Old Music Shop in Dublin

Had afternoon tea here with my parents on father’s day. The atmosphere was very cozy and relaxing. Tables are spaced out so it doesn’t feel crammed. Tea was perfect & lots of flavours to choose from. The food was delicious. Good value for such a lovely afternoon tea. Will definitely be back.

I went here today for high tea with my sister we absolutely loved it. Everything from the food to the tea to the service was excellent. We quit enjoyed it and meet the owner of the hotel Finn. We will absolutely be back and will also stay at the castle hotel as it looks very interesting and has old antique vibes.

The Old Music Shop Restaurant in Dublin derives its name from its location in the former premises of Walton’s Music Shop, a renowned establishment that operated there for over 80 years. Founded in 1924 by Martin Walton—a musician who participated in the 1916 Easter Rising and later served as a bodyguard to Michael Collins—Walton’s became a cornerstone of Irish musical culture. It was home to Ireland’s first music school, the Dublin College of Music, and is remembered for its motto: “If you’re going to sing a song, sing an Irish song” .   Coffee and cafe in the Castle hotel. Don’t be fooled the entrance is through the hotel. They have a great menu with generous portions.
