Basement Irish Pub Tour - Utah Mancave (for a Utah Man Child) 

As a Brit who has spent at least a couple of minutes in a pub in my lifetime, this is the most authentic looking home pub I've ever seen. Not even a hint of it looking like it's in someone's house. Just looks like a pub. Amazing work.

In 2010 we took a week-long trip to Ireland and visited 47 pubs, your basement pub is the closest home pub I've seen to the real thing. You did one hell of a job! Very jealous! You oughta make some more pub videos to show it off more, slainte!

I think I just found my new best friend! Not only is this an amazing basement pub, but you proudly display a Sigur Ros record!! And I’m in Utah!

I too built a bar in Utah but in Moab. I pretty much live in it. You did a spectacular job. Cheers! You gave me some inspiration.

Exceeded my expectations. A wonderful midlife crisis I’d say. Also I have noted not only the company for the bar stools but also about 2 other things I shall be stealing. Bravo. Excited to see it in person someday - canopy and all. Also sports show - close enough.

Fantastic!!!! You did an amazing job. Cheers!

You are so hilarious. Enjoyed the tour of your basement pub in Utah. ❤

Amazing home Irish Pub build. Love the attention to detail. Everything looks amazing. Love the authentic furniture from Irish Pubs. Looking forward to seeing that canopy installed. I need to post a vlog of my garage bar have a few things remaining to complete. Total escape from the work day and life in general. Thanks for posting!

Looks awesome! I l especially love that you got the piano in there, instantly gives the room more atmosphere.

Fantastic! You have given me so many great ideas for my own man cave. Some times too much of a good thing is just about right!

Absolutely amazing! Fantastic work, proud to know you. Sláinte

exceeds my expectations. gorgeous and inviting. the doorbell is perfect.

This is absolutely incredible!

This is actually really good! Looks a lot more authentic than most. Love it!

Dope!!! I’m going to copy this idea for a room in my house. Gonna toss a pool table in there as well.

This is amazing, really inspiring. Very cool guy, love the humor😂

Love your taste and sense of humor

Love the bar! Next you have to make that bedroom just as cool

Looks amazing! 😊

Your pub has one of the more authentic vibes I've seen in the Southwestern US and I've been to a bunch of actual Irish pubs out that way. The TV was a must if you are gonna watch the GAA or the Six Nations (one of the tournaments Ireland has been dominating lately). Couldn't be a pub without a sports TV somewhere, we do love our sports.

What an amazing labor of love! You've created something so very special here. My husband is over the moon with ideas now. 😄 My much younger brother is going to college in Utah, and when we visit him you might just get yourself some new Massachusetts friends! 👍❤️

This looks absolutely amazing. I am BLOWN AWAY by the faux stain glass windows. Such an "extra mile" touch. It's easy to tell you put alot of care into every detail.

Absolutely fantastic!

Very nice!!! It makes you happy!!!....My home bar is a game room/techno club and it makes me happy

Wow! That's awesome!

You did a fantastic job, really nice buddy, love it.... looks authentic.

Amazing job my man!!! I’m a home theater enthusiast working on a IMAX/Dolby theme theater for mine… totally different feel than this… but the amount of detail and work done here, is incredible… the pho stained glass windows are amazing!! So much incredible work here! We have a saying in the home theater community “are we really ever done?” So I know exactly what you mean when you weren’t totally done.

MATE this is incredible!

Wow! Simply amazing.

This is absolutely incredible! Way to represent SF! 😂🙌🏻

Spectacular!

Love it! I am working on mine now and we have many similar elements.

You've done that brilliantly my friend it looks like a proper battle cruiser.

Best home Pub I've seen. I'm green (Jamison of course) with envy!

It's awesome!

Nice work. Living in Utah, this type of thing makes a whole lot of sense.

Davíð and I have watched this so many times and thoroughly enjoy this video! This is a place we would love to go to. We are by the beach on the east coast with a speakeasy.

ok I came to YT to find bar ideas as growing up my parents had a rec room (I hate 'man cave' due to my parents BOTH enjoyed it as we entertained family/friends almost every weekend) anywho. Now that I am in MY home, I want to build a bar and get our rec room going. OMG this is absolutely phenomenal! I am literally taking notes to see how I can try to do something similar. Thank you for sharing and getting my ideas going. If I had yours though, I would never see the light of day or any other room in the house. haha, great job!! {JEALOUS}

When I turned my basement into a “Bar” I used the ceiling tiles too. I was too chicken to do what you did but found couple other ways to use them in our design. Nice work!

WOW..I live in Riverton..I will Love see this mancave in person 👏👏

Super cool. Well done.

WOW! Outstanding job Brian! Hope to come visit in person some day :) Slainte

Beautiful! Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful! The only thing I would add is a ventless fireplace, if you can find a spot. Stunning place.

Love it, and also love the Bulmers sign, it's what we drink here in Dublin.

Fabulous place👍🏻

Very nice man! Wish you were closer. Would love to visit your pub. I’m attempting to build a man cave of my own. I must say it is more difficult than I thought.

