More Irish than the Irish themselves: Pubs up for top award

Don’t get too ansty if the bartenders at the Tír na nÓg pub in Aarhus, Denmark, appear to take their time answering the phone.

“Call the pub. If the music is not too loud, we will answer,” is the promise from the owners of what is regarded as the best pub in Denmark.

It could well be one of the best in Ireland, as given the native decor, including a green and cream phonebox, it wouldn’t look out of place in any Irish town.
