Flannerys

Flannerys is a pub on the Glasheen road just down from St Finbarrs cemetary. It has undergone massive renovations recently and it is now a trendy type of super pub. There are two entrances into Flannerys. There is car parking around the side for a good lot of cars. Also you will notice at the car park enterance there’s a recently constructed smoking shelter with heaters to cuddle up to on these cold winter nights! As you walk in the entrance on the Glasheen road the bar is in front of you and goes around in a semi circle. It is a very modern looking pub with high ceilings and superb wood furnishings. There are various seating areas down stairs. As you walk through the bar you’ll notice two stairs at either end of the pub. If you go up one stairs there is a cozy balcony area that can fit about 10 people. The other stairs brings you up higher to an upstairs bar. There is lots of room up here to sit down as well. The pints in Flannerys are ok. They are always alright, never bad but never excellent either. It is expensive enough for drinks in there.

The toilets are very clean and well maintained. Any time i have ever been in Flannerys it hasn’t been very busy. It is relatively quiet during the week and can get busy at weekends but i have mainly been in there during the week. They do a decent lunch between 12 and 2pm and at the weekends they normally have some sort of live entertainment. I think it’s a great pub because it has the size of a super pub but it maintains its charm at the same time. I would definitely recommend heading to Flannerys for a few pints as its a nice suburban pub where you can have a drink in fantastic surroundings.

Toilet rating: 9/10
Pint rating 7/10

Final comment: If in the Wilton or Glasheen area take a look at the refurbished Flannerys. It’s certainly worth one visit so you can make up your own mind about the place!
