The Lord Edward - Dublin

This place is at the end of the block from our hotel and so we were excited that we could come here and have a drink before bedtime. BTW, it's 9:00 PM and still light out here. No Lord Edward has nothing to do with this but had to vent. Super tired after a 22 hour trip with little to no sleep [on the plane] and want to sleep but it's light outside, what gives? So, there was a little confusion because prior to us coming we had read that Lord Edwards was closed. Apparently only the restaurant. They did have some advertising for a grilled toast but they did not have any. I wanted to go to the famous Fish and Chips place next door but was told that the owner doesn't allow that. Doesn't make sense since they don't have anything but we still had a great time. The boys and I are easy but the girls really liked the ginger ale and Jameson. They get a little bottle of ginger ale which allows them to mix it to strength. Service was great and we will probably be back before we leave Thursday.... probably every night.

Stopped in at while walking the city- what an amazing traditional Irish pub. Friendly staff, football on tv, great pints. Stayed longer than we had planned. :

Waiting to catch our flight out of Dublin, we had an hour or so to kill. We opted to try Lord Edward pub, down the street from our hotel, and across the street from Christ Church Cathedral. The bartender was friendly and very funny telling stories and jokes like a true Irishman. We enjoyed our pints of Guinness (cheaper than most of the more touristy pubs) and took in our final hours in Ireland. I was a bit confused as to whether or not they still serve food. I didn't see any menus or a kitchen so I don't believe they do. But fret not, one of the best fish and chips spots in all of Dublin is within walking distance.

This pub was recommended by our free walking tour guide as a good, local joint with the cheapest price for a pint of Guinness. At only €4.80 per pint, it 's definitely a win compared to everywhere else that charges 7+. It 's pretty fun watching, and waiting, for the head to form at the top of the glass and the dark Amber color sets in. On a Wednesday night within the period of 3 pints, I noticed many locals come in and either a sit down with their own pints and watch the football game (let 's not be American about it... , or b grab a quick shot and bounce ie. A quick pregame. Either way, the bartender was certainly friendly, the price super fair, and the drink deliciously libatious. There were a few gnats flying around me while sitting at the bar, but it 's whatevs. Don 't let it ruin the experience. I think this is a much better joint than the Temple Bar to partake in some good ol ' Irish drinking. Next door is also a highly reviewed, albeit many on the meh side, fish and chips counter.

I stopped in here for a pint with my friend yesterday and I 'd have to say honestly the barkeep has me dying laughing. My friend asked how his day was and he replied completely schiite! He kept making jokes that were really dark but really funny. Then an old Irishman started singing songs with this girl from North Carolina. It was hilarious. The Guinness was pretty good as well. It is a proper old Irish pub with great pints in a part of town that has somewhat been taken over by new bars. This pub gets five stars for week poured Guinness and free entertainment!
