Established in 1969 The Baggot Inn has become one of the trendiest and most lively pubs in Dublin. Situated in the city centre we pride ourselves on fantastic service and great atmosphere.

With the unique experience of ‘Pulling your own pint’, trying out our vibrant cocktails or tasting some of our delicious menu it is sure to be a memorable visit.

Few venues can boast such a colourful history and well known patrons. A young Bono was almost turned away from these world famous doors for looking underage, Tracey Chapman launched her career here. Bob Geldof begged for a month before he was given a gig. U2, Christy Moore , Thin Lizzy, Mary Coughlan , The Water-boys and Brush Sheils all performed some of their best gigs in these four walls. Danny O’Donoghue, of The Script also played here with his first band New Town.

When the newly named Baggot Inn first threw open its doors in 1969, everyone felt it. Over the decades, as The Baggot Inn grew and evolved, the atmosphere of the place grew too. It has always been a place that embraced change, a champion of everything new. Today The Baggot Inn stands out from the crowd.

A place steeped in music, history and good humour, right in the heart of Dublin.

Kehoe’s is a traditional Irish Pub. Kehoe’s was first licensed in 1803 when the winds of revolution spread across Western Europe. The premises that you see before you today, were completed towards the end of the 19th century in typical Victorian style. You can view stained glass mahogany doors, old Irish snugs, partitions and the entire homely feel throughout the pub.

The Grocery and Snug Bar
Entering this pub lovers haven, you will be instantly confronted by the austerity and subdued colourings of the Victorian age. When visiting Kehoes take note of the original mahogany drawers, behind the low grocery counter, which once housed rice, tea, coffee, snuffs and other provisions items. In its former Existence this area was frequented by shoppers of the age who could slip in and enjoy a triple in the snug while the proprietor prepared the provisions order. Everything here remains as it was 100 years ago, including the serving hatch and buzzer in the snug.

The Heritage Bar
Passing through the saloon style stained glass mahogany doors, we enter the Heritage bar- Unspoilt, untouched and wearing the patina of its years superbly. Today, we can capture it exactly as it was; only the faces have changed. Plenty of Mahogany partitions to provide seclusion, comfort and privacy. All the advertising signs of yesteryear remain in place. While you are here, order yourself a Guinness and as you wait for it to settle, study the splendid Victorian black bar, sumptuously carved in solid dark grained mahogany woods. Take note of the two little ante-rooms which are always occupied, and be sure to mind your head if you need to journey to the restrooms – Another lost charm of the older pubs

The Literary Pub
If Joyce was to return today, I’ll bet that he would regret missing out on this one. But Joyce’s loss was aptly compensated for in the persons of Kavanagh, Behan and Myles na gCopaleen, who regularly imbibed here when they fell out of favour across the way in McDaid’s. Not that John Kehoe was over0enamoured to see them – as their high spirited style of showmanship ran contrary to the ethics of this strict and conservative house. But they found a more tolerant welcome here in the less quiet interludes of morning when less inebriated and when accompanied by the acceptable faces of Dublin’s literati. The 40’s and 50’s were the great literary days at Kehoes.

Four generation of McGowans have made their mark on this Phibsboro landmark pub, turning it into one of Dublin’s most popular and fun-filled party pubs & restaurants with its brilliant party atmosphere, great food, plenty of special offers and fabulous new nightclub upstairs!

At the beginning of the 20th century the McGowans family were living happily in County Leitrim. Around 1910 the entire family disappeared from the area and resurfaced in Glasgow almost overnight. The reason for this mass exodus is shrouded in mystery but the story goes that the McGowans’ landlord met with an untimely end over a dispute about rent.

Without a penny to their names and unused to the hustle and bustle of city life the future looked tough for the McGowans. John McGowan took a job as a barman and through hard work and shrewd business sense ended up climbing the ladder and owning seven pubs in the Scottish capital by the end of the second world war.

