Something Kinston has been needing for a while, a good Irish pub. They serve Guinness, Smithwicks, and other good Irish beer (and the American stuff too). Great atmosphere, and friendly service. Check out their TRIVIA night which is the 1st and 3rd Wednesday’s of the month from 7-9pm.

We hosted my 10th Class Reunion at the Barrister in Kinston. I planned it (with help from friends) from 12 hours away. Vanessa was a phenomenal point person. She had great ideas to make the night special, signature drink, outdoor games, and she secured a delcious food truck for our event. Paige and Cody were A+ bar tenders, kind and lovely mixologists. This is best bar I’ve been to in Kinston, NC. Milton regularly checked in, asking how he could help us and had a solution for every request. Milton clearly has a passion for the culture he creates in the area and serving his community well. Things couldn’t have gone more smooth thanks to this phenomenal crew, gorgeous venue, and great service. The venue itself is fantastic. The inside is a beautifully restored historic building and the back has a lights strung throughout the fenced in area with picnic tables and a stage. The Barrister Irish Pub in Kinston, NC will stay at the top of my list for event hosting and should be at the top of yours too. I look forward to attending one of their events they host next time I’m in town!
The North Lenoir Class of 2015 thanks you!

I can’t say enough good things about this place. It’s a gem here in Kinston. The atmosphere is wonderful, the bartenders are sweet as the cocktails they make. The bar itself is beautiful, it has an old world feel. They serve top shelf spirits. A lot of Buffalo Trace labels! It’s my favorite place to hang out now. I love everything about it, if I could give 10 stars. I so would!

Was passing through Kinston and saw the Guinness sign. Great bar atmosphere, plenty of large TVs, a backyard and nice array of drinks. They did not serve food the night I was there but I was able to have food delivered from one of the nearby pizza joints.

What a Pub! A little piece of Ireland right here in Kinston. You will be enchanted by the vibes and decor and taken on a little trip across the pond. When they have live music it is fabulous! You can get Guinness on tap- and the bartenders are pretty cute 🙂

Come here for awesome service and less of a party atmosphere so you can escape the younger, more rowdy crowds at other locations. The owner and his staff are all amazing people and it’s the only spot in town I’d ever consider visiting for a good drink

Awesome place, great bartenders. It is exactly what it is advertised to be and I think that’s something missing in a lot of start up businesses. Also they Have Smithwicks on tap, thats a 5 star feature.
