Kennedy’s is an authentic Irish bar located in the heart of the city on Allen Street.  As with any true Irish bar, Kennedy’s gets its name from the owner's family - Dermot’s 'Ma' Ann the eponym of Kennedy’s, while the bar also pays homage to one of Ireland’s greatest ever stew makers, our Granny Kennedy!

Kennedy's offers a welcoming atmosphere and attentive service, whether you’re enjoying a quiet pint of Guinness, people watching with an espresso martini on the deck or sipping one of Wellington’s finest craft beers whilst playing pool with your mates. Settle in and enjoy the experience and feel at home.

Book a table for the weekly Wednesday comedy quiz night.  With live music every Friday, Kennedy’s is the spot to enjoy a good old dance surrounded by like-minded folk.

Opening Hours:

Wednesday - Friday:  3.00pm - 1.00am
Saturday:  5.00pm - 1.00am