With the end of the war government departments in the United Kingdom had time to concentrate on domestic affairs instead of those on the continent. The revenue commissioners decided to take a look back over the McGowans books, and took a dim view of John’s shrewd business sense. Another mass exodus ensued, this time the family resurfaced in the fair city of Dublin.With the money that was left from the ruin of his Glaswegian tavern empire John McGowan purchased the current pub in 1949. The Oak Room as it was called at the time had a billiards room and was strictly a men only bar. The females were confined to the small snug until they were finally unleashed on the unsuspecting male clientele in 1969. From then on McGowans has been one of the premier spots in Dublin for singles to mingle.

Under the stewardship of Vincent McGowan, the current owner’s father, the pub became a cabaret hotspot with such legends as Dickie Rock and Hugh Corr and their bands filling the venue every night of the week.

Because of its close proximity to Croke Park McGowans has always been a favourite watering hole for thirsty GAA fans wishing to celebrate or drown their sorrows after the day’s matches. Judging by the mix of jerseys filling each taxi at the end of the night McGowan’s can claim a huge part in inter county relations(hips).

With Paddy McGowan senior at the helm and his children slowly taking over the day to day operations the pub is in its fourth generation of family owners and is going from strength to strength.

The landmark pub remains one of the finest establishments in the city.

Dice Bar is located on the corner of Queen Street and Benburb Street in Smithfield.

We’ve been watching over this corner since 3rd of May 2001, the night before the Buena Vista Social Club gig in Smithfield Square.

Although there has been a bar here since 1770, when Dublin was the second biggest city in the empire. On Bow Street we had John Jameson Whiskey, across the river on Victoria Quay, Arthur Guinness was brewing stout.

We also brew our own beer, which is exclusive to the Dice Bar, it’s called Revolution Red or as Mo calls it ROCKIN REVOLUTION RED.

It’s 4.5% ABV, so drop by and have a pint. As of the 8th of July we have added a second beer which is the Sparta Premium Lager 4.5% ABV. (we had been previously importing this beer from Belgium.

Were on the LUAS RED LINE near the Smithfield stop.

Surveying the premises from his majestic throne, one can reflect on an age that is now past but not forgotten in a premises which is now one of Dublin’s most fashionable and sought out watering holes.

One key area which has improved significantly is the tremendous emphasis placed on providing quality food in today’s trade. Davy Byrnes’ excellent pub-food reputation, with seafood as its speciality, is famous throughout Dublin. Visitors at lunch and evening time can savour fresh and smoked salmon, and also crab dishes.

Local businesses around Thomas street have recently come together to highlight the fact  that the area is in decline due to what they call “State sponsored dereliction”, i.e. NAMA is letting buildings fall into disrepair. Link. We’ve always had a fondness for Thomas street, and specifically it’s pubs, so we’re taking it upon ourselves to let you know a bit more about the pubs and tell you why Thomas street could be another Camden street.

Thomas street is a bit of a tech and cultural quarter of the city, with the Digital Hub tucked around the corner from Arthurs, and NCAD on the main street providing a bit of custom to the local bars and cafes. There’s certainly more than just good pubs in the area, but that’s what we know and that’s what we’re going to show you.

For some, Thomas Street is just a bit too far of a walk for their night out. It’s around a ten minute walk from Dame street (if even) and we’re going to give you a few reasons why you should take a short stroll and try something different.

 The Little Green

Definitely a unique addition to the area (and technically on High street), The Little Green is not only a bar, but also a gallery. They host several displays of artwork of different kinds and are a bit of a hub for creativity. We’re constantly teased by their photos of lunchtime specials and it does very much look to be worth a visit for the food alone. There’s always events going on here, including movie nights that revolve around a theme. One of the more recent themes being Wes Anderson movies. They also did a ’12 movies of christmas’ last year. The beer selection is good and it certainly ticks a lot of boxes for trying something different, both in terms of events, but also in atmosphere and decor.

The Clock

The Clock has a good reputation for being a very friendly place. The customers are usually local, but it can attract passers-by. One thing we didn’t know about this pub until recently is that they have an aviary in the beer garden. Not something you’d expect to find in a Dublin pub and probably the only one in town (prove us wrong!). They’re obviously a conscious and community friendly bar, as they offer discounted prices to OAPs. They sell a regular selection on tap and have a few cheaper options for those on a budget.

