Celtic Druid Irish Pub — Restaurant in Bologna

I had a really nice experience here. Talking as a tourist, watching a live football match, as an AWAY side. Sounds disrespectful to the host? . Well its an Irish Bar, in the center of Bologna.

Overall, then, worth a visit if you're after an irish / UK feel to a pub, but also if you fancy some craft beers. Does both reasonably well, which...
