About this restaurant

  • Great for live music
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Charming
Arthur's is the nearest pub on the route to The Guinness Storehouse, one of the city's foremost tourist attractions. It is popular both with locals and tourists. Naturally it has the freshest pint of Guinness in all of Ireland.

Arthurs is a classic Dublin pub, old style but well appointed. It has been a pub for over 200 years, and has many historical connections, being beside St. Catherines Church, outside of which the patriot, Robert Emmet, was hung, drawn and quartered in 1803.

We light a real turf fire everyday, play an eclectic mix of Irish music and have live music sessions in the evenings.

Upstairs at Arthur’s, we have a room that operates as a restaurant in the day, but at night becomes Arthur’s Blues and Jazz Club, where we host top national and international blues and jazz acts 5 nights a week. On stage we have a concert grand piano, and we also have an excellent lighting rig, and a top professional PA and sound system.

    Food is overpriced. What we got for a main course, the shepherd's pie, was the size of a starter. A handful of lettuce on the side wasn't even enough to fill us. I won't be going back there to eat. Pity as the pub has a good name because of its location to Guinness Brewery, but don't expect to leave full after eating there. Very disappointed with portions

    Lovely food, great service, and a nice vibe. The seafood chowder was well worth it, proper main course portion with high-end seafood within.