Bakers

Bakers definitely puts in the effort when it comes to live music, food, and local spirit. Chef Dougie in the kitchen is always cooking up a storm of reasonably priced traditional meals with enough quality to keep people coming back in droves. The have weekly live music, including ballads, trad, and some standard fare. They even do a deal or no deal night if our memory serves correctly. There’s no reason why a place like this should be overlooked by passing tourists. It ticks all the boxes for them in terms of good food, good guinness, friendly staff that Irish pubs are known for, and some toe tapping tunes to keep them entertained.

Tom Kennedys

The last time we were in Kennedys a local man came in to get a bowl of water filled for his dog outside. Did the staff oblige? Of course they did! They’re a Thomas street pub and Thomas street is known for the friendliness of their bar staff. They’re big fans of karaoke in here and you can hear a few renditions of crowd favourites several nights a week. A friend of Publin commented that it’s probably one of the most underrated pints of Guinness in the city. And why not, it’s so close to the Guinness storehouse you can smell the hops. They have an excellent darts setup at the back of the bar, with a well lit raised platform. We’ve heard that for this reason it’s a favourite of some NCAD students, and of course also for their reasonably priced pints.

The Thomas House

Whenever we ask Publiners what they like about Thomas street, the answer is usually resoundingly ‘ The Thomas House! ‘. As a venue they’re very unique and it shows how good they are at booking good bands that people have no problem making the short trip from the centre of town to hang out in this extremely cool dive bar to listen to the tunes and drink some really good international and craft beer. They’re by far the most entertaining pub on twitter simply for the reason that they’re being themselves, and that openness translates to the atmosphere of the pub. Their events range from Punk  gigs to skalectrix nights, from  ska gigs to craft beer tastings. They know their audience and they’re not afraid to try new things. They even have a barber in on Saturdays so you can get a hair cut and have a beer. We’re big fans of the Thomas House and what they’re doing. Long may they reign.

Arthurs

Arthurs is probably the pub closest to the Guinness Storehouse, and as such they have a good relationship with the brewery. The Guinness here is smashing. So much so that a lot of the Guinness staff drink here. The bar is quite large and has a huge open fireplace and also an area for live musicians to set up and get the crowd going. Upstairs in Arthurs they have been getting more into events, with a monthly comedy club ‘ Taking Liberties ‘,  and  a new play called ‘ The Robert Emmet Experience ‘ . The crowd here is a mixture of locals, people working in the area, and tourists who have heard of it or just couldn’t resist popping their heads in on the way back from the storehouse. Like all of the pubs on Thomas Street the staff are fantastic and are born with a sense of hospitality and friendliness.

The Hill Top

 The Hill Top is, from what we know of it, a real locals bar that shares the community spirit of other pubs on the street. They do food, including their much touted Irish stew, and cater with sandwiches for their popular darts and bingo nights. If truth be told, we don’t know too much about the Hill Top and that’s something we’d like to change. Any time we have dropped by to tell them about Publin and ask for their prices they’ve always been obliging and interested in what we do.

We asked Publiners what they thought about the street and here’s what they had to say.

@publinie It’s a mixed atmosphere of eclectic and local. Did 12 pubs along the street one year, great craic in The Clock!

Kielys is one of south Dublin’s oldest establishments and was first granted a licence in 1739. It owes its origins in the 1700s to the original Donnybrook Fair, notorious for intoxication and debauchery!

Since then, however, history has seen the licence and the premises change hands many times over the years. Proprietors came from all walks of life – from the Ascendency classes to the Merchant classes – but for the pub in its current incarnation, the first Kiely arrived at the end of the Second World War in 1945. The present owners are there since 1988.

Renowned for its speed of service and friendly bar staff, Kielys as we know it now is popular with a mixed clientele from across the board – genuine garglers, the rugby set, the post-work crowd – and does a busy lunch trade at the carvery counter. So whether it’s chilling out with a newspaper and brunch at the weekend, meeting friends during the week, or just enjoying the sport, Kielys has something for everyone.

Year on year we deal with the same old road block of pubs having to stop serving alcohol on Good Friday. The law may be a relic from the past, but all is not lost. There are some loopholes that mean there are certain places around the city where you can still be served.

