The crowd really gets into the uplifting Irish songs, and there’s a huge choice of beers and spirits. It’s an excellent pub for a drink and live music, with just the right atmosphere. This is what you hope to find in a place like this, and it doesn’t disappoint. A must!

I spent a month in Dublin for an Erasmus internship and made memories for life. Going to Gogarty’s was one of the highlights. It’s cosy and warm, with great live music and a lovely, relaxed atmosphere. One downside is the price: more than €10 for a pint in Temple Bar is far too much. Even in Belgium, where it’s imported, it costs less. Still, it’s a must-visit in Dublin! 🇮🇪

The prices are very touristy, but a pint or two is worth it for the experience. Food of the same kind is available for half the price just outside Temple Bar. Inside, it’s colourful and vintage, with beautiful live music and a good range of local beers. Quite possibly the most authentic, or stereotypical, Irish bar in the area.

Such a fun place! The food was amazing and the live music was a blast. It gets livelier as the night goes on 😅.

Dec 2025. We had lunch on a Wednesday and both ordered the Irish Breakfast. What a plateful, and absolutely delicious. Drinks were brought to the table with slick service, and the live music was great. Fantastic place, I’d recommend it to anyone visiting Dublin.
