serving up warm welcomes since 1824

Clancy’s Cork has been serving up warm welcomes since 1824, making it one of the city’s oldest and most iconic pubs. Deeply rooted in Cork’s history and nestled on the vibrant Princes Street, the building has passed through generations of well-known publican families, each adding their own chapter to a long-standing tradition of Irish hospitality. 

Heritage at Heart, Innovation on Tap

Today, Clancy’s proudly blends heritage with innovation. We recently unveiled four exciting new experiences under one historic roof –
a multi-sensory Guinness Experience at Arthur’s Bar, elevated dining at our 1824 Restaurant, a dedicated Cocktail Lab serving the entire venue with expertly crafted drinks, and a refreshed rooftop Sky Bar with a vibrant new look and atmosphere, perfect for weekend partying or
group bookings.

anchored in
the values that matter

While our venue continues to evolve, we remain firmly anchored in the values that matter – community, culture, and a genuine love of good food, great drink, and even better company. The story of Clancy’s lives on in the Irish memorabilia that lines our walls and the music that fills the air seven nights a week. 

Whether you’re a local or just passing through, Clancy’s invites you to raise a glass to Cork’s past – and future.
