Review & FAQ:

Temple Bar is a vibrant and bustling district on the south bank of the River Liffey, which is renowned as Dublin's cultural and entertainment quarter with shopping, dining, entertainment, and a lively nightlife. Dating back to 795 A.D. when the Vikings set up camp here, Temple Bar has always been a favorite spot with narrow laneways and off-shooting streets lined with cafés and restaurants, galleries and pubs, boutiques and shops and plenty of nightclubs. Buskers, street artists, exhibitions, and open air markets create a colorful carnival atmosphere, and popular spots with both locals and visitors include the Temple Bar Pub, the Palace Bar, Oliver St. John Gogarty's and the Auld Dubliner.
