    The most awful experience in Eindhoven. If I could give 0 stars I would. I am allergic to pepper and after careful reading the menu I opted for the cottage pie. I received, together with some other two mates of mine, something that was beyond spicy. One of my friend, was crying for how much it was spicy! After informing the waiter about it (it was uneatable) he asked me if I wanted to eat something else. The pie was almost intact I could only eat a spoon. So I ordered a schnitzel. The quality of the food, it’s below zero. In the schnitzel there were some over, over cooked green peas, not talking about the oily fried meat that gave me stomach ache. When it was time to pay, we noticed that the pie was included. We went asking for removing it and the waiter, with a poker face, looked at me saying you should have known that the original English recipe is like this so I cannot take it out if the bill. You should have read the menu and the ingredients. First, there was no info on the menu about how spicy was that awful plate, second, I am not English so I don’t know the recipe. If you don’t write it down on the menu I am no oracle. I can’t know. He told me it is your fault, you should have informed us before your ordered your food. This is a plate of 16,5€ over a bill of 300€. Never ever going there again anymore and be careful! AWFUL, below zero. PS. I went reading the recipe over BBC and no pepper was included… someone is lying.. bad job. Awful customer service. 🤢🤢🤢 awful food as well.

    Looking for a disappointing review of Trafalgar Pub? Look no further! My experience at this establishment left much to be desired. My friends and I ordered a variety of dishes, including the calamari and steak, and unfortunately, neither lived up to our expectations. The salmon and carpaccio were passable, but not particularly noteworthy. To wash down our meal, we ordered a round of Guinness beers, only to be served something that tasted entirely different. When we brought this to the attention of our waitress, she was dismissive and insisted that it was the "original" beer. Even after consulting with our Irish friend, who confirmed that something was off with the taste, the waitress remained rude and unhelpful. To make matters worse, the atmosphere was stifling and airless, and the service was painfully slow for a Thursday night. All in all, I would not recommend Trafalgar Pub as a dining destination.

    Very nice atmosphere at this old pub with authentic british feel. Both outside as inside beautifully decorated in its simplicity. Front of the house mostly for drinks with a large bar in the center, in the back is more space and seating area for eating. The food was quite good with also several vegetarian/vegan options. We had a burger and shepherd's pie which were both wholesome and delicious. Wide range of drinks and very friendly staff. It was quite busy but we didn't have to wait long for our food. Would definitely go back again for a drink or bite too eat. The british pub feel makes for a nice stay.

    Fish & chips I had was delicious. Paired with a good beer, it was one of the best dinners I had on my 4 week business trip. Service is warm & friendly. A very nice Irish pub! It could get loud inside, so be prepared to have your conversation with plenty of background noise. Definitely stop in for a good meal with a pint.

    A fantastic pub with some of the best Guinness in the Netherlands and tasty food. Well worth a visit if you like Guinness and good food!

    Vegan Shephard pie was super bland and slightly sour. I can't believe I payed 16 euros for something that had no taste.

    Really nice Irish pub with great service. The atmosphere is really awesome, it has been dressed up as an authentic Irish pub, which I love. They also have a wide variety of drinks, ranging from a lot of beers, to a lot of whiskey if you're into that. To top it off; my pint of Guinness got a three leaf clover on top of it. I will most certainly return here in the near future and can definitely recommend this place.

    Walked in for dinner with a guest. Old rugged English pub feel and deco. Food was good and Kilkenny goes always great! Would like to highlight the attentive service of one of their staff - Sharelyn. I mentioned my food allergy, she immediately spotted an error in our order and corrected the order immediately coordinating with the chef. She saved me some hospital time! Thank you Sharelyn. She is an asset to any establishment. Location - 9/10 Ambiance - 10/10 Staff - 10/10 Food - 8/10 Value - 9/10 Recommend - Yes Return - Yes

    Always love visiting this pub when in Eindhoven! Very busy with diners outside on the street, on a beautiful summer night. Inside cosy to sit at the bar, staff Very busy, yet still attentive. Great to soak in the wisdom this place dishes out...

  • 5/5 Liam 1 year ago on Google • 79 reviews
    Very interesting place, didn't know what I was walking into as they have a curtain covering the entrance. As soon as I walked in I was greeted warmly. Had a beautiful burger and loved the bun, very different. Extremely busy and was very happy to just sit at the bar and eat

    I have enjoyed coming to The Trafalgar Pub in Eindhoven for over 25 years. It is one of my favourite places to meet up with good friends. It is extremely cosy, the food is simply good (the Shepherd's Pie is my favourite) and you have a huge range of tasty beers on tap. In all these years, virtually nothing has changed. It's always full house. Quite honestly, I missed a few old familiar staff after Corona but was pleasantly surprised again last time with really friendly employees who have mastered the art of hospitality.

