Place

-
