I’ll keep this short because I agree with all the reviews before me… this place is fantastic. They don’t serve food, but their beer selection is great and their music is spectacular! Get there early to snag a good spot and stake your claim. Music starts around 9pm.

My husband, sister, and I enjoyed several pints and some traditional Irish music at O’Sullivan’s Courthouse Pub in Dingle. We arrived about an hour before the band started to play so we were able to grab one of the few tables near the stage. About 20 minutes before the band started the pub was packed so arrive early if you want seat. Those that arrived after the music started were forced to stand. TIP: Watch for the low hanging beams. My husband had to duck to prevent hitting his head.

Great pub for the music the owner an accomplished musician ensures that there is alway some music happening. Concert, sessions or whatever you are likely to find something going on. great atmosphere, pints and service

Dingle stole my heart, and this little spot contributed to my love for the region. We were in Dingle on a random Tuesday night, and to our delight there was live Trad music. The vocalist had the voice of an angel. Both boyfriend and I were speechless at the raw talent we stumbled across. Despite being extremely busy, the bartender was extremely friendly. Also all of the bar patrons were warm, friendly, and a great deal of fun to share stories with.

I’ve been looking for this traditional Irish Pub all my life! Well, at least for the last 2 weeks that I’ve been in Ireland! Full bar, but who cares! Beer Beer Beer is what sells here! And that’s about it!, Go after dinner at The Old Smokehouse and you will not be sorry!, Yes, you can’t be tall, since the building from the 1600’s has a low ceiling! Deal with it and enjoy! The music is what you’ll go for and you WILL have fun!,

This is one of Dingle’s many amazing pubs for experiencing true Irish music and craic! Tommy and Saundra have their fingers right on the pulse of what makes people tick. It’s a pleasure to see this place packed to the rafters with people enjoying the music and taking in the atmosphere! As previously mentioned, take heed if you are taller than 6ft! But you will want to sacrifice standing for sitting on a stool! Enjoy!

4th of July and we were at a Pub in Kinsale and having a 4th of July Texas BBQ! Tommy O’Sullivan and Caroline Keane played a couple of hours during/afterwards. Great Beer. Great food.(not normally served I believe). Great Music. The place was packed. Watch your head. Some of the ceiling beams are low for a 6 footer. No better place to have been that night. Our stay was 2 nights in Dingle but, when(not if) we get back there again, we’ll definitely head back to Tommy’s pub.

Our first night with our tour group included a barbecue dinner and drinks of all types. We felt the need to return before our tour moved on to the next locale. No dinner the next night(as it is not a common part of the evening) but the drinks, the crowd, and the music are a must to experience. Tommy O’Sullivan is an amazing musician/singer who brings in local talent to join him, who tug at the most basic elements in your soul. The traditional Irish music is sublime. If we could have gone every night for a week or more on a visit, it would have been the best nights spent in Dingle.
