The Palace bar

The Palace Bar is well-known for its traditional Irish sessions. The cream of Irish bands has frequented the Palace over the years. The Palace Bar is one of the many pubs in this area, but it is also by far the oldest, being in existence since 1843.

In fact, it is one of the oldest pubs in Dublin still in existence today in its original form.
If it's the dazzling bright lights and thronging masses of youngsters desperately trying to have a good time that you're looking for, then the Palace will not be the scene for you.

It is renowned for its shopping, restaurants, night life, and, off course, its pubs as well.

The floors throughout are all tiled, and if you go in “early doors” the smell of the purifier used in the cleaning water can sometimes be a little awesome.
Sections of the bar are partitioned off into little alcoves by mirrored panels, so if you're not in a chatty mood, or want a bit of privacy to nurse the previous night's hangover, you can slip into one of these.
It has a large window right in the middle of the high ceiling, so it is always very bright and airy. So idealize it, you will be really impressed.
