Mr Bradley’s

Address: 56 Barrack St, Ballyphehane, Cork, T12 H285, Ireland

Mr. Bradley’s is a cherished traditional Irish pub and music venue on Barrack Street, celebrated for its laid-back charm and being an excellent spot for a quality pint of stout. The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, featuring an open fire and multiple nooks perfect for quiet conversation. A standout feature is the spacious, heated beer garden, often cited as one of the best in Cork. Although the bar does not serve its own food, patrons are welcome to enjoy pizzas from the adjoining La Tana pizzeria on the premises.

The pub is a vital hub for Cork’s music scene, hosting live entertainment almost nightly, including full bands on weekends, spontaneous Traditional music sessions, and dedicated original music nights called “The Fireside Sessions” every Wednesday. Its long-standing reputation as an unpretentious music haven and a place with friendly, efficient staff makes it a local favorite. The pub is typically open from 5:00 PM on weekdays and 4:00 PM on weekends, extending hours until 1:00 AM on Saturdays and Sundays.
