The Corkonian Irish pub in Köln

I liked the Corkonian so much that I forgot to take photos. I've been to a few pubs and they always refused me the Guinness Black (current), i.e. "adulterated" with cassis syrup. And I was reassured by my nice waiter that men also drink Guinness Black. I recommend the Snakebite, a Kilkenney cider mixture. Love it, but my companion couldn't get used to it. The waiters are international, Scottish, Greek (he said his English has a Spanish accent) and Maron (probably dyed blonde, since the name means chestnut brown) is from the south of France. This isn't the last time I've been here. Man, now that sounds like a threat...

Irish pub, always a great atmosphere

Nice pub with delicious different beers

Excellent atmosphere, service and drinks.

OK irish pub beer fine off the main square

Irish pub, you never leave sober

Short vacation in Cologne Service very funny and friendly Keep it up Recommended 😎👍

When you serve your Guinness like this, you're looking forward to it. Very nice. The boys have a lot of fun behind the bar. And we drink nice beers. Nice tent. Really Irish And recommended.

Great pub to relaxe and enjoy an pint

Nice and cozy Irish pub where you can also watch various sports matches.

I like the Corkonian, it is a wonderful Irish pub with a long tradition in the cathedral city. The first time I was here was a little over 25 years ago and not much has changed. The televisions for sports broadcasts have become more and flatter and you can now pay by card (which was frowned upon back then). The drinks are always well prepared and the staff are friendly and accommodating.

Best beer in the whole city!!! Come here there is a nice ambiance and the staff is amazing!!!!

Hi , I am coming to corkonian bar since 2 years atleast 3 days a week , I love the working team and all the bartenders all are nice in service like the bartenders Behrad , Brodie, Eoin , Nick all are nice . I experienced unwelcoming last week and today from bouncers flirting with the girls . Where the girls are sitting in the bouncers chairs and being rude . I hope it changes , still corkonian is the best Irish bar we have .

Unfortunately, the security guard refuses people in advance

Perfect Guinness and atmosphere. Better come not hungry - only chips and nuts. Very friendly staff.

Authentic Irish pub in the heart of Cologne. Also a good place to meet other Irish or English visitors to the city.

Traditionally furnished pub with a typical selection of drinks. Service friendly. Football broadcasts. Interior smells and sounds like a pub too. If you're expecting the scent of spring and the peace and quiet of a meadow, please don't go! Toilets could be cleaned every now and then (a lot of alcohol, a lot of people... A lot goes wrong)... But I deduct that point because Kölsch is also served here.

Very friendly staff in the heart of the square.

Haven't eaten No order was taken in forever Wrong order was brought to the table and missing drinks. BUT you feel like you're in a real pub.

Luckily all the tables outside were occupied, so we were able to get to know the atmosphere inside. Prices reasonable, service very friendly.

Typical Irish pub in Europe. Nice seating outside. The carpet on the floor inside looks like it's been there since the 80s.

There is no food, only drinks available. Must come for Irish beers.

Home from home Cork/Irish owned, great staff and reasonably priced. One of the nicer pints of Guinness I've had abroad in a long time. Lovely terrace and plenty of space inside. Would recommend. No food but plenty of options drinks wise

Fun time with Paola & Michael. Great bier & atmosphere🍺🍺

Proper bar with good people serving you. Don't serve food but any flavour crisps you want 😆

Drinks⭐⭐⭐⭐ Service⭐⭐⭐⭐ Vibe⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Feels like Ireland. The staff is super friendly, fast and you can have a great conversation thanks to the pleasant volume so you'll be happy to order 2-3 more drinks. Always my pleasure!

Great Guinness, bar men unfriendly and stressed. No food. I won‘t be back.

The pub is a handy spot to go for a drink but the service is poor. I ordered two drinks at the bar and the barman asked me 3 different times what I ordered as he was talking to friends and kept forgetting.

Great Irish pub but service was a little slow as only one bartender on the bar.

Was a really amazing atmosphere for watching the football game. Really cozy seating and good prices for drinks. Can only recommend, if you wanna have a pint with your mates in the afternoon

Lively Irish bar in the altermarkt. One of the few places that you can buy beer in 0.5l glasses. Try the Mexikaner.

Very cool bar. Went there in the evening to have a drink and weren't disappointed. We can recommend it and would come back if we are in Cologne again.

Super great staff. Everyone was very friendly and drinks came super quickly. There is no food here, so I don't understand the bad food reviews. I felt very comfortable and could become my regular bar if I wasn't so far away. But I'll be back. Thanks guys for the fun evenings, we laughed so much.

Really great staff, and good beer selection. Patio is great, good music if you like 90s / 2000s alt-rock

Very nicely designed pup. Good choice. Highly recommended

Absolutely. Fantastic place and I will definitely be going there again. And it gets even better they even gave me an umbrella. When it was raining.

