There’s a great atmosphere in this 16th-century inn, which makes the most of its antique features, large log fires and traditional Irish evenings.
-
This pub, in the heart of Viking Dublin, is the oldest in the city. The building dates from the 1750s, but some believe there has been a tavern on this site since before the Norman invasion in 1172. The courtyard is a lovely spot for trying out one of the best pints of Guinness in Dublin and listening to traditional music.

If you tried to break for the border in this chain bar, you’d not get very far – on a Friday or Saturday night the crowds’ gravity is sure to hold you in. Even in a club this size there are still queues and often standing room only. But then this is still a top spot and considered by many the place in town to be.
-
Recently reopened after a complete revamp, this is a trendy place in a central location. It attracts a regular young crowd keen on people-watching, as well as the after-workers. A good alternative to the traditional Dublin pub.
-
This popular nightclub is located at the Burlington Hotel and attracts an older business crowd eager to unwind. The tourists from the Burlington add to the odd atmosphere, to make a club with many layers and cultures to appreciate.
-
A Temple Bar institution, at the Blooms Hotel. There’s a VIP lounge of some repute, great music and an interesting laser light system to add to the fun.
-
This old village inn is named after the family that own Slane Castle and most of the surrounding area. Originally a coaching inn, it is now also a hotel. Good food and a comfortable place to drink.
-
A friendly pub immortalized by James Joyce in his book Ulysses . Seafood and traditional Irish fare accompany the drink.
-
This building feels its age of 130 years, although Ned Doheny and Tom Nesbitt only set up the pub in the 1960s. Inside, a cosy snug and glass-panelled partitions create a perfect atmosphere for the lawyers, politicians and journalists who like to come here.
-
A cheerful café in the basement of this art gallery, with painted tables and a light, bright atmosphere (see Kilmainham Gaol and Hospital).