Here is our list of ways to buy alcohol legally in a licensed premises on Good Friday and a listing of pubs and bars open selling food only.

 (Edit: We’re doing further research into finding whether numbers 3 and 7 are accurate)

1) Do as most do and have a house party, purchasing your alcohol on Thursday.

2)Take a flight or a ferry journey, as these are exempt from the intoxicating liquor act.

3)Attend a performance in a licensed theatre.  Perhaps catch a play and a shandy in the Abbey? Some theatre bars may open late for the day that’s in it. I wouldn’t just turn up at the door though, perhaps call ahead to confirm.

4)Go to a horse or greyhound race meeting. Though no doubt synonymous with drunken debauchery in the eyes of those that crafted the law, these venues are allowed to serve alcohol. That does not necessarily mean that they will, but they are allowed to. Again, call ahead.

5)Hotels are allowed to serve alcohol, so long as it is accompanied by a meal. I think it’s fair to say that hotels will usually throw out a few sandwiches to cover their behinds in that regard.

6) Join the military. Military canteens are spared the toil of looking for an open pub on good friday. Firearms and alcohol are obviously a good match.

7)Some clubs are given authorisation to sell alcohol for 6 hours on good friday. I think that’s a long enough period to have an acceptable evening. I don’t mean nightclubs, these can be GAA clubs, working mens associations, or other similar clubs.

8)Train stations. You must have a train ticket to be served. How much does a child fare cost these days? Madigans in Connolly station will be open for the day. As we said, just buy an inter city train ticket.

9) Fibber Magees. Fibber Magees will be the only pub in town with a license to open at midnight. They’ll be opening the doors at 11pm and serving alcohol from 11pm to 2.30am. Happy Days. http://publin.ie/2011/fibber-magees-2/

These are your options as they stand. As we understand, pubs and clubs will not be opening from midnight on good friday. Unfortunately, the gardaí don’t seem to be giving any license for that night.

Some pubs will be open during the day serving food. Most pubs that do a trade in food will probably remain open. These are the pubs that we are sure are opening. This list will be updated in the run up to good friday: Bull and Castle, The Church, O’Donoghue’s Suffolk Street, The Bank on College Green, The Bachelor Inn, Murrays on O’Connell street, Searsons of baggot street, The Brazen Head, Madigans North Earl Street, O’Connell street, Abbey street, Pifko.

Also available at Madigan’s North Earl Street is our Function room, with space for up to 150 guests, with event packages available, it is the ideal City Centre location for any type of event.

Madigan’s Earl Street offers a wide variety of food & beverages available from 10:30am to 11pm. Our new menu will take you from morning to night whether you require a sweet treat, a hearty dinner or a light snack.

After a long hiatus Bad Bobs is back with 5 floors of new decor mixing tradition with modernity. Formerly The Purty Kitchen, Bad Bobs has been newly renovated to take its spot on the main thoroughfare through Temple Bar. Downstairs has a  traditional pub area, while upstairs is a more modern space with the physical atmosphere changing from floor to floor. Bad Bobs is sure to be a popular venue for tourists and Dubliners alike.

I should say that Publin doesn’t think you won’t have a good time in other pubs or that they’re not up to scratch. We’re just suggesting a few places that you might be able to get in the door a bit easier.

While we can give no guarantees that these pubs won’t be rammed with people, they may prove to have a bit more leg room.

Obviously all the main thoroughfares are going to be filled with people (Baggot street, Dame street, O’Connell street, Grafton street), so it’s worth looking for a pub you haven’t tried before that might be on a side street or in areas like Thomas street, the Docklands, a bit further down the quays towards the Pheonix Park, Smithfield, and Portobello. A ten or fifteen minute walk at the start of the day/night could make for a more pleasant experience for the rest of the day.

Arthur’s on Thomas street is the closest pub to the Guinness storehouse and has a good reputation for catering to big crowds on celebratory days like these. They have plenty of standing space downstairs and will be opening their upstairs area as well.

