The Best Irish Pubs in Berlin for Live Music

If you’re looking for Irish charm and a rowdy karaoke night, then Murphy’s Berlin Schiffbauerdamm location is the bar for you. Most Thursday nights, the microphone comes out and everything from power ballads to pop favourites is belted from the bars’ energetic patrons with a pint of Guinness in hand. Even if karaoke isn’t your thing, the bar’s central position by the Spree and its dark wood, cosy interior create a welcoming, traditional atmosphere.

Once a month they have authentic folk music nights and every Sunday they host an English quiz night, both promising tonnes of entertainment and fun for their guests.
