Ha'Penny Bridge Inn in Dublin

Great atmosphere and great live singer.

This is Ireland. Amazing owners and staff... the best vibe in the city... pure traditional Ireland in middle of large city. A must stop on any Dublin vacation.

Real Irish pub with such a typical Irish host.

Steve made our one night in Dublin perfect! So knowledgeable and welcoming! The music was perfect, not too loud so you could still talk but still entertaining.

My favorite pub of many I visited while in Ireland. Steve was great, taught me about whiskey, and it was an instant friendship. I’ll be back for sure! All the way from Wisconsin.

A very nice pub along the quays. Good pint of Guinness. Friendly service. Charming place.

If you haven’t been to The Hapenny Bridge Inn in Dublin, you’re missing out on one of the city’s absolute treasures! This pub is pure magic — buzzing with atmosphere, laughter, and that unbeatable Dublin spirit. Owned by Mick, Sean’s father, this family-run gem has that special warmth and authenticity you just can’t find anywhere else. Right at the heart of it all is Sean, the second-in-command and the ultimate captain of fun and attentiveness. Sean’s sharp wit and hilarious sense of humour make every visit a total blast, and his attentiveness means you always feel genuinely looked after. Whether he’s serving a pint or sharing a joke, Sean’s energy lifts the whole place.

Dan’s warmth and passion add a layer of authenticity that makes The Hapenny Bridge Inn feel like a true slice of Irish culture right in the heart of the city. Massive shoutouts to Goron and Stephen, who are absolute masters behind the bar, pouring perfect pints with ease, and to Fabio, whose vibrant energy keeps the atmosphere electric. But it’s the whole team — every single member of staff — who make The Hapenny Bridge Inn so special. Together they create a welcoming, lively vibe that keeps people coming back time and time again. If you want an unforgettable Dublin pub experience filled with fantastic people, great craic, and a genuine sense of community, this is the place to be. Huge thanks to Mick, Sean, Dan, Goron, Stephen, Fabio, and all the amazing staff for making this pub the heart and soul of Dublin’s nightlife! Sláinte!

A little expensive for what it is but service is always excellent.

Sean was AMAZING! We had such a great time! The food and drinks were good, but the atmosphere and service was great!! I highly recommend.

Visiting from Boston stopped in for a drink, ended up having pizza, food was great our waitstaff was awesome! Traditional Irish pub, comfortable with a home like feel. Bartender Stephen is a legend! Would absolutely recommend going here!
