A pub and a witch story. The story of the witch at Kyteler's got us there. The Guiness and the decent pub food kept us there. It was a nice, comfortable place to grab dinner and relax on our first evening.
-
We walked in off the street and walked upstairs where we could hear traditional music. They sat us right up front. The music and dancers were great. When that group was done, the waiter told us that more music was downstairs...

Heard lots about this place from the tour guide so just had to check it out. So glad we did! Got to participate in the drumming lesson with Damien Walsh. That was a blast! Had a chicken dish for dinner that was amazingly delicious. Highly recommend..

All summer long our guests have raved about their time in Kyteler’s Inn and happy customers in the evening time make for very happy guests at breakfast! Really a great experience for all visitors to Kilkenny.

Sunday night and an Irish band was playing

We were treated to absolutely great traditional music by the Raglan Rogues (great voices and players), and an enthusiastic crowd. The Irish set the bar for friendliness and this evening was no exception.

This pub has been around since the 1300’s and still serves great Irish stew. Good service, lots of beer selections and good live entertainment every night. A must stop of you are in Kilkenny.

Went for lunch with my mother on a Saturday afternoon. Very busy on the day but that didn't take from the experience. Great service waited about 1min while a member of staff found us a table. Food was good, fresh, tasty and very satisfying.

This bar/restaurant is a must to stop off in when visiting Kilkenny, hearty Irish food served, the menu hasn't changed in the last 10 years but why change what works, pleasant staff and fast efficient service

The singers they had were awesome… Really great, on tune and by far the best pub singers we saw. The service was also excellent - all the staff were very friendly.

“Great Food, Great Staff!!”. On our way home from Cork we decided to stop in Kilkenny for a bit of dinner and a pint! Ordered a pint of Kilkenny and some good old hearty pub grub. The pint was the best I've ever had and the food was amazing!!!

Beautiful pub and food. I have to mention the staff. They were so friendly. Kytelers will definitely be on my list for my next visit to Kilkenny. The food was great too, a small bowl of stew and a toasted sandwich.

Huge praise for the wonderful evening entertainment with the Irish Beats experience and the beautiful meal and excellent service which followed... they all said to me today that it was the best night ever in all their holiday experiences to Ireland.

"A Magical place". We eat here regularly the food is like home cooking, tasty and plenty, they run great fun nights, our favorite being the bodhran night . Great history of witches, one of the oldest buildings in Kilkenny, a must visit.
