Too much soccer & tourists. But regular Expats make this place their Home Away From Home, in the noble Tradition of the Late Great Irish Arms.
FUN FACT: The other so-called Irish Bars are totally fake & this is the only place in Krakow that sources its Guinness from Ireland.
The others are either Polish or Ukrainian, and even English FFS!!!
Correction: They DO NOT allow vodka tasting tours on their premises.
Live music is great! Lots of talented people play here with no cover charge.
Location is brilliant.
Shuts down around 11pm because of shitty neighbors.
Excellent toilets and huge main room where musicians play.
Staff is wonderful, helpful and fluent in English.
Good place for 1 drink, or many.
Excellent in the weekday afternoons & Amazing at the weekends if you like European Football & other sports.

Surrounded by other places in the old Jewish Quarter of Kazimierz.
St. Patrick's Day is...

Duffy's pub is a little gem a bit off the beaten track. I absolutely love it and I intend to keep...
Read moreMe and my boyfriend stayed local to the pub during our trip to Krakow, we went into Duffy’s the first night we stayed and met one of the owners Dave, he was so lovely and made us feel so welcome. We came back the next night for St. Patrick’s Day and it was fantastic!!! Everyone in there was so accommodating and introduced us to all the regulars, and the other owner Fergie we chatted all night to everyone and enjoyed every minute. The bar staff are amazing and worked so hard on a very busy night, their English was great and again, lovely to chat to. Both owners did everything they could to make ours and everyone’s night one to remember ! It was so lovely to visit and authentic Irish pub and we will definitely be returning when we next...
