    Open session was pretty cool. The musicians were wonderful and it was a real treat to us Americans looking for some live traditional music.

    Music was brilliant, a little loud for having a meal with friends and wanting to chat, but the food was lovely. Service was a little slow, but was lovely to have time to enjoy the music and surroundings

    V good traditional music; good food and quick service. Venue is small / cosy and it can be v loud while eating. I still recommend for authenticity.

    Great evening with good music. Hootenanny is an eclectic spot where you must make a reservation or you may be able to stand at the bar.

    Try to avoid any table by the bar as lots of folks come in and hang around right where you are. Food was good, not exceptional.
