Best places: Pubs in Blackrock-Central DED 1986, Ireland

Pints & free traditional Irish music every night in a rough-’round-the-edges lounge.

👍👍 Really good Irish pub! The staff was kind and the food waiting time was fast. The beef stew was delish and they serve a generous portion. The classic beef burger was amazing! Accompanied the food with a high quality Irish beer. Why not enjoy a live music there as well?!

Old-school pub dating from from 1833 with a weathered wooden bar, plus home-cooked meals.

👍👍 The view and the food are just perfect! But make sure it’s a sunny day.

👍👍 Another historic Dublin pub. It's like stepping back into the past. Always in top 3 for a great pint of Guinness. A must visit if you're in town. Now number 1 for Guinness. Still one of the best pints around. Enjoy

👍👍 Proper pub serving top notch Guinness - you won’t find a better pint. Great atmosphere too.

👍👍 A true neighborhood pub, we were probably the only tourists there. Went for one drink and ended up staying about 4 hours. Music started at 9:30. Well done and a good sound level for a fine experience and did not drown out conversation. Probably good to get there during the quieter time of 19:00 t...

Irish & international craft beer in a legendary venue with Temple Bar's only licensed garden.

👍👍 What a fantastic spot! The staff are incredibly friendly and service is to a really high standard. The pub is supper cozy with a warm interior. They do not serve food here but they do allow you to order food in. All round probably the best pub in Dun Laoghaire

👍👍 Fab spot for a pint. Love the GAA and Irish memorabilia decorating the place. Has a projector for games. Pints are lovely, will be coming back again!

👍👍 Beef and Guinness pie was my goal, as my local pub that served this dish in Arizona closed last year. Sheehan’s version has mashed potatoes on the top rather than the puff pastry but it was delicious! Lots of meat with a yummy gravy. My picky daughter loved the grilled cheese and my husband’s chicke...

👍👍 Very exciting attitude from the stuff, good food, great portions, reasonable prices for Dublin.

👍 Great Pub! Food was excellent and Chris the bartender was so, so friendly. Gave us great advice on things to do and see. Very knowledgeable of Dublin and it’s history and just overall great to chat with. Invited us to go behind the bar and pour a pint!

👍👍 I've been going here since I was 18 years old, as I used to live right behind it. That was a few years ago and I've since moved further away, I still come to visit! And I always order the garlic chilli prawns and no. 6 pizza, always a blueberry Collins cocktail for dessert! And it never fails. I've...
