There’s something timeless and comforting about a great local pub – and ours is no exception. ❤️❤️❤️

The Heart of Our Local Pub

There’s a certain magic to a truly local Irish pub – a sense of belonging, a warm welcome, and familiar faces that greet you at the door. For our community in Cork, that place is Poc Ar Buile.

But what really makes this pub so special? Two unforgettable names: Mike and Monika Pokojska.

Meet Mike – The Soul Behind the Bar

Mike is more than just a bartender – he’s a local icon. Known for his big heart, sharp wit, and dedication to every customer who walks in, Mike brings tradition, charm, and authenticity to Poc Ar Buile.

He’s not just pouring pints – he’s building community, one story and one smile at a time.

Monika Pokojska – The Warmest Welcome in Cork

Equally beloved is Monika Pokojska, who brings grace, professionalism, and a genuine warmth to everything she does. With an effortless smile and kind energy, she helps create the welcoming atmosphere that keeps people coming back again and again.

Behind every smooth operation at the pub is Monika’s quiet leadership and relentless dedication.

Recognised by the Echo – And By All of Us

It’s no surprise that this iconic duo has caught the eye of the media. In a beautiful profile on Echo Live, Mike and Monika’s contribution to local culture and community life was highlighted in full glory.
