Start with a cold Guinness, have one (or a few) of their huge selection of Irish Whiskeys and cap it off with the best Irish Coffee in the world! Love this place.

Great pub. A lot of different rooms to walk around. Always crowded. Takes a while to get a drink because of the amount of patrons. The live music is always good. A Dublin must.

Great food and great atmosphere! Had sandwiches for lunch the Chicken Caesar Sandwich and the Club, both were very good. We had a lot of not so good food on this trip, so I highly recommend this historic bar for food and drink! Very nice waitress and good service. Anthony Bourdain (No Reservations) stopped here first thing when in Dublin.... More

It's touristy, but fun. Lots of different places to sit and enjoy the music, the beer and the food. We enjoyed some Guinness listening to live music...food was simple but pretty good!

This was my favorite spot to relax after sightseeing all day. Good music, friendly staff, oysters and a Smithwicks hit the spot.

We had a really nice lunch experience with friends in this pub. The sandwiches were really great and the waiter was really kind and friendly. The choices of sandwiches and whiskys are huge. The athmosphere of the pub is unique. We arrive at a time without any live music playing but we had a great time !
