  1. A

    Dick Mack's

    Announced by stars in the pavement bearing the names of its celebrity customers, Dick Mack's has an irrepressible sense of self. Ancient wood and ancient snugs dominate the interior, which is lit like the inside of a whiskey bottle. Out the back there's a warren of tables, chairs and characters.

    Foxy John’s

    Dingle has over 50 pubs, many of them mongrel affairs that still have vestiges of their lives as shops. Foxy John’s on Main St is one example and has old stock of hardware and outdoor clothing lying about. Don’t expect an exuberant welcome from the flinty-eyed locals.

    Hannie Agnes

    Local haunt that’s known for its smooth Guinness and, during the summer, trad sessions and Irish coffee. The windows are frosted and the interior is spare – like a good pint.

    Hillgrove

    There's a break from traditional Dingle at nightclub Hillgrove, where chart sounds rule nightly in summer, and at weekends the rest of the year.

    Great late-night hangout that's part jazz venue, part pizza restaurant and part wine bar, with moody blue and red surrounds.

  13. Shop pubs

    A number of Dingle's pubs are mongrel affairs that still have vestiges of their lives as shops. Two untouched examples are Foxy John's and Curran's, which respectively have old stock of hardware and outdoor clothing lying about. Don't expect an exuberant welcome from the flinty-eyed locals.

    John Benny's

    A toasty cast iron woodstove, stone slab floor, memorabilia on the walls, great staff and no intrusive TV make this one of Dingle's most enjoyable traditional pubs. An influx of local musos pours in most nights for rockin' trad sessions. The bar menu, including creamy seafood chowder, is hands-down the best in town.
