This pub has been granted the James Joyce Pub Award for being an authentic Dublin Pub. " A good puzzle would be to cross dublin without passing a pub" Ulysses.
James Joyce identified and described the characteristic ambience of dublin pub life so successfully that the characters in Ulysses may be fictional, but they are based on a multitude of living beings, characters who Joyce found in pubs, just like this one.
This Establishment remains an outstanding example of the tradition which Joyce immortalised in his works and is a truly authentic public house which throughout the years has retained its down to earth genuineness of atmosphere, friendliness and presense of good company.
