Green Sleeves is another great pub with good food. The people will be out of their teens and sometimes a professional crowd.
On the weekends there is generally always great live music and a good place to hang out with friends.
Enjoy your visit!!!

Throughout the summer there will often be festivals, so check for local listings. The George Street Festival is arguable the best one and there is lots of live music outdoors on the stage!
The street and pubs are alive at this time!!

Easily St Johns most well known and popular music bar, O Reillys lies at the centre of George Street and attracts a big crowd regularly.The live music seems to be never ending and if youre here for a few nights, youre sure to hear many of Newfoundlands best musicians, old or young.
I highly recommend this bar, although if you dont like folk or acoustic music or celtic music in general be warned in advance.
I heard Larry foley here first night , excellent!
Dress Code: Casual is ok.

One of a string of Irish bars located on the famous George street..and well worth trying out the menu. Ive been here a few times and I would recommend it for sure.
A decent range of tap beers also and a good venue for live music , mostly Irish or folk.

Nice little pub run by Ralph, an Irish Musician based in NFLD for many years.
There is live folk music regularly in this pub, with a nice folky ambiance and friendly atmosphere. There was live music every night I was here in May 2008.
Well worth a visit before attacking George Street.
Dress Code: Irish pub, so casual.

O'Reilly's has to be one of my personal favorite spots on George Street. It's now moved up the road on George Street where Benders on George used to be.
The old O'Reilly's is now called the Dock.
It looks like its the same set up as the old O'Reilly's. In the meantime I havn't gone in there in the night time yet for a pint so I am not sure much else about the place yet. If anyone got some stuff to share please let me know.
In the winter of 2008 I visited there again on a Tuesday night for Open Mic Night and it was really busy, lots of people and as expected an all round good time.

Benders on George is generally always a fun place to visit on a Friday or Saturday night.
Well not anymore. Benders on George is now O'Reilly's Pub.
O'Reillys has to be one of my personal favorite spots on George Street. If you like Irish live music and a great crowd this is probably the best spot in Newfoundland and Labrador.
There is generally always live music on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Tuesdays they have open mic which is a laugh. There are a lot of close ties with Ireland and this makes this a number 1 spot!
Be sure to rate my tips and leave your comments, I love them all!!!!

The Last Drop is a pub which is located along Water Street. This pub has a very friendly atmosphere and is worth visiting at night. Mr Harj (VT member hsm) and I have a good time drinking and chatting here during my visit in November 2005.

The many nightclubs, pubs and restaurants along George Street is well know. This street is conveniently located at the central area of the city and it comes to life at night where other parts of the city become very quiet. Do check this place out but be careful.
