A fireplace keeps the insides of the pub warm and cozy, while illuminating and adding to the beauty of the wooden interiors. The seating arrangement is generously done, which makes Two Fools a class a apart from the usual dingy and cluttered pubs.

Needless to say, the pub stacks up on a variety of Irish stouts, beers and intoxications which complement the delicious food.
