Crane Bar in Galway

Great pints,great people,great place,trad music brilliant.

The real deal with a heavenly pint of G, your only man...

Our guide from Dublin recommended this pub for Trad music. He was spot on. Great music.

One of the top spots for Traditional Irish Music in Galway. Incredible atmosphere upstairs for the sessions.

Had a great night here sitting at the bar for a few before the bartender told us there was music upstairs. We nabbed a spot upstairs and enjoyed some local music for a bit. Easy to get a drink and crowd was extremely friendly.

Could not have asked for a better experience in Galway than joining for one of their traditional music nights. The atmosphere was incredible and felt completely authentic.

Nice old bar with occasionally „story telling“ experience

Excellent evening spent here. A real treat to have so many lovely singers and characters in one place.

Visited for the Thursday evening Celtic Tales storytelling which was a highlight of our family’s trip to Galway. The cozy room upstairs has a solid selection of whiskey and draft beers and is the perfect venue for classic storytelling.I highly recommend checking it out (pre-sale tickets are available).

This is a great pub with traditional Irish music and a great atmosphere. The music is variable often depending on the night of the week. There have been world class traditional Irish musicians who have played here simply because they like the owner Recently Mike McGolderick, Dezi Donnelly and Tim Eady lifted the rafters with their brilliance with Sean Smyth joining them for a few tunes. Never saw any session as breathtakingly good as that.
