Dublin's pubs, by area

Dublin has hundreds of pubs and they are not interchangeable. A few streets in the centre are built for visitors; the rest of the city drinks in local rooms that rarely make the lists. This directory covers both, grouped by postal district and village, with cocktail bars and wine bars alongside the traditional pubs.

Before you go

  • Opening hours here are from map data; Sunday and bank-holiday hours vary, so check the pub's own page.
  • Live music and food are mentioned in the write-up only where the pub says so on its own site.
  • Group bookings and private rooms are best arranged directly with the pub. We link to the business, not to a booking service.
