I find the Guinness experience a little boring to be quite honest, but the view from the bar at the end is great and unrivalled. Do the tour quickly and then head up for your free pint!

Drinks & Nightlife
This is one of my favourite pubs in Dublin - it's tiny, full of locals, close to IMMA and the Guinness alays tastes good. Great in summer for outside pints or winter by the fire.

This quiet bar, on the 2nd floor of a weirdly old/odd/aul fella hotel is quaint in all the best ways. Decent wifi too. Basically it looks like a classy library, but with Guinness.

Food Scene
Run by the wonderfully charming Ray (a friend of mine) this place serves great food all day. The cakes are the main reason for stopping by. It's a walk, but it's worth it.

Hands down one of the best coffee places in Dublin. I fully admit to being a coffee snob after living in Melbourne, so take it from me - this place is tough to beat.