Dude... Well done!!!🍀🍀🍀👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

One word….AMAZING!

Heck yeah, tobacco pipes, roll top desk=Profound Poetry and Liqoured Verse.(Cheers from the South Carolina Lowcountry)

Awesome!

That is freakin' awesome!!!

Great, greater, greatest home pub I've ever seen. South Africa is a little bit too far away for me to pop in for a Jameson BUT please do have one for me. Double with a dash of spring water. Meanwhile I'll keep on dreaming.

This is amazing!

That is badass! Cheers 🍻

Love the pub man well done.

Epic 👍🏼👏🙌🏽❤️🙏🏼💪🏽🇺🇸

Rarely am i jealous of another man.....but you did it sir lol! Great job, great atmosphere, well deserved.

Cool 👍🍻☘️😲Super Fantastic 👍👍👍

Where’s the Guinness tap man? Lol jk, beautiful pub, great work 👍 🍻

that was fun !

So you must be really popular in the neighborhood. My fiance would love to have a bar in the basement. This is so cool.

I love he’s like come on by…. If I’m ever in the neighbourhood I will.😊

You sir! are slightly brilliant! Madd! but brilliant!

OUT FRICKING STANDING... That is NO crisis, that is awesome.

Great job, man! But you have to add some draft beer in there. Cheers!

Ok this is my dream now, I watch this mid work to remind myself there are better things

Perfect

nailed it fantastic

Amazing! Stopped on your video because I live in Utah and I’m looking at building a bar too!

This would be such a fun time! Never been to Ireland but would love to go there one day. My husband thinks this was the coolest thing ever! -From friendly Utah neighbors a few cities over.

Wow! 🥰

Most amazing thing I’ve seen in a long time, and right here in Spanish Fork!! Can I come over?

Woah! Nicely done good man! Can't wait to come watch a football show over a cheeky pint!

Freakin' sweet! Although Irish Coffee originated in the states, that would be an ideal place to enjoy one. If you need friends in Taylorsville, we'd love to help you manage your inventory...

Congrats on building your own little piece of domestic paradise bro. Too cool! Put in a Guinness Tap and on a 1-10 scale I’d give it an 11. You have some lucky neighbours! Cheers!

life goals

This is so good. I want to do something similar but as you mention it ain't cheap! Although home depot do have a bar for 5k that looks decent

Love it, and it looked like you poured yourself Red Breast. My fav, I'll be right over.

I was a pub manager for years. I sure miss a good pub.

Great job my man please pour me a Bourbon I’m grabbing a cigar . CHEERS and God bless

Wow, impressive! Not my style, but I appreciate your commitment to the pub aesthetic.

I'm so full of jealous rage

Gimmie a shout when youre in Dublin next and we can go for a pint in a few of my favourite pubs.

Nice work! I'm no clothing guru, but donning some vintage traditional irish tweed might add to the mystique of the bar. Firearms on the walls always helps in displaying the manly touch, a little like in the movie 'Khartoum' with General Gordon's man cave. Pics of the old country perhaps? Pic of the The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers from The Great War? I'm seeing an expansion of the bar in your future by about 900 square feet for starters. I would change the pic of Oscar Wilde with a pic of Rory Gallagher tho. Much more manly. Cheers!

Sweet Mother!

Where I live there’s a little bar down the street and they have Jamison on tap

Amazing bar mate. The actual bar makes it for me. Could you provide some more info on where you bought it from, and also the illuminated booze stand please (I know you said Amazon but I'm seeing some pretty high prices for such a small piece of kit!). Slainte!

What a great place!!! But, OK, you can't get the ceiling of the bar down the steps to the basement but you got an entire upright piano down there...WTH??? Thanks for sharing.

That guy gets it.

Wowwww

What ceiling tile did you use from Home Depot? Was trying to find the exact one, it’s awesome!

What times is this place open, I wanna come check it out next time im in town

Awesome man cave. Ok can someone please answer this for me? I live in Houston, TX. We don’t have basements (we do have a tunnel system with lots of shopping in downtown Houston) but no basements under our homes. This is the second basement man cave that I have come across that has full size windows. How does a basement (I’m assuming it’s underground) have full size windows that show outside if it’s underground? Please aware me. I’m serious.

From a Cork Girl, You did a great job ! Ill have to keep an eye out now to see if there is anything i can send You , you need a bit of West Cork in your Pub !

sweet

Fun video! I live here in Spanish Fork - if I were you.. I would deck out that guest room the same way to top it off and make it an AirBNB Experience! "Beverages Included"! What an opportunity to make back the money and generate some side income ;)

Bravo! Where did you purchase the bar?

Really great ! Just one thing , no stand up urinal ,,,, if you put one in that place will be as close to perfect as you can get .

brian your pub is fab put some more hereos of ireland up yeats, joyce, micheal collins ,1916 leaders, bobby sands, francis hughes all the hunger strikers etc

A guiness or kilkinny nitro draft would complete this pub. Otherwise, great job man
