Very touristy but that's almost part of its charm. The inside is heavily decorated and the atmosphere is buzzing. There is typical Irish live music. If you can find somewhere to sit or perch it's well worth popping in for a pint of Guinness just for the experience. There are probably more 'authentic pubs' to visit but if you are happy to take something on face value and enjoy being a typical tourist for an hour or two you will have a laugh.
