Our first pub is one of only two pubs in the Temple Bar area that aren't full of tourists. A great traditional Irish music pub with an impressive beer and whiskey selection, and great staff to boot! If you haven't dined, this first stop is a great place to have a meal. Just tell us in advance so we can reserve a table!
