Bittles Bar

Absolutely loved it in here the Guinness was a strong 9.8. The landlord is definitely a character but exceptionally friendly and poured our drinks and delivered them to the table each time. We stayed for 2 drinks as the atmosphere was fabulous and so much to look at. The whiskey selection is something else and to be honest I could of sat in their all day, tourists, locals and lots to look at. Be warned they do not do halves of drinks and it was quite clear if you want a soft drink or non alcoholic drink they are clearly not as accommodating, we were given a warm welcome and great service and for that reason it gets 5 stars from us :)

I’m just reviewing this place on its Guinness but I did see something that I did find rather unusual and after reading previous reviews, something is definitely up….. although it did not bother me. The staff are extremely welcoming to tourists, there’s no doubt about that! But, are they as welcoming to people who don’t order alcohol drinks? That I am unsure of. The Guinness - perfectly poured and great taste. A. However, some random people came in and asked for non alcoholic drinks and a coke where the owner instantly replied no and basically told them to go to Starbucks for that. Was kind of odd? But reading the reviews and eavesdropping on the bartenders - there seems to be more to the story? Found that interaction quite odd. The Guinness was on par for Maddens but the service here was much better!!