The Thomas House is mecca for those looking for an alternative Paddys Day. They describe themselves as ‘Dublin’s best dive bar’, and they’re not wrong. Open from 3pm. You’ll be treated to some indie, ska, and punk from 7pm. They should have some drinks specials on pitchers of beer.

Darkey Kellys is a pub that, despite being in the heart of town, might escape some of the crowd’s attention due to their location on copper alley off Dame street. They’ll certainly have some live music and will cater for bigger crowds in their beer garden at the back. There’s value for money to be found here as well. Hoegaarden, Franziskaner, and Paulaner pints are only €4.50, and you can get 3 bottles of Erdinger for €10. Not quite Irish beverages, but they get the job done.

Smithfield may avoid some of the large throngs of people staying around after the parade. In this area you have The Cobblestone, Dice bar, Frank Ryans, Walshes, and Mulligans, which are all great pubs. Smithfield will likely attract a lot of tourists, given that they’re in most of the guide books, but there might be standing room outside in the smoking area. Dice bar usually allows people to stand outside so long as they’re not interfering with the Luas, so that means there’s room for overflow. Across the road there’s a pub called McGettigans, which is a more traditional pub, and they’re good value too.

On Parkgate street there’s a row of pubs, some of them quite large. Nancy Hands, Eamonn Reas, and Ryans all have a lot of space between them and this location would suit people coming from Blanchardstown or other areas on the northside.

The Docklands area has a few pubs worth consideration that might escape notice more than others in the area. Brew Dock is likely to attract the craft beer crowd, but they might have less foot traffic than their sister pubs, Against the Grain and The Black Sheep. The Harbourmaster has plenty of standing room inside and can also cater for more on their outdoor terrace by the dock. Lagoona is good value and, being in the heart of the IFSC, might be a bit off the beaten track for some.

Further south places like The Portobello, The Barge, and The Lower Deck all might prove useful. The Barge frequently allows for overflow outside where people can drink their pints along the canal, or even in their beer garden. You’ll have to go inside to get served, but at least outside will give you some fresh air and a bit more leg room. The same could be said of The Lower Deck, although straying too far with their glasses isn’t advisable.

Club Chonradh na Gaeilge is located down a staircase on Harcourt street. As you have to know where this place is and you have to buzz to get in, it might be overlooked by passers by. What better way to celebrate your Irishness than ordering as Gaeilge. Knowledge of the Irish language isn’t essential, but an attempt is appreciated.

Sister pubs Becky Morgans , and The Pimlico Tavern might also prove to be useful spots for those wary of the crowds. Becky Morgans is 5 minutes from the Aviva stadium on Grand Canal Street Lower, while the Pimlico is located close to the Guinness storehouse close to the Liberties.

That’s our pick of pubs that might avoid some of the crowds. We may be right, we may be wrong.  If you find a pub that has space on Paddys day, let us know on facebook or twitter.

Enjoy your day!

Located 5 minutes’ walk from The Aviva Stadium, it is a haven for sporting fans and locals alike.

Serving lunch Monday – Friday, between 10am and 3pm, Becky’s is the perfect place to relax in the afternoons with live racing or wind down after work in our heated smoking area.

Function room available upstairs with hot or cold buffet for your special occasion.

Ideally situated in the main concourse of the station to cater for the commuting public and those working in the heart of the IFSC.

Our modern pub nestled in the beautiful historic Connelly Station is the idea watering hole and eatery for those exploring the Irish country, visiting Dublin or heading home from a hard day’s work.

In 1969, pub historian, Roy Bulson wrote a book about some of the more famous pubs around Ireland, concentrating mainly on Dublin. Publin came upon a copy of this from a family member and found it so interesting we decided to make a map of it showing what those pubs were and what now exists on the site. Where possible we will include photos as it was and some advertisements for these pubs taken from the book.

Some pubs still exist, some have made way for office blocks, changed their names, or are difficult to find accurate details on.

The most popular drinks of the time for the most part sound familiar, others have been long forgotten about.

For each listing we have tried to include details from the author, our own footnotes, images of advertisements or sketches from the book, the drinks served, and of course, what now exists on the sites where these pubs once sat.

We hope you enjoy this snapshot back into the history of Dublin pubs.

