Kyteler's Inn is an excellent example of a medieval tavern and dates back to 1324. The pub takes its name from a local Kilkenny woman, Dame Alice Kyteler, who married four times and was convicted of practicing witchcraft in the same year. Tastefully restored, the pub's traditional interior with timber floors, wooden tables and an open fire makes for an excellent atmosphere. The Irish stew comes highly recommended.

Billy Byrnes has got a beautiful beer garden seating where smoking is allowed and there's a fireplace.

Located across the road from the Kilkenny Cineplex, Brennan's is an ideal for a drink before or after a movie. It runs over two floors, and has a cosy slightly warren-like atmosphere. There is a nice pool room, regular live music and a fireplace to sit near on winter evenings. In the summer, visitors can enjoy the sun on tables out the back. There's no food served here, but Brennan's is a quality, unpretentious family pub nonetheless.
Byrne's bar has a shady and spacious beer garden for those sunny days when you just want to sit and sip pints. You can even partake of a full Irish breakfast while you are at it, available here on an all-day basis. Byrne's also boasts a good lunch menu with fish, lasagne and lamb dishes available at very reasonable prices. There's even a pool table inside if you get bored of sitting in the sun after your breakfast. Don't leave without taking a look at the utterly charming picture of "Ginger" with his owner Denis Hyland on the wall inside. "Ginger" is a fighting cock and in the photo he's standing on the bar, with his head stuck in a pint of stout. On Saturday nights the hordes are entertained by a DJ.
