Dublin Literary Pubs

Dubliners are famed for their storytelling and it’s no surprise that many a tale has been told by a worn bar counter. Dublin’s pubs have set the scene for many of our greatest literary glories too with Leopold Bloom of Ulysses frequenting one or two of the city’s finest establishments.

The wonderful thing about Dublin pubs though is that the stool you’re sitting on, or the snug you’re snuggled in could well have been used by any one of our great literary heroes. Imagine Beckett tracing out the set design for a play or Flann O’Brien chuckling to himself at a freshly written joke.

So draw up a stool and be part of the story and who knows – that person you’re sharing a Guinness with might just be Dublin’s very next literary star.
