The single best place in Donetsk for an American, Canadian Brit, Aussie or Zealander - before the Russian infestation. This pub has great food, and excellent service - probably the best in Donetsk. Something as simple as a four cheese pizza is almost artful. I am sad that Westerners arenot welcome in Ukraine any longer. Sad that I can't include a stop here any longer. When the war is over, I will be back.

Pleasant outdoors , staff a bit slow, good location overlooking Lenin Square , thats about it , cannot write anymore , gees its just a pub, what do they want a michellin review, its a pub

This pub has improved greatly since first time I was here in 2010 ... Clean, nice food with the odd Irish name thrown in to make it seem authentic .. Johnny Foxes Rabbit dish ... And for those Irish that arrive when the menu says 'proper Irish chips' it is wedges and not chunky Irish potato chips :-)

Pretty generic pub, looks a bit out of the box, but you are getting your Guinness (poured properly), and the food is OK. Scottish steak is good, so are onion rings. Strangely enough, I've also got some sushi there (you can't get away without a sushi anywhere in ex-USSR I guess), and they were pretty nice! Service seems to be a bit slow.

When I am in Ukraine, visit Golden Lion Irish Pub in Donetsk - as I was told all details and materials were brought really from Ireland. I like decor of the walls by drawings. This is a place where I ordered Murphy and Guinness. We used to spend Fridays with my bank ex-colleagues and even played casino there and billiard; alive band entertained us downstairs. Tequila I tried there as well the first time in my life. British Council has organized several evenings there (not only Irish dinner waited for us but we prepared a special program with songs, humor stories, quiz - winners got prizes!!!). Once I and my daughter met New Year there - was great fun! With a pride I invited my husband there to try pizza - he appreciated as well.
So this place is so democratic and you may visit it on any occasion.
Staff were always welcoming (started with the hostesses at the entrance) and barmen and waiters.
Many foreigners there any time.
