Dublin's Best Bars
If there's one thing Dublin is known for it's the incredible selection of bars, pubs and overall watering holes. With over 1,500 pub in this tiny city of 1 million people it's hard to narrow down the best spots to just one list.

This is just a short list of bars and pubs serving various purposes from people-watching, best stouts and awesome live music. Dublin's best bars, in my humble opinion.