    Beautiful real english pub, with original fornitures. Friendly staff and a long list of beers. Good cottage pie and steak and onion pie. Large portions! Good prices. Dogs are allowed.

  • 5/5 Alex B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice pub, relaxed atmosphere, great music friendly staff. Not super conventional to work at a pub but it was really nice and relaxed place to get some editing done while enjoying a Guinness and meeting up with a friend for dinner afterwards!

  • 5/5 Patrick D. 1 year ago on Google
    Friendly staff, nice terrace although limited in size, inside it's gorgeous for a pint or meal in any season of the year. The shepherd stew was excellent.

  • 5/5 Michael M. 2 years ago on Google
    First meal after a couple of weeks in Nigeria, so I'm sure that affected my impression of it, but it was really good. Convenient to the hotels near the train station.

  • 5/5 Sam V. 2 years ago on Google
    Was completely packed so we sat outside with a group of 8 until a spot got free inside. As soon as a spot opened up one of the personnel gave us a heads up. Prices were on the high side, but we were told that someone paid our bill so i ain't complaining :).

    What a great find!! Visited for the first time last night just for drinks...from the outside it looks like a tiny quaint place but when you get inside...wow! Absolutely stunning place, atmosphere is great and the staff were super friendly, attentive and professional...choice of beers is awesome and the prices are average for a city centre bar. Would highly recommend this bar and we are so glad we found it. Thank you Emo for a fantastic evening.

    The top you may expect from the typical british pub food. It's like being in a countryside English pub.

  • 4/5 Raphael K. 3 years ago on Google
    The service is top of the notch. They say all super fast to get you seated, serve the drinks and to bring the food. All this in 10 minutes. That's what I call "Service". We had a Carpaccio and charcuterie. Yummy.

  • 4/5 Fred K. 1 year ago on Google
    Someone in comments is rather sour. And gave this place one star. Don't know why? Guiness is almost as best you're gonna get. And the beenham (country ham?) is one of my favorite dishes for many a year. Might be a troll? Jan O ja: ben je vegan? Ga dan naar een veganrestaurant... Misschien.

    I have been coming here occasionally for more than 15 years and there is always a good atmosphere. Good price/quality ratio and friendly personnel. That's why it's always busy there. Make reservations if you are going to eat there. Especially on Friday and Saturday evenings.

  • 5/5 Alex van H. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Cozy Irish pub with many choices in beer and whiskey. In addition, you have more than enough choices for evening food and that for an affordable price! (Original) Gezellige Irish pub met veel keuzes in bier en whisky. Daarnaast heb je nog meer dan voldoende keuzes voor avond eten en dat voor een betaalbare prijs!

    Decent pub. Tasty food and good selection of drinks and deserts. Don't be under the impression that it's like British pubs, though. It seems that the creators of this establishment have never been to a UK pub. Just ignore the fake-Britishness and enjoy the pub for what it is! :)

    The service is not specially friendly. Some menu items take very long to get ready (and that is signaled on the menu appropriately), but even others that should be faster take a long time to come out. We waited around 40 minuted to get our burgers, and the pub was not even very full. That said, I did not find the burger very good.

    Nice British pub. We had fish and chips and it was very good! They also have a large variety of beers. Can be a little loud, but that's part of the experience!

  • 3/5 Angela C. 1 year ago on Google
    I really liked the Pub vibe / decoration and the fact of having vegetarian options and menu in both dutch and english, but it's a little bit pricey for what you are eating. (Around 30-40euros per person). You can find cheaper optios for the same food.

    (Translated by Google) We had to wait a bit long for the food, but in the end it was very tasty and filling. Furthermore, their menu is reasonably priced and therefore attractive to students. The lighting is on the edge of atmospheric and dark, haha. (Original) We moesten een beetje lang wachten op het eten, maar uiteindelijk was het wel heel lekker en goed vullend. Verder is hun menu redelijk geprijsd en dus ook aantrekkelijk voor studenten. De verlichting is wel op het randje van sfeervol en donker, haha.

  • 4/5 Ali B. 4 years ago on Google
    The atmosphere of the pub is really good, very nice decorated pub. I strongly advise to book a table for Friday and Saturday nights since it is really impossible to find a free table for weekends. This restaurant is located at a very good spot where is in the city center, i can say. As a food point of view... It is ok. We tried hamburgers and their taste is okay. As a size if the plate, it is big enough to be full. They serve it with some french fries.” And some mayonnaise. Generally service is slow since it is crowded so expect a kind of delay when you order. But overall, staff is very kind.

    Very cozy place with authentic British atmosphere, you can easily forget you are in Eindhoven and not in London. The choice of pies is very limited though, but on the other hand they are huge. When we asked to pack the remaining pies with us, they took them away from our table, but later informed us they did not have any plastic containers, so my hopes for the late dinner at home were ruined.
