Barney Vallely's in Köln

Amazingly friendly. One of the best pints of Guinness outside of Ireland. Charlie and his staff can't do enough to make you feel welcome will definitely be back.

A super cozy little pub. The service is very friendly and accommodating.

Nice little bar! Waiter was very nice and attentive. Toilets small but clean. Only recommended!

Very welcoming bar attendant, chatted to everyone who came in. Provided table service and kept all the tables clear of empty glasses Nice atmosphere, nice beers.

Service and ambience in typical Irish bar quality. Very great bar when it comes to having something smaller as a bar. Unfortunately, I miss typical Irish dishes. But they are often missing here in Germany

I‘ve never seen the like before. Barkeeper too busy. Forget about that Pub.

Great atmosphere, staff were great, we were in to watch the rugby and Lucas the barman made sure when a spot became free that he moved us up front to the tv where it was going to be shown. Highly recommend and will happily visit again on our next trip.

Shout out to lucas who made sure we had seats for the rugby but in fairness they made sure that ppl that wanted to watch the soccer and rugby were all in the right spot.

Barkeeper does not know how to serve beer! On plus, he is a very unpolite guy who doesnt want to act up on his customer demands! Would Never ever go again! 2/10

Last week I watched the bartender tell this group of English guys that he wasn’t going to turn on the England game over the Ireland game, they asked him over and over each time with a different guy trying to convince him, he stood his ground, and they got pissed and left…it was awesome to witness, one of my best memories in an Irish Pub🇨🇮🤝🇺🇸 Besides that, also a great pub. Good beers. Nice and comfortable feel to it.

It's going ok. Ambience cool. NFL broadcast also great. Bartender gave us 2 more pints than we ordered (100% sure. I'm studying English for a master's degree and know exactly what we ordered). He then simply said so and then left the two beers and we had to pay for them. Then we just did it and drank. But a very unpleasant situation that no attempt was made to defuse (customer-oriented). After all, it wasn't us who made the mistake, it was the bartender. By the way, the bartender was a taller, slim gentleman with dark hair. We were there on October 6th. there in the evening... Because of this promotion we will definitely not be coming back. Too bad.

Great service, great music! We'll be back!

We had a group of 12 business colleagues. We wanted a post dinner drink. We were refused service when the bar was literally empty, as they refused to serve of party of larger than 8!! Get real you idiots!

No food, only amazing drinks and beer

Very unfriendly staff. The bartenders are only interested in making a profit and won't let any guests in.

Nice little pub in Cologne, not to far from the Dom. Guinness on tap. Was hoping to get some Guinness 0.0. Settled for a Weizenbeer alkohol-free.

Great Guinness top service But Irish music requests are not taken into account 😒

Started out fun, had a few good drinks, watched a FC Köln match, all was good. Until we started cheering after a Tottenham goal vs Manchester United and the owner said we couldn't make any noise. Also, sing Irish pub songs during the commercials of a match is forbidden. 0/10 experience.

Owner does not like it if you root for the (in his eyes) wrong team. They do not have anything to eat. One of the worst, or maybe the, Irish pubs I have ever been

Excellent service. You need to stop here if you are in the area. Good drinks and good atmosphere

Gresr irish beer and the atmosphere!

Great little Irish bar and a pleasant welcome from the owner.

Best Guinness in Cologne, the staff is amazing. Please tip them they work alone and they do it awesome.

Nice pub, the owner is super friendly

Good spot to watch the sports ...very welcoming

Typical Irish pub including the Irish bar man. Sports shown on screens and the usual Irish beverages.

Central but on a side street Nice staff Great bank note collection Good to meet people Not many beers on draft Recommended

We arrived late and were given a nice welcome by the innkeeper, there was a pleasant atmosphere and we received a well-poured Guinness.

Cozy pub, cool cider! But the waiter was rude and unprofessional. There were two of us there and the first comment was that we were too drunk to be served. We weren't drunk… after a short discussion in English we were served.

We enjoyed the friendliness of the staff/restaurant owners and the relaxed time there. A little Ireland in Cologne.

Small little irish pub, great draughts

Very cozy Irish pub, nice staff and audience, good draft beer, delicious shots.

Best pint of Guinness in Cologne. Very decent pour considering Guinness doesnt tend to travel well. The staff is super friendly, the vibes are always great.

Turned away for wanting to watch the rugby

Very nice bartenders and delicious beer

Went to watch football, but it was closed, should update your opening hours..

