What a pleasant surprise it was for me to be introduced to Tir Na Nog. A clean, decent, well run, friendly, non life threatening fun just to be at bar in Daytona Beach?!? I was totally taken back by the fact, particularly since it is located just down the street from the seedy, infamous, dive-y Shark Lounge. It's basically a beer bar, but more than that, an actual honest to goodness Irish beer bar with an unusually large, varied and well thought out selection of imported, domestic as well as custom crafter brews, some of which are available on tap. It also has a unique, laid back, ambiance with a typical Irish pub décor of heavy dark wood, giving it the true flavor of a real pub; which it is. Better yet, on certain evenings live entertainment is offered, however, it is the overall friendliness of the owner and staff that add to the magic as well as the enjoyment of the place. read more

Went here this past Friday at the advice of a friend. Well let me tell you. First of all this place looks super run down on the outside and the inside is even worse. There is some kind of parking in front or on the side street. The bartender was friendly and accommodating to our group of 6, catering to our different drinking needs. The inside feels muggy like the air wasn't working, the roof was missing tiles and looked like it had water damage. The chairs are all in dire need of repair. This is your real Irish spot I suppose and most of the people there seemed to be regulars. I don't see tourist wandering in there let alone staying. This place has potential and I honestly kept thinking to myself they should contact "Bar Rescue" Definitely not in a rush to go back here... read more

Great low-key bar right on ISB by the beach. Dark inside and unassuming, and friendly, just the way a bar should be. Lots of different beers and sometimes they've got some pretty good live music too. Cheryl the bartender and everyone there is always super nice and chill. No attitudes, cool place to hang out and have a beer. read more

It's a hole-in-the-wall bar just a few streets over from the majority of the bars/clubs in the area. They have live music and a great beer selection. They also have wine, but do not have a liquor license. It's dark inside with a large bar to sit at, as well as a few tables and a bench along the wall. There are pool tables and darts if you want to do something other than sit. The bartender was very nice and helpful. I bothered him with sampling a bunch of different beers on tap, which he didn't mind at all. I ended up making my own concoction after not being able to decide, of Left Hand Milk Stout and Shock Top's Twisted Pretzel. It was delicious and the bartender was happy to do it for me. I would recommend this place if you like beer, live music and a casual atmosphere. read more

Johnny. Any night your here is a five star night. If you're lucky and get Johnny as a bartender. Your are in for a 6 star plus time. Great Conversation great music and great times. In addition the people that hang out here might be the coolest people in Daytona Beach. Done miss a great Irish pub. read more

Tir Na Nog - a man sitting at a bar - Pubs Near Me - Daytona Beach, Florida

Forget all the woe's that you've experienced since coming to Daytona and belly up to Tir Na Nog's fascinating blend of Irish Pub, Shit-hole Dive and pool hall. This is by far the best bar in Daytona, maybe all of Florida. They're local, they serve some serious beers and ciders and the clientele is decidedly un-NASCAR. I don't know if they still do, but a while back they had Hobgoblin English Ale on tap. I have been to all 50 states and countless pubs and bars and have NEVER seen Hobgoblin on tap. It's never a dull moment in here either. Even if the place is completely dead you're going to hear some funny conversation from the barten-deers and the juke box is always pumping something interesting. If you're interested in some sort of douchey frat fest then avoid this place, but if you're looking for a comfortable setting to relax and sip a serious beer Tir Na Nog is your place. read more

We come to Daytona Beach only one week a year, and this spot is a must-go every year. Old Rasputin on tap, darts, and the best eclectic music played on crisp, perfect speakers--heaven for us! The bartender is chill and friendly, and the locals are a hoot. Bring some darts and have a good beer. Cheers! read more

I think we must have went to the wrong place. The bar we strolled into was dark and musty with loud heavy metal playing. Looks like a spot for regulars because none seemed very welcoming. We stayed for maybe 5 minutes and left to find another bar. I just didn't feel comfortable. I guess I was expecting something different because of the reviews read more

A refreshing change from the shots-and-techno scene that is most Daytona night life. This Irish pub is located in a slightly seedy section of the beachside, but once inside you'll find the place to be nicely decorated, clean and with a great staff. They have an excellent selection of imported beers as well as good domestic craft brews (Dogfish Head, Unibroue, Rogue, some Belgians...) Oh, and the prices are unbelievable. I felt like I was stealing, paying $3.50 for a Dogfish Head 60. Live music most weekends by great local bands, excellent sound system that fills the bar. NO SMOKING INSIDE, but you can go out back onto the small patio if that's your thing. Pool, darts, pinball machine. This place has it all. read more

Beer and wine only, for sophisticated and non-sophisticated tastes. $0.50 pabst drafts and music on Thursdays.

One of my favorite places to hit in Daytona. You most commonly will be served by the owner of the bar, Randy a very nice and relaxed guy. People inside are always down for a conversation. The prices are more than reasonable, especially on Thursday night when they serve 50 cent PBR. There is a great selection of craft and micro brews on tap and in the bottle. Usually good music fills the bar. Theres a pool table. Local art on the wall for sale. I usually go in at least once a week. read more

Place is a dive but that's why I love it! It has such great character. I miss hangin with my crew there or just popping in and there would always be someone I knew. read more

Quality Bar with lots of great beers on tap and a fun friendly staff, live music takes the place of the jukebox from time to time. The back patio is usually full of a wide spectrum of people where interesting conversations will break out and last all night. I am a regular at this bar and if you grew up in Daytona I bet you were once too. read more

Fun place, great people. Our Rugby bar, our home!

We've been going to Bike Week for over 10 years and Tir Ne Nog is always one of our stop on Friday night before heading to Main St. If you can't fun here it's your own damn fault! read more

Should have gone to mcks tavern. I like dive bars but warm beer at a high price. Was not good.

Not your typical Daytona Beach Bar. Great craft brews, live music (on certain nights) and the staff are good people. Located in a somewhat seedy section of Daytona as another reviewer put it but not so much it should deter you. Again excellent beer selection at great prices. If your into good brews and not just domestic junk don't pass this place up. read more
