Iveagh Bar

The bar looks nice, lots of sofas etc to relax on but the barman who served us was clearly not in the mood. Surly, discouraging, unhelpful. We had one soft drink and left, as they’d run out of what we asked for. Not a good experience.

Le cadre est chaleureux.
De moelleux canapés qui donnent envie de rester longtemps, un tapis haut en couleur, des tables hautes pour ceux qui veulent manger et des tables basses pour ceux qui veulent boire un verre.
Le service
Est malheureusement pas toujours régulier, il y a souvent beaucoup d’attente entre la commande et la venue de cette dernière. Peut-​être une difficulté de communication entre les membres de l’équipe? En tout cas, ils ont le sourire et sont attentionnés.
Les cocktails
Sont bons mais en Irlande on boit de la bière!
Une adresse où il fait bon de se poser en attendant que la pluie cesse!

The Iveagh Bar is none other than the bar of the Ashling Hotel where we stayed during our city trip in Dublin.
This is a fairly large bar with a correct menu including classic drinks but also some snacks. I found the prices a little high. This is the only negative point. The space is really cozy and friendly, warm, you feel at ease in the big chairs near the windows!
This is the perfect place for a last drink before going to bed !

Nice ambiance, this is the bar/​restaurant in the lobby of the hotel we stayed in. Friendly staff and cold beer.

Great drinks, comfortable bar, friendly waitstaff. Katie makes a perfect cosmopolitan!

It was my last night in Dublin and I was leaving for the states in a few hours and I wanted to try one more beer before I left, so I made way down to the Iveagh Bar,
which happens to be inside The Ashling Hotel. The Iveagh bar is very warm and inviting, lots of comfy couches to sit on, I wouldn’t say this would be a bar to goto if you were looking for a fun night out on the town, but it was perfect for the last stop of the night kind of place.
Again unsure of what I wanted, I asked a few questions and was able to sample some beers, I settled on O’Haras, I tend to light the lighter of the ales, at least that’s what I am taking from my beer journy in Dublin. So I ordered a glass of O’Hara’s and then after a few sips I got to thinking this beer is missing a burger,
I ordered up a burger with some chunky fries, I have to say that the burger though perfect for that moment, was not one of the best burgers I have had, but the chunky fries, oh my, those are just great! Couldn’t get enough.
Half way through my burger I noticed I needed another beer lol so I ordered one and guess what, they must have thought this chick isn’t playing around, my 2^nd glass of beer was 2 times bigger than the 1^st, which was alright with me.
If staying at The Ashling and looking for a low key kind of place, this is the spot for you!

The food and non-​alcoholic drinks here were always tasty. The only real issue I had was the pricing. But then again, it’s a hotel and therefore one expects to typically pay a premium for anything extra.
It is a great place to people watch (if you’re in to). Lots of people walking to and from Heuston Station, joggers, dog walkers and lawyers/​fancily dressed people walking to and from the courthouse a block down the street.
