More Than Just a Pint – It’s Where Your Killarney Adventure Begins!
Step inside O’Connor’s Pub on High Street, Killarney, and you step right into a piece of local history. We know it fondly as Teddy’s, and this traditional Irish pub isn’t just celebrating 100 years of warm welcomes; it’s the heart and soul of our Gap of Dunloe Tours experience.
For over a century, the O’Connor family has been a valued part of the Killarney community, and Teddy’s stands proudly as part of that legacy. For us at Gap of Dunloe Tours, it’s more than just a fantastic pub, it’s our official home base and the starting point for your incredible journey through the Gap of Dunloe and the lakes of Killarney. Forget any logistical worries, your adventure truly begins the moment you walk in. Our tour office is conveniently located right at the back, making it the ideal spot to gather yourself before heading out, or to relax and share stories upon your return.
But the magic of Teddy’s goes beyond its convenience for our tours. You feel it in the atmosphere. On many evenings, the pub buzzes with the sound of live traditional Irish music. These aren’t stiff performances; they’re wonderfully relaxed sessions where talented local musicians share their love for the music. Visitors are always welcome to simply sit back and soak it all in, or even tap along. It’s that authentic Irish pub feeling we know you’re looking for in Killarney.
And you simply must try one of the legendary Irish coffees! The balance, that lovely warmth of smooth whiskey, rich coffee, and fresh cream makes it the perfect treat after a day exploring the rugged beauty of the Gap with us. If you’re feeling peckish, their simple, delicious toasties are just the job.
O’Connor’s is a true cornerstone of Killarney life. It’s a favourite meeting spot for locals and the welcoming hub for our tour guests embarking on their Gap of Dunloe adventure. It’s genuine, friendly, and full of proper Irish charm.
So, when you’re next in Killarney, please do pop into Teddy’s. Raise a glass to its hundred years, enjoy the music, and say hello. And when you book your unforgettable Gap of Dunloe Tour with us, remember – your journey starts right here, in the heart of Killarney, at O’Connor’s Pub.
