I came here a few times and also on Halloween as it's a really popular place for students at my college. The downstairs floor inside was pretty empty for a Halloween night, but the garden upstairs was packed, and they had outdoor heaters which was nice, especially in the freezing weather of October. They do have deals on drinks, but other than those I found the prices to be quite exorbitant. A gin and tonic was €15! I know drinks in clubs are always expensive, but I don't think I've ever paid that much. Better stick to beer next time. It's only 10 euro to get in so it's a popular place for students; every time I go I bump into lots of my classmates and people from college which I don't mind, although I'd probably not come here after I graduate for that reason. The bouncers were ok in that I never had any problems with them, although the queue outside to get in was slow moving. They are also quite strict. In terms of music, I love the songs they play here but I'm not a fan of sitting around outside, so I was disappointed at how empty it was at 1am on a Halloween night. The bathrooms are ok, and a lady is there to provide a huge range of cosmetics from perfumes, deodorants and makeup to chewing gum, probably the most I've seen so far as usually it's only the basics. Overall: Cool club, young vibe, nice beer garden upstairs which can be very crowded. Bouncers: fairly strict, holding my ID up to the moonlight to see if it's fake even though I'm 24. Drinks: Outside the deals, very expensive Inside: Stylish, large, nice seating and couches but pretty bare Outside garden: jam packed, lots of breaking glasses Entry Fee: 10 euro read more

I do not know what to say about this place and I have even been here twice. It is a strange place. Great deals on Tuesdays. The place was so crowded that I could not really get a good look at the place when I first entered and I ended up in one of the back rooms of the bar which was a little less noisy and a lot less crowded. There I noticed a beautiful townhouse feel with high ceilings and elegant decor. A strange look for a night club/bar where it is filled with energetic and dancing Brazilians. The deals on Tuesdays are great and it makes you want to stay a bit longer if you could drink beer all night. Unfortunately I can only drink so many beers. Had I been in a better party mood I might have liked it better than I did. read more

I recently went here for a staff Christmas party and as far as I am concerned I will never be returning due to the unprofessional and incompetence of the security. Firstly, I arrived and attempted to place my coat and bag into the cloak room. At which point the girl on the cloak room could not work the till. She didn't seem in any rush whatsoever to get any help. Eventually after some time she called a member of security to get her help. After learning the skills of how to work the till she then proceeded to tell me she had no change and was insistent that i would have to go to the bar to get change. Is customer satisfaction not priority. We had a private function room which was decorated for the festive season. We required a stamp for access to this room so I went outside to get the necessary stamp where I was cheekily asked for a free pass to my place of work. Despite this being in jest, it is unprofessional. Afterwards, my colleagues and I began to mingle with the rest of the club. My thoughts were with the hotel customers who were in rooms above trying to sleep. The music was so loud and the sound was fluctuating through out the night. I might add that I was not drinking. Mineral drinks were 3.30€ which on this particular night were only 20cent cheaper than alcoholic drinks. Should they not be encouraging nondrinkers who have to drive home?! Near the end of the night, two of my colleagues realised their coats were missing, one which contained a wallet and Ipod. My colleague and his friend approached a member of your security to inform him of the missing coat and other items and were requesting security check CCTV footage, to see if they could find out if the coat had been accidentally removed. The security guard refused. One of my friends who remained calm was removed from the club once they asked for the police. The security were violent at this stage on my friend who was completely peaceful while talking to them. They were so violent that I had to call the police to this location. I approached a member of security who was at the function room door. I informed him of what I had just witnessed by one of his security colleagues on my friend. I asked to be let out into reception of the Russell Court Hotel to make a phone call to An Garda Síochána. He accused me of being drunk despite not having a unit of alcohol and attempted to persuade me that I had not seen what I had witnessed. He then told me to exit through another door which was located within the club and entered directly into reception of the Hotel. When I approached that door, the security man there also refused to allow me out to make the phone call. I made the phone call to the police within the club where the lady at the other end could barely hear me. I went outside to wait with my friend who had been assaulted to wait for the police. The temperature was in the minus figures. I attempted to reenter the club to retrieve my coat and bag from the cloak room. The security guard who had been abusive towards my friend, refused me reentry after over hearing me inform my friend I had phoned the police. The security guard said to me that I had 'no hope of getting back in tonight after calling the police on him.' My other friend whose coat had gone missing was allowed reenter the club and he retrieved my belongings from the cloak room. I find this totally unacceptable that I was left to freeze in such temperatures while I waited on the police. While outside I also witnessed a security guard spit at another customer that had nothing to do with my situation. It is without saying that these security staff are in a profession which requires them to be aware of the laws when dealing with the public. Therefore, they should have a correct way of dealing with issues other than assaulting innocent customers who have initially asked for their help. Needless to say after this event I will not be returning to this premises where the security are like a pack of wild dogs who can only be so brave when they are as a group!! They are rude and interrupt to rile you. If you get involved do not rise to their bait. Keep cool. However, if you want to avoid this scenario just don't go there. read more

