GetPint tracks live pint prices across pubs in every county, from Dublin and Cork to Galway, Limerick, Belfast and Derry. PintWatch Ireland is the data index behind the site: it collects Guinness prices, beer prices, and pub-reported drink prices where available.
Ireland talks about the price of a pint the way other countries talk about petrol or rent. It's a shorthand for the cost of a night out, a measure of a town's value, and a reliable starting point for an argument at any bar. Yet official tracking of pint prices by the Central Statistics Office stopped in 2011, leaving people with a patchwork of anecdotes and news stories instead of data.
GetPint exists to close that gap. We think what you pay for a pint should be easy to look up, easy to compare, and easy to question. The index is built in the open, updated by the community, and free for anyone to use.
There are two streams feeding every pub page:
Every price on GetPint carries a date so you can judge how fresh it is. Prices older than a few months are faded out of averages, and obvious outliers are flagged for review rather than silently deleted.
A pint price is the reported price for a standard pint served in a pub, usually Guinness, stout, lager, ale, or another draught beer. Guinness is one of the most commonly reported drinks, but GetPint is designed to track Irish pub prices more broadly as submissions grow. We do not include nitro cans, half pints, or promotional prices unless noted.
Some pint price projects capture a one-off snapshot. GetPint is designed to stay fresh through community updates, public sources, and ongoing corrections. Every price is dated, every average is recalculated on rebuild, and stale data is clearly labelled. That is the difference between a snapshot and a living index.
GetPint is an independent, community-run project. We are locals, builders, and publicans who wanted a single, reliable place to see what a pint actually costs around the country. The code, the data model, and the editorial choices are all ours. Mistakes are ours too, so if you spot one, tell us.
If you run a pub and want your listing to be accurate, you can claim it and keep the price updated yourself. Clear, honest pricing tends to bring customers in, not drive them away. We are always happy to correct a listing, add a new house stout, or fix a misspelled name.
