There’s no other place in the world like Dublin and these businesses help to make it so!
It is a classic attraction in the heart of Dublin. This tour guides you around Dublin’s famous Cathedrals, the Georgian section of Dublin, and The Grand Canal Basin, all while in a DUKW, a WWII amphibious vehicle used to transport soldiers. You won’t have to worry about war on this tour though, you’ll only have to worry about having too much fun! These tours are just as much for adults as they are for kids! They are usually as informative and historical as they are fun and exciting!
The Church is a past church turned pub/ restaurant, it’s chocked full of incredible history, beautiful scenery, and fantastic food! Located on Mary Street, The Church stays true to its roots with an authentic organ and beautiful stained glass. But this uniquely Dublin experience is not just a history hot-spot, they also serve mouth-watering food from 16oz steaks to fish to burgers to salads and their very own kids menu.
Some say Barbie did it best, but we think Pink on Williams Street does it better. This unique dining experience is as its name describes, Pink! The interior is entirely pink. Their main focus is tea time but they also offer fabulous lunches and brunches as well as frequent events for occasions such as Mother’s Day and Valentine’s Day. Truly a must-see of Dublin Town!
This gem found on Bachelors Walk is a uniquely Irish experience with live music, dancing, and a 3-course meal to go along with it. At Celtic Nights you can guarantee a night that you won’t forget or find anywhere else, a must-see by any standards.
Don’t let the name fool you because Reynolds on Lower Abbey Street has much more on offer than meets the eye. While also acting as your regular old newsagents, Reynolds also offers tobacco, pipes, and lighters as well as a vast array of plants like cacti, succulents, tulips, peonies, and of course your classic lily’s roses, and so on.
Located on Dame Street, World Of Illusion offers a world of, well, illusion. They have over 70 different illusions for you to see and experience. Would you prefer to go with a group of friends rather than go publicly? Don’t worry, because you are also able to book private events with you and your friends or go for corporate events! So if you find yourself on Dame Street why not check out World Of Illusion?
Located on Fade Street, First Chapter is Dublin’s first 2D hand-drawn café. They sell toasties, goodies, and of course, tea and coffee. The ambience is spectacular and we couldn’t recommend it more!
If you’re a music fan then we couldn’t recommend The Irish Rock N Roll Museum more, from fully functioning instruments and equipment to Irish rock n roll memorabilia to their “Wall of Fame”, The Irish Rock N Roll Museum on Curved Street, Temple Bar is a must-see museum.
Tropical Popical on South Williams Street is not your average nail bar, their brand was born out of a trip to the United States and they took all the knowledge they gained from that trip and put it into their shop. With several years in the business and even more awards for those years, next time you need to get your nails done we recommend you swing by Tropical Popical.
Whether golf is in your wheelhouse or not, Pitch on Dawson Street would be happy to have you. Pitch offers a plethora of different games, courses, and even challenges all with top of line technology. If your looking for fun, competition or if your just looking to train your swing, pitch is a perfect spot for you and friends.
The Hideout on South Williams Street offers a new way to have fun with your friends. At The Hideout you can rent out a pool table for €15-€20 per hour but to sweeten the deal, they also allow BYOB for just €5 per person! If that’s not a bargain then I don’t know what is.
As you may or may not know, Dawson Street is home to many exciting and entertaining businesses, one of those businesses being Flight Club. They have made new and exciting ways to play darts with friends by making their own multiplayer games, along with that they also serve incredible cocktails and a choice selection of sharing platters for you and friends. They also frequently hold special events and social brunches.
If you’ve never put on a VR headset or you wear one every day, that doesn’t take away from the fact that VR Link on Jervis Street is a phenomenal place to go either by yourself or with friends. With a total of 30 games available to play, there’s something here for everyone to enjoy!
The National Leprechaun Museum:
Almost everyone has heard of Leprechauns but not their place in Irish folklore. The National Leprechaun Museum will help you better understand the history and Truth about Leprechauns while also making it entertaining and engaging. You can find The National Leprechaun Museum on Mary’s Abbey.
I’m sure almost everyone has thought about being in The Liffey at least once, and with City Kayaking you can. City Kayaking will bring you on a tour that will give you a new appreciation of Dublin’s Beauty, as they say, “there is no better way to see and understand the Irish capital than paddling its gentle waters.” They also offer musical tours in which some of the best musicians in town will serenade you while under some of Dublin’s most iconic bridges.
