The Shamrock Ipswich in Ipswich

True Irish pub and yes they do the best Guinness in town which I happily consume most days very friendly and efficient staff love my beaten up old Chair straight out of father Ted! Lots of gigs and music going on but poorly advertised overall my favourite pub in Ipswich!!!

Wonderful staff. They've got some 😇 Angels on duty there, I bet you.

Cracking place great atmosphere staff a1 glasses washed n polished entertainment great can't fault the place we're from Manchester and enjoyed our stay Gus is a star you will love him x

We called into this not very Irish pub for a drink after dinner. My partner had an awful pint of Guinness and my wine was every bit as bad. We decided to cut our losses and left most of our drinks in the glasses and left.

A massive thank you to the staff who looked after us all during the Ipswich Town FC promotion game on the big screens. They worked tirelessly & we’re totally unfazed by the raucous crowd, laughing and joking through out. You guys made it a special occasion for us all!! Well done.

Nice place to have a drink at night, they also had a live ban. Got so close, I thought I was apart of their music. Would definitely come back. Did not have the food, so 1 star as I cannot give N/A.

super welcoming and somehow always open when you want it to be! 😎

Nice Irish bar in the town centre. Friendly staff, great atmosphere, shows the Rugby and other lesser sports

Gerri the bartender pours a mean half pibt

Absolutely nothing irish about this place, neither the welcome nor the music nor the atmosphere.

Great bar for the craic, best Guinness around, don't miss

Ein Schönes Pub , so wie es sein sollte . Alle Freundlich und die Atmosphäre ist gut . Live Musik gab's obendrein . Gegessen habe ich nichts

Great place for a beer or two🍺😁. Very friendly staff, good service.

Good pub in the centre of town. The staff were friendly and on the ball. Comfortable atmosphere and because of the wonderful seating at the bar a great place for a beer and a little chat. If you want the barmaids full attention bring a puppy with you 🙂🐕

Gus is a really decent man,fair,kind and great to be around,his service is amazing and a really nice person to he around⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My new favourite place, Gus and the staff are always chatting to customers and listening. Always a great atmosphere any walk of life can go in and it's basically for everyone and anyone. Met some good people in the shamrock recently and every time I go there I don't wanna leave haha

Great friendly staff,watched the Tennis with Gus .

Wicked place. Best guiness in ipswich.

Open Mike was brilliant lots of great talent

Great beer, great pub. Great place in town to go for a few beers. Always a welcoming place

Lovely staff, good environment. A bit of a musky smell on our visit. ?!? Really nice time though 😁

The tall Irish man who works here is rude, obnoxious and abusive - avoid, avoid, avoid

Owner is rude and disrespectful

Great host, on elegant surroundings plus intellecty stimulating conversation. A memorable night, Thank you!! Mrs I S K

Anytime I go there it's full of happy people enjoying themselves, including the staff. It's sweeeet!

A nice evening, band was playing and great; but loud!

The Shamrock is the ultimate Irish pub experience! From the moment you walk in, you're surrounded by a warm and inviting atmosphere that transports you straight to Dublin. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, always willing to make recommendations and engage in friendly banter. Of course, the real star of the show is the Guinness - it's simply the best you'll find anywhere. Served with the perfect creamy head, it's clear that the staff takes pride in pouring the perfect pint. And the best part? The prices are incredibly reasonable, making The Shamrock a great spot for a casual night out with friends or a cozy date night. Overall, The Shamrock is a must-visit for anyone looking for an authentic Irish pub experience. Five stars all around!

Had a good time, lovely music 🎶 🎵 too. Very chilled place. Drinks are reasonable and we met some lovely people there

Brilliant staff and wonderful atmosphere to have a pint in!

Great pub, watched some football with a couple of Beers.

Very friendly and cosy pub in the centre of town. Great variety of drinks. Great staff.

New management. Always was great Irish themed pub but getting even better as they asked me about what ales I think would go down well. The guys are intending to stock a better selection of ales and bitters than the previous total of ONE. Being Maltsmith I.P.A.

A lovely little pub with a large range of beers, great friendly staff and atmosphere, with a lovely small courtyard garden area. I would recommend a visit.

Good food excellent food and atmosphere.

Always a friendly reception and a proper pub. Love the little beer garden.

Nice enough pub , the monthly blues jam is always fun .

Always a good pint of Guiness and nice atmosphere, feels like a proper Irish bar

Worst pub ever. Stuffs are very rude .

Proper old shool bar . To be sure. .. so

Traditional Irish pub in Ipswich? THE SHAMROCK! This pub has it all! Bar staff are lovely welcoming and informative. The beer is always at its finest & the Guinness is the best in all of Ipswich! They often have live bands on and always seem to pick good ones! If you want a real pub with top quality drinks and superb entertainment you will find no better than The Shamrock.

Brilliant pub great service and great atmosphere with toby tick tack as the caberet 😂👍

Love the place, with great people 😎

Great place, great atmosphere, great music 👍👍

Nice friendly pub with friendly bar staff with some great live music on some Friday and Saturday nights. Drinks are a little more expensive than other venues near by.

Great night , would highly recommend it, beer was good , staff really friendly, owners gave a very warm welcome and very helpful

I've had a fantastic time at the Shamrock tonight.. It was my Brother In Laws birthday party.. The food they laid on was excellent 😋 The pub has a very nice atmosphere

Had a great St Patrick's night with a great live band well recommended

Brilliant pub. Excellent beer and friendly staff and patrons. They even supplied free Irish stew!

