Davy Byrnes


Just off Grafton Street, Davy Byrnes is one of Dublin's most famous pubs - references in Joyce's Ulysses mean it is very much on the tourist circuit. Despite all this fame it remains a genuine, well-run place and is equally popular with Dubliners, who find it a handy meeting place.

But a modern gastro-pub this is not - the bar food offered is quite traditional, providing 'a good feed' at reasonable prices. Irish stew is the house speciality and oysters with brown bread & butter, beef & Guinness pie and deep-fried plaice with tartare sauce are all typical, and there's always a list of daily specials like sautéed lambs liver with bacon & mushroom sauce, pheasant in season - and, in deference to the Joycean connections, there's also a Bloomsday Special (gorgonzola and burgundy).

Half a dozen wines are available by the glass, and about twice that number by the bottle.

Not suitable for children under 7. Outside eating area. Bar food served daily, 12.30-9 (winter to 5). House wine €17.95. Eoin Scott - Irish roots, trad and contemporary songs 9-11pm Sun-Tue. Closed 25-26 Dec & Good Fri. MasterCard, Visa, Laser.
