Self-described "haven of writers and readers, drink, music and good company." Window display with quotations from famous writers, books, and maps. Downstairs at the bar, pictures of writers decorate the walls. Glass sconces, dark walls, basement-like feel, older clientele, and people drinking coffee as much as beer. Won the James Joyce pub award for being an authentic Dublin pub. Next to St. Stephens Green. Live jazz or rhythm & blues until late.
