Raphael Langenscheidt

Best pub in Dublin! Fantastic staff , talkative regulars, and a perfect place for a Guinness . Plus - live music from Victor! Personal favorite.

Cian Mac Mahon

Strong tourist vibes, but they have toasties and live music played by actual musicians rather than tourist focused musicians , so it's good in my book .

SPQR

I can't imagine a better environment to enjoy some pints of Guinness . Love the pre-pour setup that allows them to keep them coming quickly. Amazing live music .

David Coulter

Sunday afternoon session is the best in the city centre. Cozy and a tight squeeze in the winter, but in the beer garden on nice days - bonus for smokers.

Hernan Jaramillo

Great vibe. Where the locals go a cozy maze to have a round of Guinness

Daniel Kengen

Lovely genuine pub , I went to the one on Merrion Row. About eight men sat at the round table at the entrance, jamming away, very cool

Jan van Unnik

My favorite pub in Dublin ! Great blend of locals, visitors, the young, old and traditional music .

Cian O Connor

The most efficient pints in the world! I went to buy my round from our table to the bar and back with the pints in under two minutes!

Sarah Doody

Great live music . Pretty large space so not too crowded . Heated semi outdoor area beside the bar as well .

Brendan Lewis

Great staff , bartenders willing to take the piss out of you, and a never-ending stream of Guinness . I didn't want to leave!

Aidan

Mighty bar and full of life. The staff are very accommodating and there's a guy from Cork who was very entertaining too behind the bar .

Turgut Genc

"imagine what it would be like if one was still allowed to smoke..." and it's like a middle-earth pub , where you can encounter old aged, long bearded men sing old irish songs! Wonderful !

John Daley

I only get to Dublin once every couple of years-But I always stop in O'Donoghue's - it is one of my favorite Pubs in Dublin

Tejas Maniar

Authentic pub . Definitely worth stopping in. Personally I was disappointed that they did a crappy Guinness pour. Was expecting the real deal - 119.5 seconds

Tero Angeria

Great pint of Guinness . Live music played very often, even Sunday afternoons, in the old side.

Damien Byrne

1st. Old bar . 2nd lane way , smoking area . 3rd 2 connecting bars with toilets . Very well priced for that area of the city . Traditional old bar .

Thomas Ruschke

Very cozy with great Irish Live Music , cold pints and great craic.

Andy Ellis

Neighborhood crew playing music , good selection of whiskey , and friendly barkeepers.

An institution! Work nights are the best here in the lane if you don't mind the smoke

Nice on a Sunday afternoon if you can here the session at the front of the old bar .

Great big garden with heaters. Amazing atmosphere.

Great pub that scores high on authenticity . Being quite small, it gets crowded fast.

Great spot for a pint of Guinness , grab one in the alley way.

Full of Americans—first thing I heard when I walked in was a dude mansplaining US politics, followed by two ladies from Ohio

Andrew Gillespie

As well as a tourist spot it's a big after-work venue too

Great craic and Smithwick Pale Ale . Guiness is relatively well .

Guinness !!!! And the staff 😁

Traditional Irish pub. Little booths at the front or keep going to the back for more room. You can order off any of the staff walking around the pub as well. Good for rugby. - Jackie Brown
