529 verified Irish pubs across 20 cities on Craic Map.
Ireland is the home of the Irish pub — the country has more pubs per head than almost anywhere on earth, with the trade rooted in every village, market town, and city centre. From the trad-music heartlands of County Clare and Galway to the literary haunts of Dublin and the family-run snugs of Cork, the Irish pub scene here is the original and still the deepest.

The highest-reviewed Irish pubs in Ireland on Craic Map.
Craic Map currently lists 529 verified Irish pubs in Ireland, spread across 20 cities. The figure is verified — each pub passes an Irish-identity check before it goes on the map — so the actual count of pubs that call themselves "Irish" in Ireland is higher; we just don't add ones we can't independently verify.
Dublin is the city with the largest cluster of Irish pubs in Ireland on Craic Map. From there, you can filter by feature — live music, traditional sessions, food, outdoor seating, or sports — to find the right pub for the night you're planning.
On Craic Map, the bar is independent of geography — we apply the same Irish-identity check whether the pub is in Dublin or Dubai. That includes evidence of Irish ownership or theming, traditional pub character, named-pub signals (e.g. "O'Connor's", "The Brazen Head"), and at least one verified feature like live music, traditional sessions, or food. Bars that score below the threshold get parked for review rather than published.
Yes — the directory supports filtering by features including live music and traditional Irish music sessions. Browse Irish pubs in Ireland on Craic Map and use the filters at the top to narrow to pubs with music confirmed in their listing.
