Tara Irish Pub (The), Amsterdam

Amsterdam has quite a few Irish pubs and this is one of the best. Located on the Rokin, the Tara is a trendy pub frequented mainly by tourists and Brits who have made Amsterdam their home. The interior is lovely with the highlight being an authentic fireplace to sit by during those long winter months. You can take the opportunity to play pool or watch premiership football matches on the TV. Musically, the Tara is a mixed bag. The live music, which can be enjoyed on most Saturdays, is generally folky American or Irish tunes, whilst on other nights you are at the mercy of the bar personnel. The food is good, and drinks are slightly more expensive than at other places, but the atmosphere is always friendly.
