Irish Delight

Must Read

For those who want to experience Ireland in India, there is The Irish House in Andheri, Mumbai, offering the best draught beers, and inviting patrons to experience the ‘art of the pour‘, pound whisky, and enjoy delectable Irish Fish and Chips

Interiors

The ambience captures the spirit of a traditional Irish pub in Old Ireland with its rustic wooden elements and a subtle pop of colour emerging from the green ceiling. Constructed from an old gaming zone, the pub offers a boisterous setting, with loads of charm, and loads of brews. Almost every inch of the 2,250 sqft space is decorated with Irish bric-a-bracs and salvaged materials that form the high wooden roof, wooden flooring, and exposed brick walls.

Famous quotes and quirky messages are plastered across the space, along with typical drink memorabilia steeped with Irish flavour. Sample this: ‘Give me a woman who loves beer and I will conquer the world’. T-shirts worn by the staff have cheeky lines that say: ‘Free beer tomorrow’.

Lighting

French windows allow natural light to seep in, while low lighting and intimate sub-spaces create cozy zones. Intelligent use of ambient lighting lends an almost sepia, Old World feel. Track lights provide dramatic and enhanced lighting at significant corners, and help draw attention to the artwork and architectural design.

Entertainment

“Andheri with its active nightlife and a large corporate presence is a perfect setting for Irish House. But it was a huge challenge to set it up as this place was once an old gaming zone, and had to be converted into a pub. Moreover, the height of this outlet is uneven as there is a movie theatre on top. But we managed to blend in the industrial look into the design in order to retain the original structure,” says Varun Kapur, Director, Irish House.

With six plasma screens and one projector screen, Irish House is also a good place to catch some sporting action. 5pm to 8pm make for happy hours, as do live gigs, comedy nights, karoake, quizzes and beer games. The music, which is primarily rock during the day, changes to  some house and commercial music after 10 pm.

Seating Dynamics

There are multiple seating options: apart from community tables, which are very popular with large groups, bar stools run along the walls, while a slim ledge holds the drinks. There are two elevated sections and booths for a more private enjoyment. On Saturday evenings, crowds pour onto the wooden decks for a pint of beer and more.

Food Facts

The pub-grub menu includes burgers, pizzas, pastas and sandwiches. For those looking for a taste of Ireland, there is the signature Irish Fish & Chips, besides Lions Chicken Tenders, Beer Can Chicken, tacos, fries and Chicken Cordon Bleu. The chef’s version of the pub classic – Steak ‘n Kidney Pie – is a new favorite on the menu – probably the only place in Mumbai to serve the meaty dish. The Dark & White Irish Chocolate Kahlua Mousse is a delicious way to end a meal. True to its name, Irish House serves 30 varieties of beer in kegs and towers. A must-try is the Irish Car Bomb – a shot made with Murphys dry stout, Jameson and Baileys.