We were lucky enough to stumble across the Shamrock pub last Saturday as 7 of us where up in Ipswich for the Ipswich v Portsmouth game (Portsmouth fans). We visited the pub for a few drinks before kick off, and it was amazingly priced and the service was very speedy. After the game we went back and watched the England v Ireland rugby. The pub was full of great characters, the staff were amazing, so friendly. They even gave away free help yourself Irish stew which was hugely appreciated. My friend had his 7 year old son with him, and they gave him a lollipop and all spoke with him. Really made us feel welcome. I will certainly be visiting the Shamrock again and want to say thank you to the landlord, staff and the other customers for being so warm, welcoming and friendly. I hope the pub continues to thrive and I look forward to visiting again soon. Thank you again!

Great friendly Irish pub. Great Guinness, friendly staff and live music. Definitely recommend

Good Guinness. Nice atmosphere.

Nice pub the night we went had a guy singing which was ok lots of character inside staff wer friendly

Excellent service friendly staff couldn't fault the shamrock in any way

You cannot help but love this place, ideally situated in the town centre of town with friendly staff and good selection of drinks. Asked if they do food but they don't, staff were so accommodating though and said if we got takeaway we were welcome to eat it there. Irish music on in the background, nicely decorated and friendly clientele. Deserves to do well.

Friendly pub, good drinks, reasonably priced.

Good place now they have changed the door staff

A friendly welcome from the staff and a good atmosphere

Excellent pub great atmosphere and staff Gez

A traditional Irish pub, lovely decor and soft Irish music playing in the background.

Got some life to it . Nice place .

Good bar need to keep cleaner glasses

Nice pub, and also has a wee enclosed, outside area at the rear.

Lively Irish themed bar in town centre. Wet bar only. Live music and a good little outdoor area outback

Good pint of Guinness and friendly atmosphere

The Shamrock is a proper pub, so friendly and comfortable. The drinks are well kept and at decent prices, Tony and Teresa certainly know how to make you welcome.

Nice little place. The Irish music nearly drove me nuts buts that's my own fault for going to an Irish bar. Service was good, prices were more than reasonable.

Excellent pub - very friendly and great Guinness!!

Really nice pub. Lovely friendly staff

Really good place to go a drink and watch the football or rugby. Really good atmosphere.

Great pub. Fantastic staff. And a great band on this evening! Mind you, I am a member of the band, but this really one of the best pubs in Ipswich!

A great atmosphere. Friendly, efficient bar staff, especially Suzi who was on her own when we visited, she served everyone, was smiling and chatty and kept everyone happy. Everyone was enjoying the music and the comfortable surroundings. The live music events are well worth going to too.

Nice place for a beer great friendly Irish bar

Nice place to visit for a pint. Need to make toilets more accessible....It's like a maze but still good value for your money :)

Very friendly Irish pub. Great live music and top staff

Friendly staff and great drinks

Lovely night. Very kind and warm atmosphere

Brilliant local in the heart of Ipswich.

Ottimo locale per prendere qualcosa da bere ed ascoltare musica dal vivo. Età media non proprio giovanissima, locale non molto grande ma accogliente. Dispone anche di uno spazio all aperto sul retro.

Lovely atmosphere about the place. Irish band added to a great evening.

saw camel foot raiders there, great atmosphere, great band. definitely will return. even the door man was friendly.

Friendly atmosphere here and brilliant live music.

Friendly staff and good atmosphere

One of the best pubs in Ipswich. Easy going and friendly. Clean and tidy and great live music at the weekends. Well worth a visit..

Great atmosphere. Best pint of Guinness in town!

Honest David's reviews. Been here a couple of times now with the misses....it's an okay pub, nice if bar with friendly staff. Lots of choice of drinks and seating area out the back of a crafty gag if you want one... All in all no problems gets a good 4****

Great bar staff, good drinks and some decent bands.

A nice place with some good bands on a Friday and Sunday.

Always friendly... good music ... traditional Irish style and beers... but no real ale

Irish pub. Large selection of drinks and an outdoor covered area for smokers. Good quality Live music most weekends.

Apart of the fight I had to witness in the first five minutes it's OK because I was able to drink my Guinness

Good live music, fantastic Guinness!!! And plenty of other lovely drinks to choose from with friendly bar staff

Love this place Such a lovely pub , atmosphere is so cool and happy xx Amazing staff and service , really looking after u and caring x lovely people to chat Love the way it all done as feels cozy and comfortable Ideal place to relax or have fun ... Very friendly and relaxing just feels right Very recommend xxxx

Happened to chance on some live music at this very establishment on a Sunday evening after watching football at another pub near by. We were pleasantly surprised to see such a lively place on a Sunday evening in Ipswich (Ipswich generally closes on a Sunday afternoon!). Turned what we thought would be a quiet evening out into a cracking evening.

Irish Pub is a good pub. Decent price nice place for a quite drink and a chat

Very nice bar in the midst of Ipswitch

loud but enjoyable.... lots of character... would visit again

Nice pub. Good beer. Live music.

Popped in for a couple of pints before heading off to football. Nice atmosphere on a Saturday lunchtime. Prices average for Ipswich. Good location if you fancy a break from shopping. Would return.

I have visited a number of times on a Sunday and they have live entertainment from about 3.30 onwards and there is an excellent atmosphere. The staff are brilliant with drinks priced at the top end with no real ale, but considering the entertainment it's good value. They do a good house wine and bottled Doombar. A nice please to spend a Sunday afternoon.

I visited on a Sunday, having never been to ipswich before. Unknown to me it was football derby Day!! So not a usual Sunday by any stretch of the imagination. Relaxed, atmosphere, friendly barmaid. A few locals made us welcome , along with a few other visitors. no food, as they had to close the kitchen as people weren't eating. seems more of a drinker's pub, rather than an eater's pub. lovely little backyard,with couple of safas fro those of us who like to smoke. Very clean toilets.