This place is very dangerous, especially if you go on a Thursday when all pints and shots are only 3euro, especially if you get talking to the cute Brazilian barman who then gives you shots for free and especially if you try to dance on the massive marble tables, which are really slippy! Apart from that it is quite good, only a 5euro cover charge, there is an excellent outdoor bar / drink / dancing / smoking area which is great for me as I don't smoke yet this area was a great place to hang out, unlike other cramped, dirty, smoke filled areas! The place itself is huge and the people where really quite friendly and didn't seem to mind when I bumped and fell into them! I have no idea what music they played and I don't know what time they kicked me out at, but over all an excellent night! read more

Here you can find cheap drinks, that's all. It is always full of people with no space to sit or to speak with your friends. Sometimes the beer tasted not good but maybe this it is because of the price but I didn't like a lot. Pros: cheap booze. Cons: crowded, bad beer, bad food... read more

I have drank here several times recently, and have always, without fail, had an altercation with the very rude staff. They do not seem to value customers whatsoever, and have harangued female colleagues over placing their bags on the floor, or myself for moving a seat from one table to another which had absolutely no implications on anyone else in the bar. Also it get's incredibly packed due to the drinks offers (the only good thing about this dive), so much so getting a drink can take over 10 minutes. There is usually huge queues due to a strong after work crowd, so avoid rocking up between 5-7. There is a strong foreign element, there was literally hundreds of spanish students there, presumably due to the cheap drink. If you're looking for a good pint this is not the job. The place is packed to the rafters with 18-20 year olds only drinking (spilling) breezers, double vodka redbulls and jager bombs which leads to the Guinness tasting like a lucozade and the toilets smelling of sick. The place itself is a complete let down, you wont get a seat and you wont be able to have a conversation without shouting at each other like a mentalist as the DJ bangs out the latest from the black eyed peas and its raining men hallelujah as loud as he can. Added to the fact the staff and security are notorious for being the most unpleasant and unreasonable in Dublin. Avoid this place like the plague. read more

There is usually a cover here, every night which is annoying. They do have some good drink specials though, and I wasn't expecting much at all after getting off a flight on a Monday night, but afterwards we visited this place nearly every/every other day. Great place to go late night especially. Other than that, THIS PLACE IS HUGE (when they open all of their bar/club/patio areas) on certain nights. The line also gets to be long, but they're collecting cover, and it moves fast. They play good music between electronic/dance and top 40. My favorite night was on a Wednesday where they had a fast live drummer that was right on the beat to all their songs - a daft punk song came on and he could not have been more spot-on. They also have some subpar DJ's playing live, but not every night. There's a lot of security, spilled drinks, and usually a huge crowd during their late hours. Nice dance areas downstairs and upstairs, and multiple bars. Bartenders are usually swamped but they move somewhat fast considering how packed they are. read more

WHY are all my favorite places in Dublin rated so low? maybe it's me? ANYWAY, I studied in Dublin last summer ('10) and dicey's was our go to spot. LOVE: -has both outdoor and indoor areas -has band inside on weekends (even did some beyonce!) -good music -classier than CFJ down the street (which I LOVE anyway) -1 star for the ridiculously expensive drinks. I know I shouldn't blame dicey's since it's EVERY place in Dublin, but I do what I want read more

One of the best clubs in Dublin!! I came here with my spanish friends and they enjoyed a lot in this clubs!!! Also has a lot of good promotions and really nice music so you should considerate to come here!! read more

