    Great concert March 17 congrats!! We really enjoyed the singer and the band. Just one thing the artist was placed near the wardrobe to sell his cds and sign autographs. Next time accommodating artist in better place it’s advisable.

    Thanks

    Made my way to the “Altstadt“, along the cobbled streets in search of an Irish bar. On the phone it got me the exact location but I just couldn’t spot it, until I noticed that there are some shops and the like doing business at below street level, down cellars. So looking closely I managed to find the small Irish bar, at ground level, and down some steep stairs, so be careful!

    Was a small bar for sure, but very cozy, and all set out in the typical style one might expect for an Irish bar. Was happy to see they had Smithwicks, my go to beer when back home in the old country, so naturally went for a pint of Kilkenny’s finest, even though they also had Guinness and Murphys, so it was a tough choice!

    Got chatting to the bar man, Mark, who was very friendly, chatting about football and the bar. I was surprised when he told me that the bar does live music. I couldn’t quite picture where exactly they would play in such a small bar, but then it is an Irish bar so I guess those considerations never really matter! Even musicians from as far as Ireland itself were due to play in the place over the next few weeks! Nice one.

    Got a quick chat with two friendly lassies that walked in for a quick drink. They were telling me how much they loved Ireland and were eager to get back. I dont know, the rain can be a pain!

    Nice bar which is small and cosy in the heart of the old city, good pint, friendly service, will be back for sure if ever back in Bern for a football day out. Recommended.

    Was at the "Open mic" that takes place every 2nd wednesday of the month with free entry and great acts. Also great if you just want to get a drink. The staff (all volunteers) is very friendly and the atmosphere very personal and familial.
    Easy to access by bus (Bärengraben) and in walking distance from center town.
