Luck o’ the Irish at Flanagan’s Irish Pub in Vienna

by



Vienna, Austria is known as “Europe’s Main Street” and you can find pretty much anything you want on a visit to Vienna. Including an authentic Irish pub. Irish pubs are popular throughout mainland Europe, but there are few Irish pubs as authentic as Flanagan’s Irish Pub in Vienna. Why? Because this Irish pub is actually from Ireland.

Flanagans Irish Pub: carried across sea and continent

462365_clover_leaf.jpgOriginally, Flanagan’s Irish Pub stood for centuries in Church-town, County Cork in Ireland. It was a public house in the village. Then it was taken down, quite carefully, piece by piece and carried to Vienna. It was rebuilt as an Irish pub in 1996, and named Flanagan’s. It is owned and staffeed by Irish residents of Vienna. Flanagan’s Irish Pub offers an array of expected pub foods (tasty and reasonably priced), and, of course, Guiness on tap. Additionally, there are plenty of TVs throughout the establishment, tuned to sports. A big screen TV in the back is ideal for watching soccer matches. There are plenty of ex-pats mingling with the local crowd so that the authentic flavor remains true.

The pub’s closing time is 4 a.m., so things become really lively later in the evening. Whether looking for a bit of a break from the club scene, or just looking for a place to relax, you can find what you’re looking for at Flanagan’s Irish Pub.
