Described as ‘an old man’s pub for all ages and sexes,’ Seamus’s Pub near the Meadows replaced the former International Bar back in May. It’s open seven days a week with live music Friday to Sundays from 5pm. The bar offers a range of stouts including their very own Seamus’s Stout which they say is a ‘smooth and creamy dry stout, delivering layers of roasted coffee and cocoa’. The drinks menu also includes cocktails including mojitos, French martinis, spritz cocktails and margaritas