For more details on the pubs mentioned or if you have information or images yourself, please email us at publinie@gmail.com

Hacienda on little mary street is a real word of mouth pub. You won’t just happen upon it and you’ll need a guide just to get you there. Until we just gave the address of course…   The pub opens from 8pm and you’ll need to press a buzzer to get in. Whether they let you in is another story. There’s always new bits and bobs going up on the wall, so there’s a real DY pub atmosphere. From what we hear, half the fun of the pub is having a chat with the barman Shay. So if you want to have a pint and don’t want to be seen, maybe try Hacienda.

Perfect for summer evenings, but with a covered, heated terrace for winter use, the stunning, spacious Roof Bar and Terrace is far above the hustle and bustle of Dublin city.

Folding doors pull back to create a single indoor / outdoor space flowing between the terrace and adjoining bar. Here you can relax around the open fire, feast on freshly grilled fish from the barbeque, and hang out on the best smoking terrace in Dublin. Also hireable for events and meetings

Joxer Daly’s is located on Dorset street, a street that provides a straight line of pubs from the top of the road right down into Drumcondra. Less than 5 minutes walk from O’Connell street, this pub retains its old fashioned facade and character, something that distinguishes it from the current trend to modernise pubs. 

1. Dublin has exactly 666 licensed pubs. Seems extra sinful now.

2. Quentin Tarrantino was once refused a pint from the Stag’s Head. He tried to pull the ‘Do you know who I am?’ card, but was rebuffed by the staff because it was after hours and one rule applies to all.

3. The Commitments used several Dublin pubs as filming locations. Including The Hairy Lemon, and their final gig was in Whelan’s.

4. “Good puzzle would be cross Dublin without passing a pub,”. Said by Leopold Bloom, a character in James Joyce’s ‘Ulysses’. Well, turns out it is possible. Rory McCann, a software developer developed an algorithm to plot a route from one canal to another without hitting a pub.


5. The Brazen Head boasts that it is Ireland’s oldest pub, dating all the way back to a coach house on the site in 1198. We think it’s far more likely the site of sailors and scholars getting pissed up with a few cans beside the river, a tradition that lives on to this day.

6. Downey’s pub in Dun Laoighaire has the privilege of being party to a strike by staff that lasted 14 years. A barman was sacked by the owner, and so, the unionised staff went on strike and were promptly sacked. They picketed the pub in shifts daily. The strike attracted international notoriety to the point that when an Irish fishing vessel, helmed by a Dun Laoghaire man, came upon a German U-boat during WW2, the chief officer of the submarine enquired as to whether “the strike was still on in Downey’s”. Unfortunately the pub no longer exists and has been replaced by the Dun Laoghaire shopping centre and cinema. Feel free to carry on the picket.

7. Kavanagh’s pub in Glasnevin (also known as the Gravediggers) has been run by the same family since 1833. The pub gains its knickname from its proximity to the famous Glasnevin graveyard, where the gravediggers used to knock on the back wall of the pub to ask for a pint. They’d then be served through the railings linking the pub and the graveyard.

8. Darky Kelly’s pub isn’t, like many Dublin pubs, named after a founder or owner. It’s named after a woman who was burned at the stake in 1746 for witchcraft. She owned a brothel named the maiden tower, was impregnated by Simon Luttrell, the sheriff of Dublin. The sherriff then did what any honorable man would have done and accused Darky Kelly of witchcraft to escape from his parental duties and the shame of fathering a bastard with a lady of ill repute. That’s how the story goes anyway. She was in actual fact, Dublin’s first serial killer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=IOCOYEPCdIM

9. While not a pub, Coppers is a bit of an institution. In 2011 Copperface Jack’s nightclub made €214,000 from the coat check alone. Possibly why most of the patrons now wear as few items of clothing as possible.

