Fodor's Expert Review The Burren

Somerville Fodor's Choice

Your true-emerald Irish music pub pulls in devoted locals and all fans of craic (enjoyable environment). Enthusiastic staff and professional bartenders expertly pour Guinness on tap and serve comfort food (some of the best fish-and-chips in the area, bangers and mash, Irish stew, shepherd's pie). Dark decor, a tiny sunny west-facing patio, an old-wood library bar, and slate specials add to the allure of live Irish music—acoustic groups—most nights in both the Front and Back Rooms.
