Bar

👍👍 This is one of the best run bars I’ve been in recently. From the moment I walked in I knew everything was gonna be perfect. The bar itself is massive but it has a very warm welcoming atmosphere. There’s a fire in the middle of the bar which heats up the entire room. It’s cozy . As a barman myself I... People often mention staff, good, Great, great, friendly, atmosphere,

    This is one of the best run bars I’ve been in recently. From the moment I walked in I knew everything was gonna be perfect. The bar itself is massive but it has a very warm welcoming atmosphere. There’s a fire in the middle of the bar which heats up the entire room. It’s cozy . As a barman myself I was impressed with the pints of Guinness. They looked good but I was on a break so I had to settle for a coffee. The bar was busy when I arrived but the two barmen were flying around. The bar itself is well stocked with every spirit known to man. I especially liked their whiskey selection. Before leaving I checked the toilets . I wasn’t surprised. Spotless. The urinals were the sustainable waterless ones which save on water. There solar panels on the front of the building so it’s a good bet that these lads have a sustainability plan. Ten out of ten lads .

    I went there on St. Stephen's Day with my two sons for a Christmas drink, only to be denied entry by the doorman who said it was full. That was fine, except at least 5 people, who were obviously better known to him, were allowed to enter. This was at about 1PM , so I found it difficult to accept that this huge bar was completely "full" . It was an embarrassing situation, and quite frankly an outdated and unacceptable attitude .

    Excellent neighborhood pub. There are several different large areas to sit, and even a beer garden. The staff are very friendly and attentive. The day I was there, they had a guy playing guitar and the local old fellas would get up and sing a song - with great enthusiasm! Lots of fun. That's Jack Nicholson in the photos.

    Staying near the airport and wanted somewhere that wasn't a soulless hotel bar. This ticked all the boxes. Great atmosphere, super friendly service and a fantastic pint.

    Went on a Saturday night and didn't enjoy the atmosphere at all. Too many groups of young lads, bar staff escorting people out, music was ridiculously loud.

    Really nice place. Drink and staff were excellent. Very reasonable but music was too loud. Hard to have a conversation hence the 4 stars

  • 5/5 Phil B. 1 year ago on Google
    A good aul fashion Dublin pub. Fantastic staff, I honestly mean that. They connect with everyone ordering. All the locals love it. Hope I'm not giving too much away. A hidden gem ✌️

  • 4/5 Joe K. 9 months ago on Google
    I had a few drinks in the beer garden and it was very relaxed and well decorated. The outdoor space is large but only served by one young girl who did her best. Need at least one more. Inside the pub was busy with a good atmosphere. Drinks were reasonably priced and overall the pub is a good place to visit if you are around the area. Please like 👍 and share

👍👍 Fantastic indoor entertainment venue in Dublin that holds up to 13,000 people. It's really well marshalled and queueing is kept to a minimum for drinks, food, merchandise and toilets. If you find the ground floor queues start to grow, just go upstairs for smaller queues. There's great sound and visi...
