All of this as a result of time and tradition.  Uniquely situated on the outskirts of Kinsale, looking across the harbour to the town and next to Charles Fort, the Bulman Bar is a mere 10 meters from the Atlantic Ocean, in the scenic village of Summercove. Whether you drop in for a drink, or a bite to eat, a welcoming log fire greets you. Kinsale

The bar is fairly small with most of the tables for 2-4 people so it's probably not well suited for big groups.

There's a selection of 6 beers on tap, plus bottles, liquor and even a few wine choices. What more could you want?

What a neat pub! Talk about stepping back into yesteryear. 1690 to be exact!…read more We stopped in for our very first pint of Guinness in Ireland right after our walking tour of Kinsale. We were the first folks of the day and the bar staff were just setting up but welcomed us in anyway and gave us loads of interesting information about the pub itself and it's history. The ancient floors are truly wonky and they say 'if they ever straighten out, then you should stop drinking, you've reached your limit.' :P We learned how the 'snug' was originally used for the women to sneak in and enjoy a tipple without anyone knowing they were doing so. The 'snug' is still in place although no longer used as such. The rooms are all very small but feel cozy rather than tight and they seem as if they would be the perfect place for a group of friends to enjoy themselves either on holiday or just after work. The atmosphere was terrific when it was empty, so I can only imagine what it's like at full steam. The pub actually joins with the building on the corner and both are owned by the same folks. They do a great job of preserving the history of this fine establishment and we really appreciate them doing so - not to mention it was one fine pint of Guinness they poured.

On Saturday night we were there while one was playing and another was setting up. We were there during the jazz festival so we were unable unfortunately to eat, so I will have to wait until next time to try the fish and chips. The bar always has snacks for sale. I just love pubs because there's never any pressure to purchase more or as soon as your drink is empty a server coming right up to you asking if you wanted another. We really enjoyed ending our night here with live music and the fun atmosphere and just ordering a drink and a soda. If you are lucky enough to get a seat, grab one and if they aren't just find a place to stand and enjoy the environment. Super friendly staff and very clean restrooms

This was easily the best of the four fish&chips we've tried so far in Ireland. Outstanding actually. The batter had the most perfect crunchy texture, wasn't too thick, and it adhered well. The fish was just-off-the-boat fresh, flaky and cooked just right. The portion was enormous - two fillets, one large and one medium, with a relatively small portion of good fries. The tartar sauce was tangy with tiny chopped pickles. Vinegar was available at the table. This was served with a small salad of lettuces, spinach, scallions, and onions. Price was surprisingly low given the portion, right around average for fish&chips in our experience so far. We ordered the entree salad with the locally made goat cheese add-on for a small extra charge. More excellent leafy greens, beets in small cubes, pomegranate seeds, picked onions, candied nuts and plenty of chèvre in large pieces. It was pre-dressed with vinaigrette and drizzled with balsamic vinegar. Very good, a far better choice for us than two orders of fried fish. Also on the menu were 3 other kinds of fish (monkfish, black sole, and plaice), each prepared differently. Shrimp scampi, seafood au gratin, and steamed mussels rounded out the seafood section. Oysters are on the menu but they weren't available that day. Other than seafood there were also burgers (beef and veggie), chicken wings, soup of the day, chowder, a steak, lasagna, pan roasted duck breast, cannelloni, liver paté, spring roll, and more. So a very extensive menu here, and not just the same things found everywhere. Sadly we didn't have room to try their desserts, which included sticky toffee pudding, banoffi pie, flourless chocolate cake, and meringue pie with raspberries and ice cream. They were hard to pass up.
