| Hidden in the lobby of Holiday Inn Bloomsbury, Callaghan's does surprisingly well at offering genuine Irish hospitality. True to the traditions of those friendly folk from the Emerald Isle, they serve up smooth Guinness and tasty Irish cuisine both seasoned by a nice helping of Irish music. They are staunchly, and quite rightly, proud of their Irish stew. It’s also worth sampling their fresh seafood and mouth-watering grills too. Come St Patrick's Day, you can wave, whistle and whoop at the parade, throw your Guinness hat in the air while doing an Irish jig and then retreat into the cavernous depths of this very authentic Irish restaurant for the afternoon and on into the evening. It may be a little chaotic but that’s all part of the merry Irish fun. |