Dicey's Garden - Sundays in Dicey's - Bars Near Me - Dublin, D

Grand for a few pints. At the price can't really complain! Drinks offers start from 2 euro a pint depending on the day of the week. Was my local haunt a few years back but on a sunny day it's still nice for a quick drink in the beer garden. read more

I come here nearly every week for their lunch/dinner menu as it is near my college. On a Wednesday I always get chicken stir fry as I find it the most delicious on the menu. For a price of €5 with a valid student card you can't go wrong with it as it fills you up for the day. They sell their drinks at a very cheap price comparing to pubs and clubs around that harcourt/Camden street area. However whenever I go there for a night out I always tend to be waiting to get a drink for a while then end up wearing most of it as it always packed, which is good in a way but also terrible when trying to get served. Some of the staff are really friendly and nice then there are others who look as if they hate the place. Overall I'm pleased with the food they serve and the price of both the food and drinks, would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a cheap lunch/dinner option. read more

Extremely rude door staff. I've never been to this place before, but for some reason the door staff thought I had been. He then started to talk to me as if I had been, which started to confuse me because I didn't know what he was talking about. So he started to talk to me as if i were a child. After I pointed out that I've never been here before, the doorman refused to let me in. So basically, because the doorman thought I'd been here before when I hadn't, he wouldn't let me in. Ant this was at 17:00 on a Sunday, so not even at a busy time. Never been to this place before, and after this extremely rude experience I will never go. read more

If you want to get drink as cheep, you should go to there! I think there is a lot of people everyday. Especially weekend is packed. so you have to wait the line. read more

Dicey's Garden - tequila shots - Bars Near Me - Dublin, D

They have good drink deals during the week, although the drinks seem watered down tbh. Great music and dancing although it's always a bit crowded. Make sure if you're on a night out to leave before 1:30 or else it will be impossible to grab a cab home read more

Gah. Confession time, despite my student status I've only been here once. I brought some American friends when they were visiting; I had intended to give them the Coppers treatment but it was 2am and Coppers was still 15 euro on a Thursday...no thanks. Here was 5 euro in which obviously is much better. There weren't any great drinks deals but I do remember having a couple of jagerbombs. The place is really quite cool, it doesn't feel like somewhere in Dublin. It's also cool, as someone said, that the dancing is in the smoking area, because that way you don't have to be separated from your smoker friends (or take up smoking temporarily). That said, the crowd is young and messy and the music is GODawful. Most of my friends go here only on Sundays because of the 2 euro drinks, but I've kind of outgrown that phase of life so I won't be rushing back. read more

Great night ended here. The beer garden is awesome, but what's even better is the bbq grill in the corner! Drunk food in the same place I got drunk at?! They should have more places like these in the States. read more

lol at people giving this place one star. This is a place where you go and drink cheap beer and a lot of it. Its fine for what it is a place to get you liquered up on the cheap. If you and some friends want to get plastered on a friday for 20 euro this is where you go, not where you take a date. read more

It's a great place to have fun in the first floor. There is a second floor and if you don't know the security guy you don't be able to go to there, because you have to know the security guy, even you want to pay you are not to be able to do it. The security guy (who is Brazilian) just allow people how give money directly to him (behind the scenes) or who is drug dealers. If you ask to how work to go upstairs he put you away from the club. Terrible service because of Brazilian guys thinking they are world's owner. read more

I used to go to that place very often last year... the usual Wednesday and Thursday nights for their very good prices (2.50€ a drink on Wednesdays, 3€ on Thursdays)... but then for some reason I stopped and started convincing myself that it was not good... I went back last week (after a year of absence ;-) as my very good friend wanted me to meet her there... and Good Lord!!! how on earth did I not go to that place anymore??? Big mistake! I had an amazing night!!! And I was sober that's how good the night was... I danced all night (usual hip hop/pop hits that we all like.. come on! You know you like to shake the booty on it!!) Yes it is a bit crowded but still nice for a week night, people are cool, the beer garden is definitely a big plus (even though the smell of cigarettes and smokes on your hair and clothes... i just didn't miss that). They are very serious about security with their squad of bouncers, they actually have paramedics on site in case something happens... I was the first one to give out about all those bouncers and that security... but I did appreciate them when a friend of mine fainted and they took good care of her, especially the paramedics! So BIG THUMB UP to Dicey's! read more