Closed at 6pm (only to go) even though opening hours open after 11am

One of the best pubs in the region and the best Irish pub in nrw.

This is a great place to go for a relaxing few drinks away from the main square but close enough to walk there and to the riverside within minutes. Charlie and The Staff are brilliant and can't do enough to make you welcome. I would recommend everyone visits here at least once as you won't be disappointed.

Lively Irish bar with a good selection of drinks. Friendly attentive staff.

Very good and friendly irish pub.

Great Irish pub in Cologne, home away from home, friendly and good craic with staff 😎

Nice place to enjoy a longer stay at Cologne train station even late in the evening. The atmosphere is great and the service is excellent. Real Irish pub with Kölsch.

Top location for a relaxed evening. Gladly again 👌🏻.

Typical Irish pup. Very cool atmosphere, great owners. When we're back in Cologne, we'll come back

Great friendly owner, staff and pub

Very nice little Irish pub. Guinness tastes good. With live Spirt transmission. We recommend.

The best Irish Pub in Cologne. Very nice service, 3 TVs to watch football especially UCL. Competitive beer prices

Good pub. During our visit a live band played Irish music. Great mood!

Cozy Pub, nice atmosphere, live music!

Great pint of Guiness. Sport. Good atmosphere. What more do you want.

Very nice and cozy. We felt very comfortable. Am thrilled. Beer was great.

Cozy Irish pub, nice people, reasonable prices

A superb Guinness and the service was impeccable 👌

The best pint of guinness that i had in Europe outside of Ireland. The bartenders are really nice and it feels like you are in an actual pub in Dublin or Galway. Absolutely recomended

Lukas has been a perfect bartender. This man works with passion! Thank you very much for my perfect first Guiness! If I come back, I will drink another one here!

It was my first time in this pub. The atmosphere was as a pub should be. I immediately felt at home, it was rustic, loud and full. But everyone was very friendly and the staff was great too! Great pub, I would definitely visit again!

Great pint of Guinness and a well run establishment. If you're in cologne and fancy something other than kolsch, you'll do well to end up here.

My pub of choice in Alt Köln. Usually understaffed during peak hours, but still our place to gather and have a Guinness

After a nice dinner it was a great place We enjoyed our time with friends. We will be back on our next visit to Cologne. Interested Bar with all the Roof and Bar with Money from all over the world. Nice & friendly staff.

Very nice, authentic pub with real beer and staff. Again and again!

Super great pup, brilliant employees. Saved me. Simply recommended. Come here and enjoy the evening.

Great pub in the heart of Cologne The boss is very nice

Stable bar, stable dude behind the bar! Ideal for really unwinding your synapses again

Staff were very accommodating. Don't serve food

Very cozy and authentic pub. I particularly liked the beer combination "Snake-Bite". The music matched the ambience. My friend and I tried all the beers and all the shots and then stumbled out after a wonderful evening.

A lovely place to a drink, charming barman, great music and fantastic experience!!

Just had beer. Wasn’t that bad if you get there early.

Here you can comfortably drink beer and other drinks 🇮🇪👍

Went there for a drink and watched the football game

Lovely Irish bar run by a friendly guy, recommend stopping in for drinks.

I was on vacation for 3 weeks in Cologne and it was without a doubt my favorite bar. If you like the Premier League you will always find a match to watch

Super Bar um Abends zu veweilen. Preise und Getränkeauswahl ist super. Achtung, als deutsch Sprechende/r ist man hier eine Ausnahme. Die meisten sprechen hier englisch

Pub and bar around this part of the city on a cold and rainy December night we decided to drop into Barney Valley's Irish Pub ,been here many times over the years, always had a good time and so it proved on our latest visit. I love the look of this pub, interior is superb, a cool looking island style serving bar dominates the main room,big screens to enjoy the sport ,pubby decor and furnishings including plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub ,its just a really good pub to unwind in. We were greeted warmly by a very pleasant member of the bar team, we ordered pints of Gilden kölsch beer ,these were served in excellent condition being iced cold and sparkling and we just kicked back and took in the great pub we were in. A big fan of the various kölsch beers served in this vibrant city on the River Rhine and Gilden kölsch is one of the best ,a golden, light and hoppy lager style beer bursting with taste and very easy to drink especially when served freezing cold, after finishing our lagers we decided to have a guinness each, poured in the correct manner even allowing time for the all important settle, the guinness served in here is as good as it gets in Cologne, dark,smooth, creamy and most importantly iced cold, it was just so good being in such a lovely pub enjoying a quality brew and sat with my twin brother, best beer companion in the world. We both really enjoyed our time in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to here we had a great time. Barney Valley's Irish Pub is easy to locate along Kleine Budengaße. Opening hours are; Monday to Sunday, open from 11am. Well worth checking out if you're in the area.

