Badbobs Temple Bar
Two bars downstairs, tons of seated and standing areas to consume beer from their 20+ taps.
Guinness Open Gate
A placeholder entry, I hope to make another trip to enter. Disappointingly, I walked for half an hour to arrive at 9:30pk and security was not allowing any new patrons to enter despite hours online listing close as 10:30pm.
Woolshed Baa and Grill
Was not a brewery at the time I visited in October of 2022. Large indoor venue with limited outdoor seating 13 taps of rather standard beers served making it much like any pub or sports bar in the area.
The Black Sheep
Owned and operated by Galloway Bay Brewing, they have multiple locations in and around Dublin. Around 28 taps of mostly Galway Bay Brewery beers but also some guest taps.
The Temple Bar
Two bars serving from about 12 taps of standard brews. So renowned, the entire area carries the name (and exploits it).
Grogans Castle Lounge
Art for sale lines the walls with lots of seating inside and out and bar stools available. Simple sandwiches and beer. Liquor and 24 taps (including 4 Guinness and two Heineken. Friendly staff.
