The Temple Bar Pub
Dublin, Ireland
The capital's flagship pub with a bright red facade adorned with flowers, operating since 1840 on the corner of Temple Lane and Fleet Street. A labyrinth of wooden rooms with sawdust-covered floors and brass taps buzzes with live traditional music played by fiddlers and accordionists from noon until night. The bar boasts a collection of over 450 bottles of rare Irish whiskeys and Scottish single malts. In the inner courtyard, fresh oysters from Galway Bay can be sampled.