Nice little spot, friendly staff, great location, fair enough prices.

Ich finde es ist echt ein cooler laden. Ich war hier mit meiner Freundin und ein paar freunden es ist wirklich ein laden für jeder man ich bin so positiv überrascht es wir viel englisch gesprochen was auch mega cool ist und einfach mal was anderes als sonst echt toll kommen gerne wieder!!!!

Love this place every time we come to cologne we pop in. Charlie and his team always look after us and plenty sport on TVs! Music great also.

Great pub with friendly staff. Excellent Murphy's. Nice atmosphere, and open late

Me and my twin brother were visiting a few of the site's around this brilliant area when we decided to have a few beer's in Barney Vallely's'an excellent Irish pub that offers a superb range of well priced drinks.

When we visited here this brilliant Irish pub was just starting to get busy as they where showing live sport.On our visit to this place we had a few pints of Guinness which were superb and where really well priced for an Irish pub of this quality. Barney Vallely is a superb Irish pub thats in a brilliant area of Cologne and is without a doubt one of the friendliest pubs we visited and well worth visiting and very easy to get to from Rathaus tram/u-bahn stops it's only a minute's walk to Kleine Budengasse were Barney Vallely's is located.

Service was incredible, pub was clean, atmosphere was perfect, and the drinks were spot-on and well priced. Thought I was in Ireland for a whole hour 😂 Thank you so much!

Great pub and staff - Well worth a visit - Go here everytime I'm in Koln 😄 - Great place to watch Sport

Sehr gemütliche Kneipe mit tollem Ambiente und netter Bedienung. Man fühlt sich direkt wohl.

Nice little Irish bar with friendly staff. Good Guinness too!!

Pretty cheap drinks with a great atmosphere. Nice spot to dive into during the Christmas markets

Gemütliches Pub, nettes Publikum, jeglichen Alters, coole Bedienung

Lovely little bar in the centre of town. Reasonably orices drinks with 3 screens showing 3 different matches in Champions League. Staff were very nice.

Kann man empfehlen. Personal war gut drauf.

Äußerst sympathische Kneipe, coole deko, gutes Bier und sehr freundlicher Wirt!

Never let down by this place. Service always brilliant whether you are the only customer or they are rammed to the rafters. ps. Never eaten here, but if they do do food I am confident it would be great!

The bartender didn't seem cool with a bunch of us, even though the bar was pretty empty. There were about 10 of us trying to grab a drink, but he was super rude. In the end, he straight up said no to serving us. I don't get why he's so against a group. Maybe racist attitude?

Der Barkeeper ist sehr unfreundlich. Geht lieber wo andets hin

Einen wunderschönen Abend verbracht 😃

Decent Irish pub in the heart of cologne

Great place. The owner was very friendly. It was busy, but this guy managed to make everyone feel welcome, was pouring drinks, greeting people, cleaning up tables, taking payments. He is super proficient. He's owned the place for 26 years if I recall correctly.

Great overall experience, delicious Guinness beer and superb atmosphere! 🍻🍻

Sehr nettes Personal, auf Wünsche für gezeigte Fußballspiele wurde ebenfalls eingegangen. Preise sind in Ordnung. Würde jederzeit wieder hierherkommen.

Nice little Irish pub, reasonably priced but quite small. It gets very busy when there is football or rugby on the screens. Staff are friendly and the beer was good.

Best rugby bar in Cologne. Great bar staff and owner, they genuinely care about their customers! 😀

Urige irische Kneipe. Sehr nettes Personal.

Amazing service. I was in the mood for whisky, but not in the mood to choose. I asked the bartender, Lucas, to pick me a whisky and he then asked me if I had eaten dinner already. I thought he was wanting to see if I wanted a food menu, but he was actually asking to better pair the whisky based on what I had recently eaten. Was not expecting that. Very knowledgeable about whisky and great service. If you are in Köln stop by for some good whisky.
