Oliver St John Gogarty in Dublin

An institution of Temple bar, a must visit location for at least one pint of black 😎🎶👍

After a few drinks in the noisy but cozy bar with live music, we went to the restaurant upstairs. There was live music there too. Very nice and atmospheric, but much too loud. Too loud to understand each other during the meal. The waiter was understanding and turned down the volume and showed us to a spot in the smoking area, where it was indeed wonderfully quiet, but of course not a good solution. In the end, we stayed and had a pretty good meal.

Food was tasteless and real disappointment but atmosphere was great. Good bar for drinks but you should eat somewhere else.

Great bar, right in Temple Bar, with live music and a great atmosphere. You can come at any time of day and there always be people chatting and having fun. Prices are what you expect for Temple bar, but this place has great service.

My first real Irish Pub experience with live music. Absolutely incredible. I must return soon!

Great vibe in here with the music that was on... woukd recommend.

A very atmospheric, cool pub. You can taste 40 different types of draft beer, listen to original live Irish music, and have a delicious meal on the second floor.

Was such a fantastic experience. Coming from Australia. Met some lovely people. We will be back next year xx

I very much enjoyed the live music and dancing as well as the lively atmosphere. In addition to that, I ended up in this establishment by happenstance because I needed a local to confirm an Irish translation of a verse I wanted tattooed and that person happened to be Connor (the manager, or at least I thought he was the manager). What I love— Connor could have just easily dismissed my request because (a) it’s absurd and (b) it was a busy evening for them. BUT he was sooooo kind and took time to help me with the correct translation. Isn’t that just the most wonderful thing a human could do to a stranger?! It might be such a small thing, but small things matter to me. A true act of kindness. So I decided I found the perfect place to enjoy my Guinness after the tattoo. And it was wonderful! Thank you Connor and staff!

So many mussels!! So worth it. Plus, there’s live trad music every night. Great stop!!
