Doyles – 9 College Street, Dublin 2

Doyle’s is an established licensed premises since 1880 and is situated on the corner of College Street and D’Olier Street, across the street from Trinity College. With their proximity to Trinity College it’s no surprise they have had a great relationship with students over the years, both informally and otherwise. This 19th-century bar with bare brick walls and stripped wood floors serves pub grub classics.

Doyle’s is a fan favourite for tourists and locals alike and is internationally known for its friendly staff and traditional Irish feel. This is why it’s on our list of pubs to visit on Paddy’s Day

Mulligan & Haines – 32 Dame Street, Dublin 2

Mulligan & Haines creates a unique connection between the past and the present as it draws inspiration from Chapter 10 of Joyces’ Ulysses – a passage in which antagonist Buck Mulligan and his companion Haines entered this once Dublin Bread Company and enjoyed some tasty fare whilst engaging in a humorous exchange.

Now completely refurbished, uniting the contemporary with the traditional, Mulligan & Haines aims to offer patrons the very best sandwiches and baked goods in the city in a bid to pay homage to our origins – all washed down with delicious craft beers and cocktails.
