    Lively Saturday night.

    Super fun way to spend our first night in Barcelona! Irish Pub that was super fun and packed! Beautiful space, friendly staff and full bar. We had a blast! Bonus - they are open late night. Made our second stop after seeing a Barca futbol game. Fun!

    Went to Barcelona after graduating college and hit this pub with some friends. Great place to meet younger people who are looking to have fun. The inside is beautiful and has numerous TVs throughout both floors, features a dart board, and plenty of seating. The staff is super friendly as well. Must order the Barcelona blackout!! Went on a Monday night and a Thursday night during my week in Barcelona and both nights were live with people!

    Came here to watch a soccer game. Tip: if you want good seats, come at least an hour before your scheduled game. We got prime seats and glad we did because once the game started, there were many people standing. Below the TV is a piece of white paper that tells you what games will be viewed on that particular TV. Food wise - disappointed. I ordered "Dana's combo platter" which consisted of: Mozzarella sticks- probably the only good thing in this platter Onion rings - tasted as it was sitting out for hours. Hard and stale Chicken fingers - came out hot. Not much taste though. Buffalo wings - cold Irish pork - unless they are the sausages in gravy, then it failed to make it on our plate Sausages in gravy - straight out of a can. Not good. Fries - cold, old and stale The dips: bleu cheese which doesn't really taste like bleu cheese. Salsa - to go with the old stale chips And BBQ sauce. Don't order this!!

    George Payne gets a bit of a bad rap. It's not a dirty, cheap Irish pub (Ryan's). It's not Spanish (Everywhere else). It's a place where I can watch a match and not worry about working on my Castellano. It's a place I can get nachos that taste like nachos and chili that has some kick to it. I've seen it packed on game nights, but the crowds tend to be reasonably pleasant and quite varied English speaking ex-pats. Other times they have pretty good specials (a 2-for menu before 3PM) and lots of seating. Those who are there in the off hours are chatty. Maybe too chatty. One guy spent the better half of my lunch telling my date how he just broke up with an annoying American who had a Pomeranian. The only bad part of George Payne is that EVERYONE goes there. Perhaps that's why my friends normally pish-posh it. They don't want to be found.

    I was at George Payne yesterday. It is a very nice pub, full of students and there is a really funny karaoke!

    Awful. Bartender stole 10 euros from me and demanded that I pay again. Place is a scam! Tourists beware!
