An Irish pub on Baghramyan 2 in Yerevan. The Guinness is poured slow and the football is loud.
We opened 26Irish because Yerevan deserved a proper Irish pub, the kind with dark wood and a bartender who remembers your order by the second visit.
Some nights it's quiet and you can hear the glasses clink. Other nights there's a fiddle going and someone's birthday spilling across three tables. Both versions are us.
The kitchen does honest Irish comfort food and the taps stay cold. The door's open to anyone who walks in alone and wants to leave with friends. Come find us on Baghramyan 2.
Poured in two stages and given time to settle. The head will hold a coin.
Redbreast 12, single pot still, for when you've earned one. Jameson for the easy nights.
Armenian brews next to old-world classics like London Pride. Ask what's fresh on tap.
The full list with prices is in the menu. The cocktail pages alone are worth the flip.
Something's always on. Here's what fills our calendar week to week.
Dancing Rye play the pub regularly. Their setlist runs from fast jigs to the kind of ballad that quiets the whole room. Fair warning: by the third song people start dancing between the tables, and nobody's ever minded.
Quizit and OmniQuiz run regular rounds here, and Thursdays belong to "What? Where? When?", our rowdiest tradition. Bring a team of friends who think they're clever. The losing tables heckle and the winning table buys a round. Somehow everyone comes back next week.
A guided flight through Ireland's distilleries, usually four or five pours. Each bottle comes with its story and a few opinions you're welcome to disagree with. Most people arrive loyal to one brand and leave with a new one.
If a match matters, it's on our screens with the volume up. Big games pack the place out, so book a table if you want an actual seat. Though honestly, standing at the bar has its charm too.
Every pub has regulars. Ours organized. The Irish Fam started as a handful of people who kept showing up on quiz night, and grew into the crowd that now fills half the room on a Thursday.
They know the bartenders by name and have claimed unofficial seats nobody else dares take. New faces get treated the way an Irish pub is supposed to treat them: pull up a chair, what are you having?
You don't sign up for the Fam. You just keep coming back, and at some point you realize you're in it.
Things worth writing down from behind the bar.
First posts are on the way.
