Flaherty's is one of a chain of Irish pubs in Spain, so it does have a slightly plastic feel - though not as bad as some. The pub itself is large, comfortable, friendly, popular and serves a wide variety of beers, whiskeys and of course, Guiness. In addition it has an excellent pub menu, and food is available from 10am until midnight. Pl. Joaquim Xirau is just off the Ramblas, so it's in a great location and provides a pleasant sunny Plaça in which to enjoy a smooth cold pint of the black stuff. Happy hour is 6pm-8pm daily, when a bottle of the local Estrella is only €1, but be prepared to pay typical tourist pub prices the rest of the time. It boasts two TVs and a projector screen, which are perfect for watching all the usual sporting events. During the day the the music is 80's to modern day pop, whilst in the evenings there is generally a move towards traditional and contemporary Irish live music. In summary then, Flaherty's is the typical Irish pub abroad, but it's very well done and well worth a visit to remind yourself of that quintessential pub experience.
