Favourite Pubs

Here are some of our TOP pubs. From Snugs, to Barstaff, every pub has a unique was of making it into our top lists...

  • Experiences and the people make all the difference, here are a few spots that instantly stand out to me!

  • Liberty Belle, Dublin

    Instantly welcomed by the friendliest lady who made sure we had the best time. We also got a Toastie / Pint combo deal for only 8 EURO... best deal in DUBLIN.

  • Toners, Dublin

    The snug here you need to just experience for yourself! on a nice sunny day, the beer garden is worth checking out too!

  • Hapenny Bridge Inn, Dublin

    The best lads working here. Ask for Sean when you go! Upstairs they always have things going on from live music to comedy sets!

  • The Swan Bar, Dublin

    Chatted it up with the owner, who let me sample all the Clockworks types of beer. The Lager was one of the bests i've had.

  • The Bloody Stream, Howth

    The nicest staff! Was treated to an absolute feast of fish, scampi, chowder. Haven't stopped thinking about it since!

  • Noonans, Toronto

    Nicest owner, the best Trad music in Toronto, and most authentic Irish pub in probably Canada!

  • Johns Bar, Dublin

    The workers here are absolute legends! Great spot to hangout for a few. Fast food burger joint inside as well!

John Fallon's "The Capstan Bar"

A historic Dublin pub dating back to 1619. Nestled in the heart of the Liberties.

Fallons is very small, old, traditional, locals bar. There's no menu or kitchen BUT there's a toaster behind the bar that the barman can put you on a toastie to serve up with your perfect pint!

Toners - Dublin

Established in 1734,Toners Pubis one ofDublin's oldest and most famous Pubs. “The best pint of Guinness in Dublin” – Rory Guinness.

The Harbour Bar, Bray

One of the best pints I had in Ireland. The Harbour Bar is also one of Bray's top spots for live music with traditional and acoustic sessions Weds-Sundays.

Summit Inn

Highly recommend taking the Dart from Dublin to Howth, and doing the cliff walk. After stop in at the Summit for a well deserved post hike pint!
