But our most famous English pub doesn't have mushy peas, while one our Irish pubs does. Go figure. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Doesnt matter though, least you know what I look like now! I was a bit drunk in the photo (taken in an irish bar!) Hi Michael: How are things in Yorkshire today? Was it an Irish bar in England or in Ireland? Hi Ruth, things are ok. Been working all day then I had to go out for a couple of hours. The bar wasnt in England or Ireland, it was in Spain. A guy from Dublin had opened it a few years before and it was pretty popular, mainly with English and Irish tourists of course. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

But when I was living there, there wern't any. One of the biggest Irish pubs and certainly one of the most notorious is situated only about 15 miles away from where I now live. During the troubles in Ulster, the people who frequented that place used to collect money to support the IRA. So yes Sue, there are Irish bars and pubs in England.

So yes, Ruth, there seems to be Irish pubs in England and even in Spain. So now folks, what's the difference between an English pub, Irish pub and Spanish pub?
