Kelly’s Irish Times
Kelly’s implores: ‘Give me your tired, your hungry, your befuddled masses,’ and the masses respond. Fans of the on-tap Guinness and Wednesday to Saturday live music tend to be younger than the patrons next door at the Dubliner – students and staffers and other suds-drinkers. The layout is like every Irish pub you’ve ever been in, but it’s an exemplar of the genre.

Nanny O’Brien’s Irish Pub
Washington’s most authentic Irish pub, Nanny O’Brien’s has been a favorite with real and wannabe Irish people for decades. You won’t find any cheesy shamrock schlock or shameless promotions here; no, this bar would rather concentrate on serving stiff drinks along with fantastic music. The place is packed and gets pretty rowdy most nights.

The Blaguard
The Blaguard, in addition to having an awesome name, is a great bar to finish an Adams-Morgan night on. After you’ve had too much time dancing and screaming into someone’s ear, you want a place that’ll keep the party going, but is a few notches lower on the crazy scale than a club. Enter this seedy, sticky, superb Irish pub.

Ireland’s Four Courts
Buckets of Guinness lubricate the O’Connors and McDonoughs at Arlington’s favorite Irish pub. The sidewalk seating draws a lunchtime crowd for shepherd’s pie and fish and chips, while the verdant Irish grass-green interior attracts an evening crowd for cold drafts and live tunes.
