Davy Byrnes is best known as "Dublin's most famous literary pub". Situated in the centre of the city and first licensed in 1789, Davy Byrnes is synonymous with the literary giant James Joyce who mentions this proud establishment in both Dubliners and Ulysses.
Since Ulysses, there has been a constant literary pilgrimage to Davy Byrnes, which culminated in the revival of Blooms day. This attracts a wide literary audience to the premises, who like Leopold Bloom, can enjoy a gorgonzola sandwich and glass of burgundy.
In the last ten years, Davy Byrnes has been most reputable for its excellent pub food. This Dublin pub boasts seafood as its specialty. Every lunchtime until late evening customers can enjoy and sample a broad range of seafood.
Byrnes is a bright, airy pub that is the perfect antidote to whatever smoky den you were in last night. Therefore, for daytime recovery, it is a good bet. With its location off Grafton Street, it has been popular with Dubliners for generations.
Despite all this fame it remains a genuine, well-run place and equally popular with Dubliners, who find it a handy meeting place and enjoy the bar food. The style is quite traditional, providing 'a good feed' at reasonable prices.
