if you want to have the traditional irish pub experience then this is the right place! it is a cozy location although it is very big, has great food, drinks and music. the live music is fantastic, really makes you want to sing along and dance! waiters areniceand charismatic. in a 5 day trip to dublin i went twice to this place. the last night i had dinner there and tried the soup of the day which was very tasty and makes just an awesome combination with the brown bread! also ate a goat cheese salad and an irish stew which were very good. i definitely recommend this place to eat, drink, dance and have fun!
