Nearby pubs
Cleary's
Highly regarded for its warm staff and incredible food, Cleary's in Inchicore also pours one of the cheapest pints of Guinness in Dublin. This is a proper local pub in a neighbourhood that was named one of the coolest in the world, and Cleary's captures that spirit perfectly.
The Black Lion
Beautifully preserved and now family-friendly, the Black Lion sits in the centre of Inchicore and carries the quiet confidence of a pub that knows its worth. It is one of those rare places where the decor, the pint and the welcome all feel exactly right.
Slatt's
Set off the beaten track in the back of a housing estate, Slatt's feels more like a country pub than a city local. The atmosphere is nice and quiet, the staff are friendly, and it is the kind of hidden gem that rewards those who seek it out.
The Shebeen
Classic Dublin local in Inchicore with traditional styling, loyal clientele, and a peaceful atmosphere away from city centre tourism.
