Drinking in Killarney 
As previously noted traditional pubs are hard to come by in Killarney with many bending over backwards just a little too far to pander to tourists. That said there is fun to be had if you are in the mood:

• The Danny Man, New St – super-size pub with live music and a party atmosphere nightly during the summer.
• The Killarney Grand, Main Street – more of the same, live music, ballads and lashings of lemonade and tongue sandwiches.
• The Granary, Beech Road – more eclectic choice of music from indie to traditional in a modern, stylish bar.
• Buckleys, Arbutus Hotel – refurbished bar with trad sessions most nights of the week.
• Courtney’s. Plunkett Street – plain wood bar with DJs on the weekends, trad on Thursdays, with a younger crowd.
