What User doesn't like about Hi-b:
Been going to the Hi B on and off for about 15 years. Everyone knew about the grumpy owner who didn't like phones. A lot of time has passed and now the phone thing, which was never as big a deal, is being enforced in an exaggerated way by the kids that work there who scream at you if they see you take out your phone, backed up by a load of people that admit they've never been there before who are just taking part in...

brilliant, just like sitting in the room! no cell phone rule, which means that everyone talk to each other, really enjoyed it and even videot, but he was upset! View all feedback.

The Hi B in Cork is a legendary spot with a strict no phone policy and a colorful history. While some recent visitors have criticized the bar staff for enforcing the rule aggressively, many others still appreciate the traditional vibe and authentic atmosphere. With live music, eccentric locals, and a unique ambiance, the Hi B offers a one-of-a-kind experience that's worth a visit. Enjoy a pint, soak in the historic pub culture, and escape the chaos of the city streets. It's a hidden gem that captures the essence of Irish pub life and hospitality.

This bar is the reason I love the city of Cork. We stopped in just for curiosity's sake and were planning on going on a bar crawl to check out the local...

Nestled above the corner of Winthrop and Oliver Plunkett street, is a unique little piece of Irish pub history. If they took the tiny advertising sign away,...
