Of course there are great pubs in Dublin, Limerick and Galway, but what about Paris pubs? We have searched out the best Irish pubs in some unlikely places because sometimes you just gotta have some pub grub and an authentic pint!

Kitty O’Shea’s Pub and Restaurant
One of the most authentic pubs in Paris, Kitty O’Shea’s is set right in the heart of Paris. The owner and wait-staff are all Irish and so is the decor. it has become legendary across Europe as a sporting pub, and is particularly renowned for rugby. The food is good especially the famous sweet apple crumble. Owner Brian Loughney also owns another popular Paris pub, the James Joyce.

James Joyce Pub and Restaurant
Decorated with James Joyce memorabilia and serving Irish (and French) pub fare, we think that you will enjoy this bit ‘o Ireland in Paris. The pub has 12 stained glass windows, which were commissioned especially for the James Joyce by Ireland’s foremost stained-glass artist, Bill Earley. These windows tell the story of Ulysses chapter by chapter. Other stained-glass windows feature Irish literary giants of the twentieth century.

The Hideout
Often the liveliest Irish Pub in Paris, The Hideout bills itself as the Young Irish Pub. Good selection of relatively cheap beers and a lively CD selection make for a good atmosphere. They offer Kronenbourg 1664, Kilkenny, and Guinness and more, plus ciders on draught. Live music on weekends makes this place live up to the hype.
