About The Porterhouse
Nestled on Nassau Street, right by Trinity College in the Grafton Street area, The Porterhouse is a craft beer haven brewed in their own Glasnevin microbrewery. This isn't your average pub, it's a celebration of Irish brewing heritage with over 100 bottled beers from around the world, signature cocktails, and food from local producers. Picture the hoppy aroma wafting from fresh pours of their award-winning Porterhouse Oyster Stout, paired with the lively chatter of students and shoppers spilling over from Grafton Street. As a Dublin aficionado, I rate it top for beer lovers seeking the best pubs in Grafton Street Dublin. The recent addition of a heated beer garden in Adam Court laneway makes it a year-round gem, blending urban cool with traditional warmth.
What to Expect
Dive into brews like the fruity Wrasslers XXXX Ale or rich Dublin Porter. The menu shines with gastropub fare: fish and chips, charcuterie boards, and veggie options sourced locally. Multi-level seating offers bar stools for solo pints or booths for groups. Outdoor garden heats up in winter, perfect for al fresco sipping amid laneway charm. Events like tastings and live music keep the vibe dynamic.
