Across the road from Dan Sheehans bar on the main Cork to Macroom road is Podsies bar. As far as i am aware it is owned by former Cork footballer Podsie O’ Mahony. We walked into this pub at about half six on a Sunday evening. I think it was the bar section we were in. It was busy with a guy on guitar up playing where the pool table is. Myself and Jen got a seat and took in our surroundings. I ordered a pint of Murphy’s and a diet Coke and i was served by a very pleasant lady. We sat and enjoyed the music and there was good craic amongst the people inside. The pint of Murphy’s i had was very enjoyable and couldn’t complain about it.
The toilets that i used out the back are small and were not in great condition. There is a car park out the back and i am not sure but i think there is a smoking area available here as well. I didn’t head out because of torrential rain! It appeared to be very much a locals pub and attracted a good crowd on a Sunday evening. I saw a notice behind the bar that was advertising live music that will be in the pub in the future.
Toilet rating: 5/10
Pint rating: 7.5/10
Overall rating: 7/10
Final comment: Podsies was a nice place to stop off at for a drink. It enjoys a prominent road side location.
