Tiniest Irish Bar

Kelly's Irish Pub

Sometimes small spaces can have the biggest impact, and this isn't a joke about the car crash that only faintly cooled the soft opening of Kelly’s Irish Pub. This is about how a bar just a little bigger than the Blarney Stone manages to function as a pub while also hosting bands, darts contests, and football-watching parties ranging from Austin FC to FIFA World Cup matches. They squeeze all that fun in somehow, just get there early. Kelly’s happy hour extends from 2pm-6pm and they close at midnight.
