Reviews Summary
Danny Mann Pub is celebrated for its authentic Irish atmosphere, exceptional live traditional music, and friendly service. Diners rave about classic dishes like Fish & Chips and Guinness Stew, with many calling it a Killarney must-visit. While the food and ambiance are largely praised, some note that burgers are always cooked well-done and the music volume can sometimes make conversation difficult.
"Wow, what a night. My cousin and I had been to another …cottage for dinner and Irish night for €50 each. This place is my preferred not just for the fabulous and excellent weighting staff but the cost was less, better menu selection and superb food!!! Best apple pie in town. I could go on about it but you need to try for yourself. My cousin agreed that this venue is superior to other Irish nights you may find 10km out of town. 5/5 Great great singer, he sung from the heart and you could clearly hear what he was singing. He took requests. Thank you from Maura uk 🇬🇧 and Mike from Australia 🇦🇺.
Cost for two about €90 plus tips"

"Food was lovely. Had the Wagyu beef burger. Seasoned well. The only downside was that all the burgers are cooked well done, you can’t choose how you like it cooked.
Chips were tasty. Good selection of alcohol free drinks.
lovely dog friendly separate dining area and even a menu for the pups!!
Lovely staff and fast service"

Ripping up Killarney - best pubs?
The girls and I went in there the lastnight just to see what it was like (I hadn't been in there in years!) and the only other people that were in the bar were 3 men near on 70years of age. We stayed for one and watched a bit of horse-racing while having a chat. But it was obvious our chatting wasn't appreciated as they wanted to watch the racing in peace ...
