    The most expensive bar I had ever come across 325 ml draught beer cost me Rs 890 including taxes. A pint beer is Rs 990. I am regretting after having ordered the same . Also the ambience is not commensurate the price they charge and the service is also not great. . I would definitely will not go for such expensive beer as in Leela Banaglore 300 ml is Rs 640 Please stay out of the place unless your pocket is deep.

    Had a great time while waiting for my flight. Good service, nice portions. Slightly overpriced but overall a good place to hangout if you have to kill time and have a few drinks before boarding a flight in Chennai.

    Hit it, liked it. Get your beer on the run. If you're in a hurry to catch a flight literally and u need a refreshment good place to hangout. The place is costlier with a cost of single beer at Chandigarh we can buy 5 beers. Careful folks.... 😎😄😄😄😎

    They don't have great menu....very limited menu. Also they dont have temperature controller... Either they can switch on or switch off the ac, which creates extreme tempretures.

    An only great place in an otherwise boring Chennai domestic Airport. Overpriced of course as you would expect at an Airport.

    The Irish House, in the Chennai T1 domestic airport, is on the upper level near the lounges. Best to ask what's available rather than select food and beverages from the menu. Gloomy lighting, rather noisy with TV and chatter.

  • 5/5 Ajith K. 2 months ago on Google • 195 reviews New
    On the third floor of Chennai International AirPort Domestic Terminal. Good ambiance, quiet, and moderately priced. Bar is well maintained and has excellent service.

  • 1/5 Ranjit R. 1 year ago on Google
    Kids are not welcome in this restaurant at Chennai airport. Consumption of liquor is probhibited for age less than 21 years which is completely understandable. However they haven’t put a signage outside their restaurant stating “kids are not welcome” . They will shop you off with your kid(s) if you try to enter their restaurant. I will give 0 out of five stars for discriminating kids !!!

    It’s in the domestic airport building at third floor It’s too costly you can’t justify the price If you have extra bugs to throw then it’s fine🤓 Kids are not allowed 🤪 then why do you have it in airport? Anyhow if you ask me will I visit again NOT Probably

    Pathetic food. They are just spoiling the brand name. None of the food tasted good. This pic is the jamaican wings. Honestly a completely no if you need to have good food.

  • 3/5 chinmoy s. 5 years ago on Google
    I was here on 25.3.2019. had some time to kill while i was in chennai waiting for an onward flight. Its on the third floor besides the lounge. Let me tell you this place is just too expensive. I love irish houses. I have been to many expensive bars all over the world. When the price of something is justified by the quality i dont complain. But when you arent getting what you paid for then i dont like it. The long island iced tea i ordered cost 660 excluding taxes. When it arrived i was disappointed. The saddest LIIT i ever had. Thankfully they changed it when i pointed it out. Other than that, good ambience and music , good food. So all in all if you carry 10 grand as pocket change and dont care about the amount of alcohol you get for the price please do visit this place.

    Worst Irish pub ever , they sell one beer ,just one. Unbelievable. Half the food menu is unavailable,they should shut this place down.

  • 4/5 Sumit R. 6 years ago on Google
    We were stuck with about 3 hours delay at the domestic airport and had nothing to do. That’s when we thought of having a drink each. That’s when we saw a board of The Irish house , a upscale bar. The Irish house offers a wide variety of drinks . Be it cocktails , whisky , vodka or mock tails. The ambience is also decently good. The place plays live music and has counters right there near the bar tender. The place also offers service at your table. Would advice if you looking for some snacks and a couple of drinks provided bill is not a constrain.

  • 1/5 Ashish S. 1 year ago on Google
    Don’t visit here post 10pm you won’t get food Even if you somehow it won’t be good 1. Never order chips and dip it’s not what you expect 2. Too expensive 3. A draught beer kingfisher worth ₹500/-inc taxes 4. Chips and dip worth ₹370/- Is too expensive and not worth it, expected better experience since I carried one from Bombay but this one was disappointing. There’s no incentive worth visiting again

  • 4/5 Rewanth R. 3 weeks ago on Google • 62 reviews New
    The service was pretty good, was here on a Sunday night, for a domestic connection, and had Bloody Mary and Inverted Beer. Nijith &Shiva were helpful. The food was good -Mediterranean platter.