This is a really tough one. Dicey's can be a great day out with the lads if you wanna watch the football and have a few beers in the very impressive beer garden but then when they have the special promotional price nights, it's a free-for-all and it gets very messy. The service is lacklustre but can be very friendly at times too. One big gripe I have about this place is the doorstaff. At one stage, I was standing in the beer garden with some friends where I was actually movced to three different places because I was 'in the way'. (The other 300 people must have taken up all the safe acceptable standing places). It came to the stage where I actually asked permission from one of the security who go on like prison camp guards if I could stand in a certain spot. He okayed it and another guy asked me to move. I told him to go and ask my proverbial as I was sick of being moved around like a chessman. Maybe a 2 star rating is a bit generous but in fairness, I have had a few good sessions in there it's just a pity the high viz jackets go to the door staff's heads sometimes. read more

One of the best spots in Dublin for cheap pints, €2-2.50! Can't beat it! Every time I've been it was crowded but still able to move around. Despite being crowded, it was clean and well kept read more

If you book a table in advance, you get free platters of food (and free entry). The staff are very helpful, even taking back a reseved seat when asked. I heard good promotions are run on drinks Mon/Tues, but it can be a packed location as night goes on... read more

This was the best night out I had while in Dublin. A good mix of locals and tourists, and the place is f***ing huge!! They played good dancing music and I had a good time. I enjoyed it more than copperface jacks, which is pretty nuts in its own right. read more

1. Could not believe they asked me for €5 going in for a beer at 945pm on a Saturday 2. Then €6 a beer. They really need to join the real world €5 a drink and they might get more business. John would not recommend. John would not use again. read more

We went to Dicey's cause my good friend used to work there. It was loud and crowded and just BLAH. We had to pay to get in, with all the places to go in Dublin I would stick to the places that don't charge. At the bar, my female friend and I kept getting hit on by these super sketchy dudes, so we pretended we were together just to get them to back down. They call it a "beer garden" but the only resemblances to one I saw was that they served beer and had some flower pots outside. I was not impressed by the place as a whole and would recommend avoiding it unless you have no plans to have any conversation or don't need to enjoy yourself. read more

The dicey's is great. I always have a good time there. The music is nice, the place is freaking huge and the open garden allows us smokers to enjoy the night without having to move all the time from one place to another. There are several bars and, no matter wht people might say, you don't wait longer than in other clubs for a drink. Some nights they even make promotions on all the drinks. If you're not a fan of crowds you probably should move on and choose another place. read more

Went clubbing here on a Thursday night. The music sucked around 10 a.m. but it slowly got slightly better around 11 a.m. Ladies, it's a sausage-fest so expect annoying guys coming up to you to dance. read more

I was out at a function last night and we decided to leave a very good atmosphere to go to dicey reilly's. We were asked on arrival if our names was on the guest list we said no"sorry cant let you in"the door man said. It is booked out for guests only. Still two girls got out of a taxi that was not on the guest list and got in. I am a proffesional person and we were on a work outing from a dublin Hospital. We have always went to dicey's and then down to Bojangels. I feel we have supported this pub through out the years and when they get a booking its just closed doors to regulars. I have to say i am very dissapointed and it will be a long time before myself and my colleauges even think of going back. We went to the village on Camden street and had a great night !!!! read more

Bouncer would not let me in because I am " too old". Really? You age discriminate here? What a complete wanker! Will never try to come here again. Complete tosspot to everybody in the line. The girl directly in front of me had a birthmark on her face and he questioned her on it in a very disrespectful manner. Where is the management overseeing the behaviour of this tin pot god type of door management. BTW...the bouncer tried to hide when we took his photo to lodge a complaint. read more

Dicey's Garden - Bars Near Me - Dublin, D

Dicey's is the hangout for Dublin's young suit boys and dolly birds. The bar itself is decorated nicely, and the smoking garden has to be the biggest and swankiest I have ever seen, far outstripping the indoor area in terms of size and popularity. The tables are marble-topped, and there's plasma screen tvs imbedded into the walls. It is partially covered over and there's gas heaters hanging from the ceilings, making it feel very illegal to be smoking here. The music is very very loud and very very poppy. The drinks are bloody expensive at the weekends (€6 pints and €8 for a vodka and mixer) but during the week they are bloody cheap, €2 for all drinks on a Wednesday, and €3 on a Thursday. Inevitably, the place gets jammed to the rafters on these nights. It's not really my bag at all, but I recently had a really good night here with a new group of friends. read more

