Kitty O'Shea's (CLOSED)

Despite the fact that it's part of an international chain, Kitty O'Shea's is one of the city's nicer Irish pubs. With its cosy rooms, stained-glass windows, dark mahogany bar and ornate plaster ceilings, it's not a far cry from some of the old dames you'd find in Dublin. The Irish bartenders reinforce the authenticity, and the Guinness is some of the best around.
