JJ Walsh's in Cork

A wide variety of beers and other drinks. We sought it out for the live music, and it didn't disappoint. We'll definitely be back.

Go there every Saturday afternoon. It’s a lovely pub but some staff don’t pull the Guinness properly they don’t let it settle. Some of the staff don’t take notice off people waiting to be served. Was talking with a gentleman who is mature standing at the bar had my credit card in my hand waving for attention but everyone after me got served 1st, asked the young fella behind the bar is anyone serving I’ve been waiting 10 minutes & he explained he didn’t notice me. The counter space was empty. We like the bar so we will come back. Glasses can be dirty

Visited here on a stag do - Cork won the hurling, atmosphere was electric! Band spotted us Scots so played 3 Scottish songs for us - brilliant! :-)

I couldn’t complement the staff, food and pint more

Cool venue, nice decor, good drinks, great live bands too.

We loved coming here to listen to live music and drink beer. Impressive how the bar suddenly fills up from 10:30 p.m., especially on Thursday evenings! Very good atmosphere, to do!

The perfect Irish pub feeling! First time in Ireland, not our last!!

Lovely wee pub! Had a few singers in too which was so nice to hear local people singing ❤️

Phenomenal traditional Irish music, amazing atmosphere!

George, the Serbian bouncer at JJ Walsh in Cork is hands down one of the best I’ve ever come across. I see him often when I’m at the pub, and every time, he goes above and beyond to create a welcoming and safe atmosphere. George is incredibly professional, always greeting people with a smile and treating everyone with respect. He’s approachable and friendly, which instantly puts you at ease, but you can also see that he takes his responsibilities seriously, ensuring the pub is a safe and enjoyable place for everyone. What makes George stand out is his consistent kindness and positive energy. He remembers regulars and takes the time to say hello, which makes JJ Walsh feel like more than just a pub—it feels like a community. JJ Walsh is lucky to have someone like George representing them. It’s people like him who make nights out extra special. Huge thanks, George—you’re a legend!
