Best Pubs in Dublin
Dublin's pubs are the soul of the city, legendary spots where creamy pints of Guinness flow alongside live trad sessions, tall tales, and the warmest of welcomes. From Victorian-era beauties like The Palace Bar on Fleet Street to hidden gems such as John Kavanagh (The Gravediggers) in Glasnevin, each pour comes with centuries of history and Irish craic. Whether you're after a bustling Temple Bar sing-along or a quiet corner in a local like Neary's on Chatham Street, our guide uncovers the best pubs in Dublin for every mood.
