The Irish Times

Your eyes may need some adjusting once you enter the Irish Times, a divey, dimly-lit Irish pub, but give it some time and you’ll soon find yourself comfortably immersed in your surroundings, where Celtic music drifts throughout the room. That’s because comfort is key at this Culver City bar, where regulars gather for trivia on Tuesdays and Thursdays while noshing on bangers and mash or beef-and-Guinness pie—they even have traditional roasts on Sunday afternoons. There’s also karaoke on Wednesdays and live bands that perform on Fridays and Saturdays (no cover!)—but nothing tops the noise coming from tables of regulars who’ve camped out at the pub since noon. Not a regular yet? Order a pint of Strongbow Cider, pick up a pool cue and you’ll be sure to make friends in no time.
