Tucked away on a lane behind IMMA, you’d practically need Google Maps to find it. So perhaps that’s why it’s rarely mentioned in the same breath as Dublin’s other venerable pubs – the Gravediggers, Mulligans, the Long Hall. But the Royal Oak has charm to match any of them.

Old House converted to bar. Very cosy and friendly.

This is a tiny little pub, hidden on Kilmainham Lane. Pop in for a quite pint of Guinness after sightseeing all day. Lovely spot.

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.

The Old Royal Oak is a bit of a hidden gem in Dublin's fair city. It's not far from Kilmainham Jail and adjacent to the Royal Hospital. Very small and intimate. A great pint at a great price. The entire pub nests inside just one room woven with charm.