My wife and I had a stopover here. The two of us sat right at the counter. The bartender was personable and attentive. The Guinness was fresh and very tasty. Security could be a little more attentive. A group of male, presumably English, tourists misbehaved. The bartender had to take longer to persuade security to take action. Nevertheless, we liked it here and stayed longer than planned.

Excellent Irish pub and Vinny the owner fantastic friendly guy, bar staff were polite and helpful, great pub in the heart of Cologne.

Lots of praise to everyone who made it possible for us to watch Prussia Münster yesterday🤗 Top guys👌

Nice atmosphere and very polite service. The service really does a good job of pouring the Guinness. I really saw something different there

Great place for a terrace Groups larger than 5 are not allowed to push tables together on the terrace due to walking route service

Pub located in the picturesque old town of Köln. Good beer

Irish is fine. Guinness excellent. Prices are Irish but still reasonable. They have live sports on offer and several TV sets in the store, which is great.

Nice reception at the entrance. There were 7 of us and we sat at dirty tables. When there was no service after 10 minutes, we left again.

Authentic Irish pub, unfortunately without Highland Park, otherwise great

Great pub very busy as football day but coped very well decent beer as well

A very nice Irish pub, everything inside is still old, it has something wicked about it, I liked it so much...

Cool Irish pub with a very large selection of beer and other drinks and great service.

Absolutely great, the beer is delicious and freshly tapped. Just take a look and see for yourself.

Decent pint. Not loads of atmosphere.

Really bad. Guinness tasted good but it stayed that way. Service really not good. Normal Sunday with not that busy, waited 15 minutes for service. Toilet…so dirty and smelly.

We ordered several very good Guinnesses. Very pleasant server and fast on service and payment. I recommend

Great place! Super friendly staff, good prices , awesome atmosphere! Ask to meet manager Nick ( Nikos) amazing guy!

Really nice Irish pub with a good selection of drinks. Actually exactly my thing, if the service was good. Unfortunately the service was very disappointing. She looked grim the whole time and when asked why she didn't look a little friendlier, the answer was that it wasn't her job. We then left after a drink. Still, I'll definitely give the store a second chance.

The Guinness was great and the shots were good too, 2nd time we’ve had a session in here and will be back again

Great pub with really friendly staff.

Ice cold cider,really refreshing after a walk around the Altstadt in Cologne

Typical pub in the heart of Köln's Altstadt

Lovely pints of stout, friendly bar staff..very good location and aesthetically has lots of detailed touches to make the bar homely

It's a warm place. Successful in beverages 👍

Great place for a beer after being in the exhibition all day .

Title: Average experience at The Corkonian Irish Pub When I visited The Corkonian Irish Pub in Cologne, I was more disappointed than thrilled. Although the ambience offered a pleasant atmosphere, both the food and the service left something to be desired. The selection of Irish specialties was limited and the quality of the dishes did not meet my expectations. The service was friendly, but a bit slow and inattentive. Overall, my visit to The Corkonian Irish Pub was okay, but nothing special.

Proper Irish pub in the center of Cologne. I haven't tried their food yet, but the important thing is their Guinness is alright. Slainte!

Great pub, I visit cologne , once a year and I always stop by for a cheeky one or two 😊. Friendly city and friendly staff.

No food available, good service.

Rustic pub in the middle of Cologne's old town

Leckeres Bier und netter Service.

Brodrick , (the rookie ) This is the where I always want to see in the bar , the best hospitality and customer relation , the smiling face and his confident behaviour and taking the order over all 100% satisfied service .

Eigenaar is knettergek. Stuurde ons weg vanwege overlast terwijl we aan de bar zaten te ouwehoeren. Geiten toko.

Tolles und sehr gemütliches Pub. Egal wie voll, ein Plätzchen ist immer frei und man fühlt sich willkommen

eher touristisch, es gibt keine Küche, nur Chips und Erdnüsse und jede Runde muss sofort bezahlt werden, was ein bisschen ungemütlich ist. Die Toiletten etwas verranzt, das Personal sehr lieb und eher gemütlich drauf, was ich mag. Kartenzahlung möglich, Personal spricht Englisch und Deutsch.

Traurig, armselig - mit 6 Personen nicht erwünscht.

Absolut nicht zu empfehlen. Mit mehr als 6 personen ist man unerwünscht! Absolutes no go nicht mal ein Bier trinken zu können.

Typisches Irish Pub, Lecker Guinness kuhle Barkeeper, kommen gerne wieder..

Cozy bar in the center. It was the 1st day of 2024 when we visited in here and there was a nice crowd inside unlike other bars around.