  • 5/5 Rakesh Rk S. 1 year ago on Google • 49 reviews
    Nothing beats the heat like a chilled beer and finger food while on a long wait at chennai airport. The service is good too. Our time at The Irish house was worth every penny spent. Rakesh & Ankitha.

  • 5/5 Ashish G. 3 months ago on Google • 21 reviews New
    What makes this place good is that there is seating. The lounges at the Chennai airport are FULL all the time. So here, at Irish, there is a little bit of solace. The service is exemplary. They seem to have worked on it, staffing is way better. Aravindh Kumar was great. 5 stars and a kudos. Ask for recommendations. They know whats cooking 😊

  • 5/5 john d. 10 months ago on Google
    Great Ambience, Nice view from the bar of the flights taking off, Excellent staffs. Especially syama was so professional. I had Draught beer, it was super cold and it tasted awesome. Nothing ever tasted better than a cold beer on a beautiful afternoon in the special bar in Chennai, THE IRISH HOUSE. Loved it❤️ Hope to visit there soon.

  • 4/5 Smith P. 2 years ago on Google
    I travelled to Mumbai from Chennai sometime back. This seems to be the peaceful place to spend your free time. The place is maintained well. The prices are higher than usual as this is located inside the airport. Ambience is soothing. You can visit here with friends and family. The entrance is accessible ♿✔️

  • 2/5 Aditi K. 2 years ago on Google
    Ambience is great, but rates are like double or triple of other places

  • 1/5 kuldeep v. 2 years ago on Google
    Poor service, rates are very high. Whatever is written in menu, half of items are missing. In short, they will decide what you should be served and not what you like.

  • 5/5 Tanvir ali S. 3 months ago on Google New
    The cafe is a nice break point in the hustle of the airport. Shyamlal has been a great host.

  • 1/5 muthupradeep 3 months ago on Google New
    Excellent place. Always a pleasure. Staffs like E Dilli Babu make it even more pleasant.

  • 5/5 Shekhar R. 4 years ago on Google
    The Irish House. Maintaining expectations. Exactly like all other Irish Houses in the country... Beautiful view... Perfectly good ambience.... Perfectly well mannered staffs.. Price is not too much... Maybe twice what you get in other bars.... Food is superbly amazing.... Will definitely visit again... Love you Guys.. keep up the good work!!! 😑😁😁

  • 5/5 Vishwajeet J. 6 months ago on Google
    Irish house Chennai airport is amazing. The atmosphere is awesome with all staff like akskhaya are so supportive and amazing. I highly recommend to visit it once.

  • 4/5 Anupam D. 1 year ago on Google
    Everything was good except the price, which is quite heavy on pocket.

  • 5/5 Shivani K. 6 months ago on Google
    It was my first visit to Chennai and while flying back to Bombay from Chennai Airport, spent time at the Irish House. I am particularly writing this review to highly appreciate the service offered to me by Miss. AKSHAYA. She looked after my table/order and was extremely kind & polite and if I ain't wrong, was the only female waitress. The food & drink options are very good. Recommend Orange Virgin Mojito here, it's classic. Mini mezze as vegetarian option is good followed by spaghetti Italiano veg. French fries are served hot and and super tasty, ceaser salad is okay. If there's still room left in your tummy then don't miss brownie with vanilla Ice-cream. It's not the sizzling one but still very good. Again big thanks to Miss Akshaya for making the experience at Irish house Chennai Airport an amazing one.

  • 3/5 Saurabh K. 8 months ago on Google
    Limited beer options with NO IRISH BEER available during my visit. Ambience is very good and relaxing.

  • 2/5 Andrew S. 1 year ago on Google
    Staff seemed nice enough. Only the decor is Irish. No irish beer, or spirits, no Irish feeling, loud techno/house/pop music the whole time.

