Costello's (Limerick)

Description: Dominic Street, Limerick.

Newest Review: ... back to the pub itself. It is a nice old style pub with various random pieces on the walls, like road signs, old Irish phrases and old adverts for the likes of Woodbine and Players cigarettes, and of course the obligatory picture, photos and other memorabilia from various horse racing events (although the horse stuff is genuine as the guy who runs the place is big into his horse racing) The ... more

... pub itself is, not to put too fine a point on it, a dive. The pints of larger are terrible and the cider is no better. And I wouldn't trust the "food" as far as I could throw the pub. But what it does have is a great atmosphere on a nig...more

Costello's is a pub in limerick which as a student I, like thousands of other students, used to spend my weekends, and some of my week day evenings...ok all of my weekday evenings, I admit it. Anyway, back to the pub itself. It is a nice old style pub with various random pieces on the walls, like road signs, old Irish phrases and old adverts for the likes of Woodbine and Players cigarettes, and of course the obligatory picture, photos and other memorabilia from various horse racing events (although the horse stuff is genuine as the guy who runs the place is big into his horse racing) The pub itself is, not to put too fine a point on it, a dive.

The above review was clearly written by a moron I see he mentions the ol' "Private Function" problem, which as everybody with half a brain & decent taste in music in Limerick knows is based on a tatty old poster Flan has had stuck to the door for the last decade which he points to as an excuse not to let in pissed assholes in Ben Sherman shirts who have taken a wrong turn on their way to the nearest kebabbery. Costelloes has indeed been a Limerick Art College staple for nearly 20 years, but that's mostly midweek. On Friday and Saturday nights the clientele range in age from early 20s to late 30s...

Costellos is a pub/restaurant/night-club located on Dominic street in Limerick city. Its in between o’Connel street and the railway station. The place is a reasonable size. 2 floors, The bottom being the pub and upstairs being the club. Costellos is not one of those places where you would be looking to end up in at the start of the night. The reason you usually end up there is outside of your control. If you get refused in the other better nightclubs in the town or are just too drunk this is the place to go.
