Don’t miss the atmosphere: Here are 5 great bars to watch Ireland’s European odyssey

JOE

Where are you watching the game?

The majority of Irish supporters won’t be able to go to France, but worry not, as the craic at home is going to be just as mighty!

From the North to the South and from the East to the West, we’ve got the lowdown on the finest bars to watch the game.

So without further ado, here are the places that will make you feel like you’re on the Seine.

XICO on Baggot Street, Dublin 

If you’re around the capital on a matchday, then Xico is the place to be. Every single game will be littered across their many widescreens.

Not only that, they’re also running a fantastic special of 50 wings and a bucket of beer priced at €50. What more could you ask for?

You can book a table here.

Dunnes in Carrick On Shannon 

Three Ireland legends, 15 HD screens and two 12×9 projectors.

And if you’re in Carrick on Shannon, or anywhere near it, there is only one place you should be watching the Euros.

Reardens in Cork 

Reardens is the spot to be if you’re in Cork. It has got enough TVs to keep anyone happy. The drink will be flowing, the food will be flying and the atmosphere will be popping!

Da Vinci’s in Derry

With so many Derry lads involved in the Irish set-up, it would be ridiculous of us to ignore the city.

When it comes to watching the game up there, there is nowhere better than Da Vinci’s for a nice pint and bit of craic.
Massimo’s in Galway 

The good folks in Massimo’s are sport mad, so they’re certain to be up for the tournament.

Get there early though, as the atmosphere will be absolutely brilliant.