  • 4/5 Bikash S. 1 year ago on Google
    Good place to hangout while waiting for your flight. Fast service and good pricing plus the vibe is good.

  • 1/5 Anvesh C. 1 year ago on Google
    Too expensive services need to be improved on a serious note kitchen sending cold food and no one cares in service department to check. 8f you are too expensive you need to be on your toes which is in whole sole missing

  • 5/5 nishant c. 5 months ago on Google
    Its a good place to sit relax and wait for you flight with a wonderful view and the staff is so generous specially mr vasu Keep going all the best for future

  • 2/5 Dilip N. 1 year ago on Google
    Seems their kitchen is under renovation and there’s only snacks on order which they get from another restaurant within the airport. Liquor rates are exhorbitantly high which they attribute to the taxes… oh come on, Irish house! Why spoil your name? wouldn’t it be just better to close the restaurant and open it after your kitchen is renovated? A highly disappointing experience as compared to the Mumbai one.

  • 5/5 Sudhakar Vemuri (. 1 year ago on Google
    A very decent Irish pub experience in the Chennai Airport for those with a long wait time for their flights. The food was good and the cocktails were superb. We had a very good time here while we waited to board our flight.

  • 5/5 sushant k. 1 year ago on Google
    Perfect getaway to enjoy extra time that you have prior to boarding your flight. Situated at departure terminal in Chennai Airport, post security Check in. The ambience is good, the selection of snacks and food is exceptional and mouth watering. The bar too has decent collection of alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. The service is prompt and courteous. The staff is very welcoming and also will go extra mile to assist you. Must go, of you are here.

  • 1/5 Victor Y. 4 years ago on Google
    Awful service - staff couldn’t sort out a table along with two chairs despite the fact that it was available but other passengers just put their luggage in considerably (and then left). Taking an order took 10 more minutes. Then after 20 minutes I was told that “paneer not good”

  • 2/5 Senthil A. 4 years ago on Google
    Costly place

  • 1/5 Kirill KIRG S. 4 years ago on Google
    No Irish beverages at all, even they are in a menu. No Guinness, no other beer, no even Jameson here. "Oktoberfest" with Corona beer. What?! Contempt to all cultures in one place.

  • 3/5 mubashir q. 6 years ago on Google
    Chennai Airport has a great Pub to wait for the flight - more so if your flight is delayed. There is nice music, welcoming staff and cool drinks to soothe. The food is not much to write about. The announcements and flight status is live on the screen to ensure you don't miss your flight.

  • 1/5 Ashish K. 4 years ago on Google
    The only star that it gets is for playing sports on their TVs. For the second time I went there, they did not have any beer on the tap. From the state of them, it appeared that those taps never dispensed any beer in since they saw the light of life. The service is extremely slow - there were exactly 4 people in the place and 6 servers, yet your food orders took forever to get to your table. The place is unavoidable if you want to get a drink before your flight as I am not sure if there's another place in Chennai airport that serves alcohol. If you are taking care of your lever, avoid this place at all costs - many other places to get better food at much decent prices. Forgot to mention - stupid place doesn't have a wireless card machine so if you want to pay by card, you will have to go to the billing counter.

  • 2/5 Suresh P. 4 years ago on Google
    Poor food quality with average service . No where close to the actual irish house experience. need to step up in terms of food - ordered a grilled chicken burger. No water was offered . They did not have tomato ketchup. Items available were limited compared to the menu which was already limited.

  • 5/5 Gaurav M. 5 years ago on Google

    Un professional staffs. Food taste was worst. BBQ Chicken is in menu but not available. Ordered a fish finger taste was salty. Oh no . You are just making fool to customer.

  • 4/5 Vinay R. 4 years ago on Google
    Recently theres been some problem with people below age 21 to come to this restaurant even though they came only for the food and not the alcohol. I request you guys to figure out a way to allow the customers for the food and ask for age verification when it comes to drinks. Because we've already been here more than thrice and the food tastes really good.
