Guests seat themselves in one of the many cozy tables located in this bar. If you're stopping in for dinner, I recommend trying the bangers and mash. The gravy on this dish is simply out of this world. I never tasted something so savory! Pair it with a tall pint of Guinness and you'll be in heaven. Service was fast and friendly. Plus the prices were reasonable for a hearty dinner that will leave you eager to come back again and again.

After the bus dropped us off, we took the short walk over to enjoy a wee pint. Gayle, Fern, and Don chose Guinness Stout, while I went for a Murphy's version. We arrived late afternoon when the there were available seats. Service was good, people were friendly, and this place soaks of Irish history going way back. We were also excited to be in Ireland and perhaps let our conversations go on a bit long. By the time we looked up, the place was packed and it was time to move on. Maybe we should have had something to eat, but the tea bus fed us well. I would have also liked to walk around the multiple floors of this place, but maybe next time.

O'Connells is near the busy intersection of the River Liffey and O'Connell Street so a fabulous…read morelocation. However, it feels outdated, a bit dirty and worn out. The menu is nice, plenty of traditional Irish dishes to choose from and like most pubs, plenty of whiskey and beer. We chose O'Connells for two main reasons, they have Toasties and Banoffee Pie. The Toastie was very basic with a simple white bread, ham and cheese, but it wasn't quite toasted enough to even melt the cheese, so it was somewhat disappointing for such a simple sandwich to make. The Banoffee Pie was pretty good, but it's the only one I've ever had, so nothing to compare it with. It was fresh, tasted homemade with a nice crumb base, creamy banana and toffee and topped with fresh whipped cream, or ice cream if you prefer.

I ask the bartender and he yells at me that they aren't serving food, then proceeds to complain to another patron about tourists coming in (I'm Canadian). It was rude and super unnecessary - if the kitchen was closed or something just say that, but he snapped at me and then complained about me in front of me for asking to order food, even though the place clearly sells food. Don't know if he was having a bad night or something, but uncalled for. I guess don't go here if you're not Irish or if you're hungry unless you want to get yelled at.

Fitzgerald's is in the Temple Bar section of Dublin so it definitely attracts tourists. However,…read moreI've seen quite a few locals patronizing on occasion. Even though it's a bit more touristy, it's still a great spot. A typical Irish pub with proper and good pub fare. The boyfriend had the beef and Guinness pie. We shared a Carlsberg as well as an authentic Irish coffee. I had a proper cottage pie (not to be confused with shepherds pie which is made with lamb). Mashed potatoes topped this pie of carrots, peas, and Irish beef. Good service and affordable pricing considering its super touristy location.

Environment: casual, typical Irish pub, abundant lighting, music not too loud. Service: friendly, but there seems to be only on server taking all the tables. My hour was not busy so she could take care of everything. Drink: Guiness stout, Irish signature, standard. Soup: soup of the day was chicken and potato. Didn't taste much chicken, but I love the way they diced the potato and used a slightly clearer broth base than potato cream soup. Can taste the little bits of fresh potato. Cottage Pie: can't go wrong with minced beef and veggies. Seasoning was on point, and I loved the fact that it was not overly watery. Generous portion of mashed potatoes. Overall: standard Irish pub, 3.5-4 stars.

Didn't know this until it was almost 9pm and were told we will have to leave by 9pm because the musician is coming. So, why did they sit us there? We came for the music they advertise that starts at 9pm. Arrived earlier to eat and have a couple drinks before then. Ordered over 100 euro of food and drinks only to be told later we had to leave. And by then the pub was packed and no where else to sit. Clear message they don't want just anyone there. Maybe it's a locals pub. Maybe they only want certain people in there. I have a feeling they won't care about bad Yelp reviews.

The pub is quite large and can accommodate a large party such as ourselves for the afternoon. Lots of TV's to catch a match and craic to feel at home. We had a lovely veg soup upon our arrival to take the cold from the gravesite out of us and get the warmth back in. The soup was piping hot and light enough to leave room for a lovely tea sandwich or two. And the tea sandwiches were served with crunchy rippled cheese and onion crisps (Hunkey Dorys) that complimented the sandwhiches nicely. The service was a bit scattered but can't slag them considering we were quite a large party all at the same time. Once they got going they were friendly and attentive. The Guinness was nice, the tea and they make a lovely Irish Coffee as well. To you Uncle Paddy, it was an honor to sit in your local and celebrate you!
