Well, maybe with a winning Powerball or Mega-Millions ticket, but getting this particular guitar is a close second. Props to your Tech, who deserves the capital "T".Ĥ. Better job than any from a factory or other dealer that I've seen.ģ. Wonderful job on the packing: very tight and secure. The guitar shipment arrived as scheduled.

They sit in a cosy part of the pub called the snug, and above their heads, Guinness memorabilia lines the walls. Late on Thursdays, Irish musicians take over. However, if you want the atmosphere - and beers - of a pub, then The Colonel Fawcett is a good shout, offering both traditional Irish songs and more poppy offerings, every Thursday night.ġ Randolph Street, NW1 0SS Photo: Blythe Hill Tavern Blythe Hill TavernĬAMRA award winning Blythe Hill Tavern is beloved by its Forest Hill locals. The spot-on ambience is furthered on Tuesday nights when Wraggle Taggle - led by Mick O'Connor - play out traditional Irish folk songs.Ī post shared by The Colonel Fawcett on at 10:10am PDTĬamden rounds out the trio of north London's Irish locales, and if you want Irish music without the pub setting, then the nearby London Irish Centre is a must. Among them is The Lamb, where pints are enjoyed in beautiful mood lighting. However, the Highbury end of the road has a conclave of buzzy pubs that are well worth visiting. Holloway Road is another classic Irish London haunt, which isn't quite as green as in days gone by. Tooting is officially one of the coolest places on earth, so where better to listen to the bouzouki, pipes and banjo?

So it's no surprise that they offer traditional Irish music, alongside ( supposedly) the best pints of Guinness in England. The Auld Shillelagh in Stoke Newington once won the Irish Times' best Irish pub in the world (outside of Ireland) award.
