What Is Traditional Irish Pub Food?

Irish Pub for Irish Pub Recipes

Rick Steves, long known for his travel advice, put together a list of foods you can expect to find in an Irish Pub.

And just in case you’re wondering what traditional Irish pubs are all about, he says,

“Pubs are a basic part of the Irish social scene, and whether you’re a teetotaler or a beer-guzzler, they should be a part of your travel here. Whether in rural villages or busy Dublin, a pub (short for “public house”) is an extended living room where… you can feel the pulse of Ireland.”

Pub menus consist of a hearty assortment of traditional dishes, such as…

  • Irish stew (mutton with mashed potatoes, onions, carrots, and herbs)
  • Soups and chowders
  • Coddle (bacon, pork sausages, potatoes, and onions stewed in layers)
  • Fish-and-chips
  • Collar and cabbage (boiled bacon coated in bread crumbs and brown sugar, then baked and served with cabbage)
  • Boxty (potato pancake filled with fish, meat, or vegetables)
  • Champ (potato mashed with milk and onions)
  • Soda Bread

  1. Looking for a Pub menu, but instead got an illustrated book (nice, informative) but no menu. And a flood of ads making seeing the page next to impossible.
