This might be the worst picture I’ve ever taken of a pint of Guinness. However bad the appearance of the pint was it definitely wasn’t the worst I’ve ever had. This is more of a neighborhood dive bar than an Irish pub. But I like the vibe.

If you need Guinness, it'll do. Most of the time, if you come here a bit later (9pm+), it's strictly a college aged crowd and they will serve you Guinness in a plastic cup. I was fortunate enough to get a proper glass once or twice.

Just meh. Not a good pour, but at least it tasted OK.

This was the Guinness Extra Cold on tap. You don't go to Islay to drink the Guinness, but it was a treat after having a dozen drams of whisky to finish the night with a nice pint.

Might have been because it was the first pint after 12 hours of being on a plane, but this hit in all the right places. Pub inside St Pancras station, so worth popping in for a pint.

Beautiful view in a tiny little town overlooking a historical church and fountain right on the town square. 5/5 for atmosphere, 4/5 for the pint.

This pint looked incredible, but was towards the end of the night, and I remember it looking better than it tasted. Still totally drinkable!

Nice respite after dealing with the tourist traps on the Royal Mile. Ended up looking like an ice cream cone!

This might have been the best pint I had in Edinburgh. Much better than the Belhaven stout!

Expensive, but worth it. Just about the best pint I've had outside of Dublin. The experience is the total opposite of a dimly lit, cozy pub but the pints are fantastic. Also nice merch! I CAN'T FIND THE PIC I TOOK SO I AM USING ANOTHER ONE I FOUND

It gets the job done. I think the Celt Irish Pub in downtown McKinney is better but this is still more than drinkable.

In my opinion, you will never get a 5/5 outside of Ireland. However, The Celt is one of the best I’ve had stateside, especially in Texas. Would highly recommend if you find yourself in McKinney, TX
