    We had a fantastic night here as France won the match against Morocco. Such fun ambiance and crowd. Bartenders were really nice. They had multiple TV screens so it was awesome to watch the match and not miss anything if someone was blocking one screen. Food was good as well. Definitely a good place to go to watch your games.

    Fantastic ambiance and overall experience during the FIFA World Cup semifinals opposing France to Morocco. Great bar food, killer O’Hara’s IPA beer and more.

    Cool Irish pub with very good service and a huge choice of drinks. We didn’t eat but usually the burgers in Irish pubs are great. We went there on a monday, so it was quiz night, had a lot of fun.

    Great atmosphere and quick service, however, the Fish N' Chips tasted like a$$. My disappointment was immesurable and my day nearly ruined, were it not for the IPA. You're really not supposed to take the fish off of the fries. Once you lay them onto the fake newspaper, that paper will dissolve. Putting decor over taste? Kind of a bad move from the restaurant. You should account for the average inebriated customer like me for not being able to account for wet-paper-physics. Actually, is that why the Fish-batter tasted like medicine? And unlike fish at all? I'll still rate this place highly. Just don't get their fish n' chips.

    Good basic pub grub. Was bingo night which was hilarious and obviously brings in all the students. We were made to feel welcome and joined in with the games.

    We had an amazing night for the world cup finals Argentina-France 😊. They put three huge screens for everyone in the pub to watch. They usually just have big TVs. they have a nice place outdoors during spring but everyone is smocking, it's the only thing about the place that I don't like, but it's out of their control I guess. Food is wonderful and the staff super attentive and friendly

    One of the best burgers in Freiburg. Combine them with Irish Ciders. Nice vegetarian options as well. Tried mushroom burger and chilli corn nachos burger. Really good. Value for money.

  • 5/5 Chris G. 5 months ago on Google • 13 reviews
    Love this Place. Come to Freiburg every year in November for the kw-con from Sunday to Wednesday and visit the Pub twice every stay.

    my favourite pub of all times! always nice atmosphere and good food love(d) the event nights totally recommend we had the chicken wraps and bacon cheese burger both delicious though I would suggest you order the burger with extra cheese for perfect balance of ingredients ;)

    First of all, I wanted to give a back story of why I gave the food only 1 star. I visited O'Kelly's for the first time upon a friend's recommendation to try their fish and chips. It's the chef's recommendation and I love fish and chips! Sadly, the white fish was under seasoned or not seasoned at all. The batter was undercooked so everything was soggy. The fries were cold and also not seasoned. I was really disappointed because I was really looking forward to it, especially after being caught in the rain. We told the server about the fish. He listened to us very attentively and told us that they had gotten a different fish over the Christmas season. And then he said he would communicate with the chef and his boss about the fish. And then he came back to our table and thanked us repeatedly for letting them know about the fish. He didn't charge us for our table. I have to say the service recovery is very very good but I almost felt as if they knew that they would have problems with the new fish and the server came to us prepared with an answer. Maybe it's me overthinking. Also I don't think the fish is the only problem but also the cooking. Other than that, the ambience was good. It's as Irish as an Irish bar goes. We walked into a full restaurant and it was bustling and quite loud. We were lucky to have found a table ourselves. The server was quick to come to our table and took our orders. The servers spoke perfect English for customers who don't speak German. It's maybe 10 minutes on foot from the train station. Despite the food, I would visit again the next time I'm in Freiburg. Hopefully the food is better next time.

    Excellent beer! They keep excellent stout called O'Haras and I cannot recommend enough. The staff are polite and wait tables saving you the hassle of going to the bar. Sport is on the TV and we got to enjoy the rugby world cup. Atmosphere is relaxed.

    Authentic Irish pub run by Irish people. Irish beer (more than just Guinness and Kilkenny), great food (the burgers alone... 🤤) and a large selection of whiskey (and whisky).

    Everything is great, other than the veggie burger which should really improve. Maybe they should consider havibg "beyond meet".

    Had an amazing evening, so lovely staff, Sarah was like we know her for ages but met her the first day. Very good food we felt like sitting in Ireland. Thanks for everything will be back for sure.

  • 5/5 Hallie H. 3 years ago on Google
    this was my favorite familiar spot in Freiburg. I loved getting the fish and chips with a Kilkenny. GREAT service, always friendly and the environment is fun! it's a great spot to watch a game and enjoy time with friends

  • 4/5 Akash N. 2 years ago on Google
    We went for one of the euro 2021 games. The main area of the bar is super delightful and gives strong Irish pub vibes. We were seated in the adjacent room because of the euro crowd and there it was bit of a dampner. But the food and the drinks more than made up for it. Of course they have Guiness. The shepherds pie is amazing and so are the other typical grub you find in Irish pubs. It's really affordable and the service is on point. Only relatively bad point, if one could call it that, would be the location of the pub, which is right next to the opera House. But that's just me.

  • 3/5 Patrick H. 2 years ago on Google
    Fish and chips plus pints of O'Hara's IPA are a personal favourite. For those struggling with their German they speak English here. Outside seating.

  • 5/5 Max T. 3 years ago on Google
    I had my first beer at O'kellys the very same evening I moved to Freiburg. I've been countless times there ever since, with friends during good and bad times. The staff is the best, always friendly, and gosh the burgers are awesome. My next visit is something that I'm always looking forward to!

  • 5/5 jaime g. 2 years ago on Google

    Really good place for enjoying good beers and food. One on the few places in freiburg for watching rugby matches.

  • 5/5 Mayank S. 1 year ago on Google
    An amazing Irish pub in the city. On Mondays you have the pub quiz here which by the way is very entertaining. (You can win amazing drinks too). The vibe is also completely different with good music. The best thing about Kelly's is their burgers. They are seriously amazing! It has a small outdoor area and a huge indoor seating.

