Continuing the trend of recent years, this was a long-closed pub which has reopened in the past few weeks. I had seen people working inside and tap heads illuminated when passing a few months ago, but it took a bit longer to come together fully. The interior looks like it is probably fairly original but everything is clean and refreshed.
A fairly normal, small-ish traditional Dublin pub, on the day of my visit it was busy with tourists staying in the nearby student accommodation for DIT which is rented out during the summer. It is likely to become a popular stop for visitors to the soon-to-open 14 Henrietta Street tenement museum which is just up the road.
There's a relatively limited range of drink options, but it was nice to see the proximity to the brewery being advertised by a handwritten sign on the Porterhouse Red tap. Comparatively cheap US sized pints of Sierra Nevada IPA was what I went for
