I've been coming to O'shea's for just over 10 years as a massive celtic fan the atmosphere was amazing. Since rangers have been in the spl this season the atmosphere has cut by half. and when I watched the celtic v city it just wasn't the same anymore. Plus there was a terrible reception and the screen was constantly freezing. Which spoilt my night. So I'm saddened to say that I won't be watching any more celtic games in here anymore which is ashame because I've had many wonderful nights and Sunday days in here watching the old firm and champions league matches. The food is however excellent and the Guinness is lovely. So I may come in some time for that. But I love O'shea's... Im sad to say goodbye. If however O'shea's can get all the sky sports and all bt sport channels then I will be back. Because after last night I'm sure I'm not the only one who was left really disappointed with the interference...
ย ย ย Read moreI ate here with a friend pre Zakk Wylde concert at the o2. First time back in Manchester since graduating the uni in 1998. I chose the Dirty Old Town burger. Food delivered quickly. The chips were good.
The 'burger' should really have an asterisk next to it. Definitely the worst burger I have tasted in the UK. I think if the chef can't make burgers, they would do better going to Tescos and buying cheap supermarket own brand ones.
The most accurate description I can think of is they bought too many burgers from Iceland in 1993. They were left out in the Mancunian sunshine for a few months where they slowly fossilised, before being found last year in a locked cupboard. They would be better off donating them to the uni for further analysis.
Staff not as friendly as one would expect in an Irish bar, not much craic to be seen....
ย ย ย Read moreO'Sheas has had a revamp! New toilets etc. Live music phenomenal as well as the live sport with numerous screens. Full time Chef now with what are probably the best burgers in town! Great selection of Irish and Manchester Gins served perfectly! Highly recommend a visit!
"Wee Little Bit of History - O'Sheas Irish BaRepublic first opened its doors to the people in Manchester in 1994 with then Ireland Manager Jack Charlton pouring the first pint of Guinness. SInce then over 2 million pints of Guinness have followed. The building where we proudly stand was built in 1905 as a packing and shipping warehouse in the middle of a predominantly Irish area between Little Ireland and St Austin."
And now totally refurbished in January /...
