Sinnotts

If you are looking for the ultimate sports pub in Dublin, go no further than this cavernous pub with its faux Viking ceiling. A sports enthusiast’s haven on game day; this lively pub has three big screens (sometimes showing different matches simultaneously), cheerful bar staff eager to replenish your pint, and a fun-loving crowd dedicated to cheering for their team, your team or any team as long as the sport is good. Beware, on big match days the pub can get quite cramped, so be sure to arrive early. For those whose passion in life is not so much about men bashing and smashing each other over possession of a ball, but rather about pursuits involving the written word; Sinnotts displays over 200 portraits, photographs, drawings and biographies of famous Irish writers.
