In second place was our open-ended response, which provided a mixed bag of locations all around the world.

In the US, Philadelphia, Saratoga Springs, Omaha, Savannah, San Francisco, Chicago, and Raleigh were all among some of the best places to get a pint of the black stuff.

Further abroad, countries like Denmark, Germany, Australia, Canada, and Hong Kong made appearances in the responses.

Other Irish places that popped up in responses included Ennis in Co Clare, Abbeyfeale in Co Limerick, Leitrim Village in Co Leitrim, and Annascaul in Co Kerry.

But perhaps the most heartwarming response of where to get the best pint of Guinness? “My home,” said one respondent, adding “Only allow true friends over here. Family that is not fighting with one another. Best of times always remembered and to be made.”
