The Palace Bar

It's been a long while (years)since I've stumbled upon this traditional Irish pub. The atmosphere was quite, as it was not busy... everything I would have imagined. what was very cool was the mirror partitions that separated the bar stools & just sitting between them taking in the history with a pint.. The bartender that served me is still in some of the current photo's I see on line, so judging from that I'm guessing the palace bar is very while grounded with tradition. I wouldn't miss this place if I were you.

The best pub in the Temple bar area by a country mile. It's bit pricey, but not as bad as some of the main Temple Bar spots and much better. Pub is 200 years old, there's the downstairs bar with a whiskey saloon bar upstairs. 3 different types of stouts on tap. Any would be up there with being the best stout in Temple Bar. They do Guinness and Beamish, and they do their own branded stout. "Changing Times Brewery Clockwork stout," which is very good indeed. They do a lager and IPA, but why bother with that when there's sweet, sublime stout? I stuck with the Clockwork stout when I started drinking it, and I'm normally a Guinness man through and through, make of that what you will. I've been drinking here 30 odd years, and it's always great craic with tourists and locals feeding the footfall for the pub. Visit upstairs and downstairs for the different vibes, though, be advised upstairs is only accessible by a long set of stairs. No food, a gastropub it is not. Again, in my opinion, probably the best pub in the Temple Bar area.

Really cool pub. Hard to soak in all the architectural details especially the exterior. Had been on my hit list since my last visit a few years ago and didn't disappoint. I visited just before final orders on a Tuesday in January. Still busy and a convivial atmosphere. Make sure to check out the back room.

As a writer I couldn’t resist a visit to such a historic spot. Really nice pub filled with character and charming well preserved decor.

This iconic and historical pub is famous for its beautiful facade and interior. It offers great customer service and a huge variety of beers. We had several options recommended by the bartender, and all of them were good and at a fair price. It can become really crowded and hard to get a table at times.

A great pub. We popped in for a whiskey tasting that was held upstairs. Lovely pint with great staff beforehand. it's a gorgeous pub with a great vibe. If you like whiskey they've probably got every whiskey in Ireland plus their own to boot. 👍

Probably 4.5 stars to be honest. Historic club in the edge of Temple Bar that has resisted becoming a Temple Bar trap. Good mix of locals and tourists, “lounge” to the back has the most incredible ceiling. Great service from staff serving great pints!

Sit outside and the people watching is unbeatable. Saw some incredible shit in 30 minutes. Nice man took my photo. Bartender needs a gin and tonic and a hand job to cheer up.
