While there’s nothing distinctly Irish about the menu—think popcorn, gambas, spaghetti–you can still order bangers and mash, fish and chips, and shepherd’s pie if you’re really looking for something Irish. Aside from the Guinness, you can also indulge in the triple distilled Jameson Irish whiskey, or try the intriguing caramel beer on tap.</p><div><strong>Marshall’s Irish Pub </strong></div><p>Mango Square, Mango Avenue, Cebu City, (032) 412-6418, (0917) 631-2413 </p><p>If you live in Cebu, visit this friendly pub any time of the day for Irish grub like corned beef and cabbage, cottage pie, shepherd’s pie, bangers and mash, fish and chips, or any of the Filipino, Italian, and Mexican dishes on its extensive menu. The pub also serves an all-day breakfast fare, including an Irish breakfast platter of eggs, ham, sausage, fried potatoes, and toast. Irish drinks are the usual Guinness and Murphy’s beers, Magners Irish cider, and Jameson Irish whiskey. </p>
