The "Irish" as people refer to it is a bit of an institution in my mind. Whereas other bars and clubs have gone, The Irish has always been there. Every teenage growing up in Gisborne has been here at one time or another, drinking and dancing with their friends (myself included. In fact, loads of my friends have been waters/watresses behind the bar!)
The Irish has many guises. It also has a function room which can be hired out, as well as being a pub, and a club and live music venue.
It is frequented more by the younger set on a friday and saturday night, but it's a great venue for all the rest of the time.
There is also a garden bar with BBQ's
Dress Code: No big resttrictions, but guys you won't get in with jandals/flip flops/thongs on.
