Irish pubs are known for being effortlessly well-decorated, and Mulligan’s on Poolbeg Street is no exception. This no-nonsense 18th-century bar is a “sight for sore eyes”, according to Daragh. This classic pub has been operating on Dublin’s Baggot Street since 1867, so you can be sure they’re doing something right! Daragh says Bowes is a “quiet, unassuming pub with a pint so creamy you’ll think you’re drinking milk straight from a cow. A bit of a secret spot amongst those in the trade.” Well, the secret’s out now!
