![Irish Pub Culture: The Definitive Guide to Drinking In Ireland]()
The Pub in Ireland is a very special place. More than a mere watering hole, the pub is part of our culture – the headquarters of many the group of friends, a place that bares witness to the celebrations and milestones in one's life: everything from birthday's, the new job, first dates, weddings, parenthood, even funerals and celebrating the memories of loved ones lost.

But that's okay because no two lists will likely ever be exactly the same; there are so many pubs available to us in this city, of various types, different styles and attracting different crowds, that lists of 'The Best Pubs' or someone's 'favourite' pubs serve to be, if nothing else, at least reminders to us locals to go back to a pub we may have overlooked for too long.

The capital's most valuable cultural export is tourism and it has enjoyed a notable surge in 2015.
