TAFKARM Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Going tomorrow for a day/night and have done zero research. Suggestions on on what to see / do and somewhere nice to eat... Quote
Kingster Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Yes. You must go to Trinity and see the Long Room. Takes my breath away every time. Food and atmosphere at the Café en Seine is superb. The Literary Pub Crawl is pretty good if you like your Becket. 2 Quote

Terry Everall Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 From memory taxis from the airport are very expensive Quote
Rednop1 Posted July 17, 2019 Posted July 17, 2019 Everything in Dublin is expensive Hotels,Guinness,taxis But the craic is amazing get yourself down temple bar some quality bars and everybody is up for a laugh 1 Quote
Stuart Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 There's a good express bus service from the airport. 12 euro return I think 1 Quote
Andrew O Byrne White - Ireland AO Posted July 18, 2019 Posted July 18, 2019 If you like your alcohol, the Guinness factory tour and the old Jameson Distillery tour are well worth the visit. Definitely book those in advance though or you'll pay way more and queue for ages. Temple bar is tourist town - I'd recommend avoiding the centre of it for anything more than a walk through. If you want a decent pint in a real Irish pub, I'd recommend the Stag's head. Lovely place but usually fairly busy. Can't remember if they do food, but there's no shortage of places in the area to eat. Quote
TAFKARM Posted July 18, 2019 Author Posted July 18, 2019 Just nearly stood in some craic but thankfully avoided it. Ended up booking Sole on south William street which has just won European seafood restaurant of the year so hopefully will be good! 1 Quote