Dicey Reilly's is a great pub for the simple reason that it has an amazing beer garden. I'm not sure anyone goes in and doesn't sit out here actually - I know I don't. I wouldn't usually be a huge fan of the bars around Harcourt Street but this one definitely suits me because of the garden. It's a particularly good spot to go to if you're celebrating a birthday or going on a group night out. I think you can book a section and the size of the place means there's always enough room for everyone to be milling about. Dicey's has a carvery lunch menu from Monday to Friday, which caters for the many workingin the area, and there's a BBQ menu available also later in the day (from 2pm to 9pm). read more

Diceys is known for €2.50 drinks on a Tuesday, but bare in mind if you're not drinking alcoholic drinks you'll be asked to pay €3.50 for a split bottle of coke/fanta or similar drink which even for Dublin is expensive! read more

Diceys garden! One of a kind bar. Special promo's 2,5 euro for half a litter beer on Tuesday, 2,5 euro for a mixed drink with any kind of soda! People co here to get wasted. Security isn't very friendly, they can refuse people without any reason. The place is very clean, staff is cleaning constantly between the crowd and there is security everywhere because you know the Irish speak with their fists when they are wasted read more

Love this bar! Went there for the first time a few months back with a few friends at around 8pm on a Friday night. Not too crowded, got busier as the night went on. Drinks were very well priced. Great atmosphere with a good mix of people. Would definitely recommend it, a nice place to get tipsy! read more

Do Not Go Here. The bouncers are Ultra Agressive. A group of us went on a Friday night. The bouncers hassled each of us at the door about our ID. One of our friends was not allowed in for not having his ID but as we were walking away to go somewhere else it kicked off as the one of the bouncers attacked our friend. The other bouncers joined in using excessive force, punching and forcing our friend to the ground. It was broken up by the police, if they didn't break it up we all feared what might have happened as the bouncers were so aggressive. They completely over reacted to the situation in a way any normal person would not. What made it worse was one of the last bouncers grabbed, punched and chocked another friend of ours who got pushed by one of the first bouncers. It was totally uncalled for, overly aggressive and a disgrace. They went too far with our first friend over not showing ID but to attack and attempt to cut off the air supply of our second friend who had done nothing was a bigger disgrace. It was not the first time this has happened. I personally have seen male bouncers in this club push girls against walls intimidate and scream at the customers for no apparent reason. There are plenty of other clubs in Dublin to go to. Don't waste your night being harassed by bullies. read more

If you're 20-21 and love hanging out in places with shit music too loud for you to ear tour neighbours, you'll enjoy. Beer is cheap thats a plus. If you're 22+ and have half decent tastes in music, edm included, don't bother. read more

Was recommended this place by a pal at work. He said the beer specials were unreal and boy was he right. 2 EURO PINTS on the Thursday we went and the atmosphere was buzzing. They had a match on all the TVs, great music and a crowd between 18-25. Also found out they serve all bar food for 5 euro every night till 10. Well worth dropping in for some fun and laughs. read more

If I could give this place 0 starts I would. Do not recommend going here for the night club. There was a group of us and our problem started at the door immediately. They are homophobic and would not let our two guys in that were together in. As soon as we brought them in with girls they were automatically let in. read more

Roll up your sleves and get stuck in on Tuesdays students. Diceys is right beside ULearn on Harcourt Street and the drinks are a mere €2 a pop. Can't argue with that now can we? read more

Be careful with your credit card here. Just about every business in Ireland has credit card machines that offer the "service" of allowing you to pay in your home currency. You pay an exchange rate that's about 5% worse than if you just paid in Euros. However, the merchant is supposed to ask. We didn't get asked here. Just got presented with a charge slip in dollars. Business owner: train your staff better and ask your bank about scenarios where the customer can receive service from you, yet get it for free because the customer successfully pursued a chargeback. Otherwise it was a great place to go dancing and I'd have reviewed it a lot higher if the bar staff didn't unilaterally upcharge every purchase 5%. read more