Habe dort Dart geguckt. Stimmungsvoller Pub in der Altstadt. Perfekt für ein Bierchen. Pä

Wir kamen am Freitag vor Neujahr in die Kneipe gegen 23:00 Uhr und blieben dann auch bis zum Ende. Statt 2:00 hatte das Lokal dann noch bis 3:30 Uhr geöffnet, was wir sehr gut fanden, da es auch noch sehr voll war. Das Guinness war sehr lecker. Allerdings muss man seine Getränke immer vorne an der Theke bestellen und direkt bezahlen, und dann zu seinem Platz zurücklaufen. Wir wurden über die letzte Runde aufgeklärt und haben nichts mehr bestellt. Als die Kneipe schließen wollte, hatte mein Kumpel und ich noch vor, einen Irish Flag (Likör) zu trinken, woraufhin mir gesagt wurde, dass ja bereits die letzte Runde angekündigt wurde. Das war sehr schade, ich hätte gerne noch mit meinem Kumpel einen Absacker getrunken, zumal das wirklich keine Zeit in Anspruch genommen hätte, im Vergleich zu einem Bier. Insgesamt war es ein wirklich toller Abend, und wir kommen gerne wieder.

Bar Ambiance au top serveur sympathique et super agréable

After spending a couple of hours in Alter Markt Christmas Market enjoying gluhwein, beers,reibekuchen and fries we decided to head to one of our favourite pubs in Cologne namely The Corkonian Pub. A great looking Irish pub, interior is superb, a solid wood serving bar dominates the main room, eclectic decor and furnishings, big screens to enjoy the sport and plenty of seating options spread throughout this pub ,its a great pub to unwind in. We ordered the famous kölsch beer ,these were served in excellent condition being iced cold and sparkling, we just kicked back and took in the great pub we were in. My beer was really good, a golden, light and hoppy lager style beer bursting with taste, when as in this pub its served freezing cold its such a delicious beer indeed. We really enjoyed our beers in here before we moved on and although our visit was only fleeting as on every other visit to The Corkonian Pub we had a great time. The Corkonian Pub is easy to locate on Alter Markt, in my opinion the prettiest square in Cologne, a square and area teeming with pubs, bars, cafe's and restaurants and some amazing architecture. Opening hours are; Monday to Thursday, open from midday. Friday to Sunday, open from 11am. A wonderful Irish pub ,well worth seeking out if you're in the Old Town of Cologne.

Gemütlich ein Kilkenny trinken, was will man mehr🍀

While me and my twin brother were walking around the Heinzels Wintermärchen in the Altstadt we decided to go in here for a few beers.Corkonian is a superb Irish pub that offer a superb drinks range and is located on Alter Markt. This superb Irish pub has a traditional Irish and sports themed interior with nice decor and furnishings and many interesting items throughout the whole interior and many TV screens dotted throughout the whole pubs interior and very nice staff. We went to Corkonian Irish pub early in the afternoon and it was busy but we found an empty table where we had a few beer's.On our visit we had a few pint's of beer's which were superb and really well priced. This is a superb Irish pub that's in a superb area of the Altstadt of Cologne and is well worth visiting and very easy to locate from the bus or tram/u-bahn stops it's just a few minutes walk away.(This is my first review of the Corkonian Irish Pub). Opening Hours. Monday-Thursday-12.00-01.00. Friday-Saturday-11.00-02.00. Sunday-11.00-00.00. Public Transport. Bus Stop. Heumarkt Bus Stops-106-132-133-260-978. Tram/U-Bahn Stop.

Sehr lieb, die Kellner sind sehr freundlich, ich durfte schon zwei Mal mein Handy aufladen ❤️

Good atmosphere and service. Just like what you can expect of an Irish pub. A variety of local, German and ofcourse Irish beer. My wife and I enjoyed our time at the Corkonian.

Gezellige pub. Goede bediening.

Schöner Pub mit Fußballerlebnis.

Does not sell food. Ran out of crisps. Great staff, very friendly and good service. Eat elsewhere and drink here.

Nice Irish pub, service was good

Halt nur ne Touristen Bude. Hatten nur 2 Bier.

Lovely Irish pub, nice staff, good pint of Guinness. I recommend this place to those who'd like to socialise but are limited in German. They can find many English speakers here.

Bester Pub in town. Kaum in Köln , schon Stammgast dort.

Die Musik war gut, das Guinness war lecker, und die Gäste waren hauptsächlich englischsprachig.

Super schöner Abend, vielen Dank für alles! Frohe Weihnachten aus Oberfranken und Thüringen! 🎄

Cooler pub direkt in der Altstadt

Bad in every way!! Do no come here

Mit 10 Freunden kann man hier nicht lange bleiben. Sie können etwas bestellen, aber Sie können nicht lange bleiben. Dann wird man plötzlich aufgefordert, nach draußen zu gehen. ohne jeglichen Grund. Ich vermute, dass Geld wichtiger ist als eine angenehme Umgebung

Great atmosphere. Service is great, people working in the bar are the best. Super friendly and willing to help. I always go back for a glass of Red Breast.

Wer einen schönen irischen Pub mag, ist hier goldrichtig. 👍

Ein richtiger Irish Pub. Die Getränkeauswahl ist ausreichend. Das Personal ist sehr höflich und aufmerksam. Wir waren bestimmt nicht zum letzten Mal da.

Nic nie jadłem tylko piłem 😉 polecam
