A plane ticket to Ireland is prohibitively expensive, and the flight attendant won’t let you drink, sing, or knit her dog an Aran sweater. Fast-forward to the fun part of visiting Ireland with today's Groupon: for $20, you get $40 worth of pub fare and drinks at Ceili's Irish Pub & Restaurant on Eighth Avenue Southwest and Macleod Trail Southwest.

Ceili's Irish Pub & Restaurant boasts two levels of revelry-inducing real estate outfitted with more than 400 seats from which patrons can enjoy live music, authentic Irish flavours, and frothy beverages. Ceili's preps palates with a hearty drink menu of premium domestic drafts ($6.75) and imported pours including Irish favourites such as Guinness and Harp, each served in a proper drinking glass to evoke the beer's true flavour quality and sweating behaviours ($7.75+).

With thirst tamed, patrons sate hunger spikes with hearty pub fare off the classic, Irish-infused pub menu. Raise a plate of haddock 'n' chips to toast the old country ($10.75 for a half order, $16.75 for a full), or paint a gravy limerick onto a plate of bangers and mash ($14.50). Souls longing for comfort can order the new england clam chowder ($5 side, $10 full) to enjoy in the glow of the warm wood floors, sport-heralding flat-screens, or bioluminescent friends.