10. Although pubs are not allowed to sell alcohol on good friday, there are certain licenses that allow some establishments to sell alcohol. Here are a few ways to buy a drink on good friday- 1) Take a flight or a ferry, 2) Go to a greyhound or horse race meeting. 3) Go to the theatre. Bars with a theatre license are allowed to sell booze on this day. 4) Go to a hotel. So long as they serve you food, they can sell you booze. They might just throw some mouldy sandwiches at you to get away with it. 5) Join the military. Barracks are allowed to sell alcohol. 6) Go to a rugby match. What could be more thrilling than seeing Gustonians C team vs Old Horse C Team battle it out with some legally sold liquor. 7) Buy an intercity train ticket. Pubs in train stations can sell alcohol. Think of your one way ticket to Drogheda as the entrance fee.

11. The Asterix the Gaul appreciation society meet in The Long Hall on George’s street. You can always find a few copies behind the bar. Wild Boar sold separately.

12. Although the Dawson Lounge on Dawson street is considered the smallest pub in Dublin, it does have a semantic rival. Lotts Cafe bar has a snug that they consider “The smallest ‘bar’ in Dublin”. Who gets in the guide books then?

13. The best snug in Ireland? 110 snugs battled it out, but Toner’s on Baggot street are the reigning champions.

14. The most potent beer we’ve been able to find on sale in the city is Samichlaus (14%), an Austrian beer served in Against the Grain, Brew Dock, and The Black Sheep. Find something with a higher alcohol content? Prove us wrong.

EDIT: Boy were we wrong on that! The Black Sheep stocks Brew Dog’s ‘Sink the Bismark‘, which stands at 41% and costs €80 for a 330cl bottle.

15. Gin fan? The Gin Palace on Abbey street has the biggest selection of gin in Dublin. They have 59 different types of gin in stock at all times……and some tonic too.

16. Dublin has one pub for every 1906 people (was 700 in 1924), most of whom cram in on Paddy’s day. Republicans usually round that number up by 10 though for national pride symmetry.

17. In October 1922, very soon after national independence, the Dáil (Irish parliament) set about to tackle the defining issue of the time…..the price of the pint in Dublin. After the christmas recess of 1923, the very first question of the very first session was about the price of a pint. Back then the price was 100 times less than it is now.

18. A scene from Sergio Leone’s ‘A Fistful of Dynamite was filmed in Toner’s. There’s a photo of him on the wall holding a rifle in the pub.

19. As of 2006, Dublin’s longest serving barman was Joe Casey, who worked/works at the Windjammer on Townsend street and has worked there since 1954. We called to see if Joe was still tending bar, but nobody picked up.

20. Who has the largest selection of whiskey in Dublin? For our money it has to be The Temple Bar. Honorable mentions to the Palace and Bowes Lounge.

21. It’s probably a four way split for the pub with the most beers on tap, and guess what? They’re all craft beer pubs. Against the Grain, Brew Dock, and The Black Sheep all have 23 craft beers on tap, making it difficult to sample every brew in the house. They also boast 100 bottled beers from around the world. The same can all be said of L.Mulligan Grocer in Stoneybatter.

22. The cheapest pint of Guinness in the city is in Dicey Reilly’s Garden on Tuesday nights at €2.00. You’d do well to find better than that.

23. The Hole in the Wall on Blackhorse Avenue is generally regarded as the longest pub in Dublin. It’s not a freak of architecture or anything, it’s just the longest one we’ve got.

24. Johnny Foxes in the Dublin mountains is generally regarded as the highest pub in Ireland, but they’ve had some competition. Pubs in Kerry, Roundwood, and Derry have all laid claim to the title. The pub in Derry is struck off because it it not in the ‘state of Ireland’. The pub in Kerry haven’t pursued the claim as much as Johnny Foxes and aren’t open all day, every day. So they might be higher, but just aren’t bothered advertising it. The pub in roundwood make their claim as the highest pub in the ‘highest village’. Now, that’s a bit pedantic. We’re not convinced that Johnny’s is definitely the highest, but they certainly have a strong claim. Let the battle rage on.

25. 114 hours and 20 minutes. That’s how long it took Dave Browne to break the Guinness world record for longest continuous guitar playing session in The Temple Bar pub. He played 1,372 songs in total, and if he’s anything like other Dublin cover musicians, at least 200 of those were ‘Galway Girl‘.

The 26th unofficial fact is that Publin lists over 200 pubs and over 500 drinks specials. Enjoy and tell your friends!