  • 5/5 Tiziano R. 1 year ago on Google
    I spend the last 3 years here. (As it was possible) the service is/was unique. Moes Pub Quiz evening made it special to me. Unfortunately I had to move away, but whenever it is possible: I will return. Thank you so much. Thank for all the stuff I got taught during the quiz Ovis Aries Greetings by the Band of Brothers

  • 5/5 Reece H. 1 year ago on Google
    The food was very nice and with very large portions. Also a good place to watch a variety of sports.

  • 5/5 Irene C. 1 year ago on Google
    Good beer and also good food (until 22, then you can only order french fries, that are usually very good). The pub is nice and not too loud, you can also see sports events. At the end everybody can pay with the card, even for just a beer (in some other pubs in Freiburg that is not possible).

  • 4/5 Sahil V. 1 year ago on Google
    Visited O’Kellys off a recommendation from a friend and I have to say, it was indeed a well earned recommendation. The staff was quite friendly, the service was prompt and there is a nice selection of beers and burgers to choose from! It has a nice selection of music that’s at just about the right volume to not be too loud to drown out conversations and too low to actually make a difference. The fish and chips were okay but weren’t the greatest I’ve had :( I’m still looking forward to visiting again though!

  • 4/5 Christos M. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice authentic Irish pub. We had a veg mushroom burger which was huge and draft lager beer.

  • 5/5 Mark T. 7 months ago on Google • 3 reviews
    I've been a vegetarian for over forty years, and I've had a lot of sub-par food. This is by far the best veggie burger I've ever had. Great friendly service, excellent beer, and really good value. Can't recommend O'Kellys pub enough.

  • 5/5 Pintoproof 8 months ago on Google
    So good, I wanted to gate keep. Service ---- The staff are mostly foreigners but speak both German and English. I highly recommend you this pub if you have a difficult time ordering in German. Everyone is super friendly, they are quite attentive and meet you at eye level. Although there is almost always a lot going on, they keep their cool which is so sweet! Atmosphere ---- I've never been to Ireland but I imagine the bar to be a bit like Ireland. There is a pun quiz every Monday which is extremely fun! It gets quite loud sometimes. Which is a shame if you're really into talking to someone. But that's a pub, that's normal. The food. THE FOOOD!!!! ---- In Freiburg, everything seems to close at 22:00 After that? Good luck finding a place to eat. Or, you come to O'Kelly's. They have a mid wide food menu that gives you a good indicator that the food is fresh(?) From wraps to burgers to fries and even a special. So far I've only had burgers because I am a sucker for good burgers. Which is why I go here if it gets late. These have to be if not the 3rd best burgers in town. They could work on their sauce but that's also just me being hyper critical as a burger conoseur. Go here. Just do it. To the staff: Thank you for your great service To the kitchen staff Thank you for your timely sacrifice, I am sure it would be great to go home earlier but oh boy am I great full for what you do.

    Fühle mich da immer wohl und die Getränke sind immer genau so wie sie sein sollen. Die Location ist auch genau richtig für Leute die in der Stadt nach dem bummeln einfach mal genießen wollen. Auch nicht zu voll wie man es sonst bei solchen Irish pubs kennt. Alles in allem sehr angenehm und weiter zu empfehlen.?

    Der beste Burger in Freiburg weit und breit:D

  • 5/5 Christoph G. 3 years ago on Google
    Irland ist auch zu Zeiten von "stay at home" ganz um die Ecke - im Freiburger O'Kellys zum Beispiel. Ich kann mich hier im Pub wunderbar nach Irland träumen - bei gutem Burger und einem Glas Guinness und zum Nachtisch noch einem leicht torfig schmeckenden irischen Whiskey. Wenn dann im Hintergrund der Barmann der Bedienung etwas in seinem originellen Englisch zuruft - dann bin ich in Irland! Immer wieder gerne.

  • 3/5 Christian H. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A typical pub with very friendly service. The burger is one of the tastiest I've ever eaten. The patties were fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside and still very juicy. Price / performance: perfect! After a year we were there again in transit. This time there was nothing left of the delicious castles. The patties were dry and fried way too long :-(. Really disappointing! (Original) Ein typischer Pub mit sehr freundlicher Bedienung. Der Burger gehört zu den leckersten die ich bisher gegessen habe. Die Patties waren perfekt gebraten. Außen knusprig und trotzdem sehr saftig. Preis/Leistung: Perfekt! Nach einem Jahr waren wir auf der Durchreise wieder dort. Diesmal war von den leckeren Burgen nichts mehr übrig. Die Patties waren trocken und viel viel zu lange gebraten :-(. Wirklich enttäuschend!

  • 5/5 Cicero H. 4 years ago on Google
    I loved the place, even than I avoided it because it was often too full. The food is not only beautiful but delicious, the beer is fresh, the service is impeccable (be sure to leave them a nice tip :)) and I believe the prices are fair and close to the rest of the city. Now regarding the burgers I think this is the best value for what you get, I know that we have other nice burger places l but this is by far the best one.

    Best burger place in Freiburg. Been going there for years now. They have a great selection of meat and veggie burgers for very good prices. They also offer great drinks. Don’t forget the whiskey and gin tasting offers! Lots of activities all week long, such as Bingo, Football matches, etc. highly recommended if you are either living or visiting Freiburg!

It's a shame I have better memories of the pub (Original) Service sehr durchwachsen. Irgendwie desinteressiert und lustlos egal ob man bestellen oder bezahlen möchte. Schade habe den Pub in besserer Erinnerung
