Great tunes, great mix of people.
I really enjoyed my time here. The individual interior with the fun artwork really gives it some character.
If you are out West, definitely try to spot in here for a lively weekend jaunt.

One of the many Gems in Cork city… certainly for a well poured pint of Murphy’s stout (Cork’s answer to Guinness).
There’s always a perfect atmosphere in here and I am always surprised how much space there is in here. The exterior can be misleading.
On occassion as well you’ll find artwork from the Crawford students displayed on the wall. This gives a nice mix to the regular pub décor.
I enjoyed a delicious 4pm pint of a saturday in here with a friend last week and it was absolutely relaxing. I highly recommend for anyone who wants a genuine irish pub experience.

Fantastic Place for a nice pint and a good chat. Great place to start a night out. It’s not flashy, its not pretentious. It’s what a modern Irish pub should be like. Friendly atmosphere, great selection of beers and drinks.

I am a bit biased here.
The Oval became my home away from home when I was shipped overseas to work in Cork way back in 91.
I’d love to be back. But, I wanted all to know how wonder a pub this was, quaint friendly patrons, and right across the street from Beamish!!!
Sit back, draw a pint o stout, and enjoy.
