Bar hoppers can find no kiss-happy tourists in Blarney Stone, a traditional Irish enclave, but just a fabulously friendly staff and a strong base of regulars.

A charming Irish duo plays beer-toasting ballads every night except Tuesdays. Bar hoppers will find the classic Irish pub fare like fish and chips, cottage pie and a mean steak sandwich served with the works.

Perfect for unassuming alcoholic encounters.
