Been-around-forever Fibbers is an amiably scruffy morning-to-night Irish pub with Guinness and Kilkenny on tap, all-day breakfasts (including the legendary breakfast bap), plus a menu of international comfort food designed to keep brains in balance, and sports (rugby to horse racing) on the big screens. Traditional Irish music on Thursday nights puts a tear in many expat eyes.
