Tully’s Bar – A True Local Gem in Waterford!
Tully’s Bar has such a unique charm – it's where locals go for a real pint, good music, and a relaxed vibe. I was there on a Friday with a live band and Saturday with a DJ, and while I love to dance, the vibe was more chilled – retro tunes, jazz, classic rock – a nice break from the typical commercial scenes.
It’s not your average tourist bar, and that’s what makes it so much better. You’ll find people enjoying their Guinness, local brews (something between a Smithwick's and Guinness – amazing!), and having real conversations. The whole place feels like a secret favorite spot.
Now, if you're like me and used to super cold drinks, you might notice the pints aren’t as icy as expected – they don’t rotate them fast, or maybe they go so quick they get warm – but hey, that’s part of the Irish experience 🇮🇪. Locals don’t mind at all, and honestly, you’ll get used to it.
If you want to experience the real Waterford, with good vibes, music, and local flavour – Tully’s is the place.
