This large pub and venue is the main attraction in the town. The ques can reach around the corner on busy nights weekends depending on what time you visit. As for Reidys itself It is like a little village of pubs all interconnected with large open area that are covered in the beer gardens. Their is large screen TVs cosy corners and quirky memrobealia every where you turn and look. With old style and vintage photos and nic nacks. Service is a bit slow but that is to be expected unless the get another small army of staff. It serves food at day time and it also caters for live music and bands. Well impressed with this crowd pleasing fun establishment. Highly recommended.

We found our way back to Reidy’s both nights we stayed in Killarney. The live music was superb! We loved the atmosphere inside, with snug booths and a plethora of memorabilia. If you keep walking through, you’ll wind up in the courtyard, which is a great place to watch the live music. There are multiple bars and restrooms. The service was so fast and the drinks were great!

I had the fish and chips which i felt was freshly made. The seafood chowder was deemed delicious by my fellow guests. Tight but cozy dining.

Favorite place in Killarney! We came on a Monday night for a drink and ended up staying until close. Live music, friendly staff, delicious Guinness, and an awesome atmosphere with plenty of seating space… what more could you ask for?

More information

Although famed for its music and pints, Reidys can feel like several small venues under one roof — the management frequently reconfigures rooms for private gatherings, and musicians often take requests during sets. Also, combo meals have been handled strictly by staff in the past (sides sometimes omitted), so it’s worth confirming what’s included when you order.
