John Kavanagh The Gravediggers

The Best Restaurants In Dublin - Dublin - The Infatuation

"There are over 700 pubs in Dublin, but Gravediggers may well be our favourite. It’s an old den attached to a cemetery that’s been around since 1833. The Kavanagh family still own it and work behind the bar, with Ciaran on the kitchen side of the pub serving up a superb coddle. That dining room is a friendly and bric-a-brac space, if fairly standard, but the bar is something else entirely. In the evening it feels like somewhere highwaymen would discuss their spoils, with a line of creamy Guinnesses constantly being rested before serving, and all kinds of dark nooks and crannies to tell stories in." - daisy meager, jake missing, ciera velarde
