Irish Pub entertainment in Amsterdam

  1. A

    Tara

    This expat meeting place combines Irish folksiness with Amsterdam chic. In its maze of rooms (the one-time home of German expressionist Max Beckmann) you’ll find warm fireplaces, a cool bar, gorgeous wall carvings and seats salvaged from an old Irish church. Catch frequent musical happenings and sports on the telly. Meals include burgers, and beef and Guinness pie (mains €12.50 to €15.50).

    Mulligans

    This is probably the most ‘authentic’ Irish pub, at least music-wise. There’s a congenial atmosphere, Guinness on tap, live Irish music most nights from 9.30pm or 10pm (no cover charge) and a tobacco-smoking room (which usually closes about an hour before last call). Sunday sesiàns let you participate. BYOI (instrument) and T (talent).

    Molly Malone’s

    Regularly packed with Irish folk, this dark, woody pub holds spontaneous folk-music sessions. Bring your own guitar and let loose with the other Eireophiles. The (mainly Irish) pub grub is decent and on Mondays they offer curry and a pint for €12.50.

    Durty Nelly’s

    Huge, dark and always busy, this pub attracts foreign visitors from the cheap hotels in the area with fun, drinks, darts and pool. It serves a first-rate Irish breakfast.
