• Irish • Grafton Street

Booked 12 times today

Dublin's most famous pub, certainly in a literary sense, with its Joycean associations. Always classy and fashionable. It's the original Dublin gastropub at over 100 years old.Anybody who is familiar with Dublin pub food will be aware of Davy Byrne’s food reputation, in which seafood is the speciality.If you visit the premises at lunchtime and evening time, you will witness the huge trade which is done in fresh Seafood, Wagyu Burgers and pub classics like Fish & Chips. There is also a full range of Salads and Sandwiches to compliment these and, as often as not, you can enjoy Oysters and Guinness.The classic Gorgonzola sandwich with a glass of Burgundy as mentioned in Ulysses is available every day.Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate strollers/buggies indoors at Davy Byrnes but subject to availability, we can at our outside terraced area. We apologize for any inconvenience.

As a local Dubliner I’d actually never been here before. It took a group of Americans coming over to result in me finally going. And 1000% cannot recommend it enough. Lovely food, really nice presentation, fantastic service (the waiter we had who I unfortunately can’t remember his name but he was so helpful with one of our party who has a bad dairy allergy). I’ll definitely be back. Loved it

I did say to our waitress that both my husband and I were cold in the restaurant. I would have had another glass of wine and my husband a glass of red wine , but we decided not to as it was too chilly.
