Dublin pubs: Drinkers have their say on best bars for 'quiet pint' in the city

Dublin pub goers have had their say on the best bars in the city to go for a "quiet pint".

Taking to Reddit last night, one Dubliner asked for recommendations on places they could go for a peaceful pint, explaining that they were getting over a sensitivity issue and wanted to have "regular conversation without pumping music or being absolutely wedged".

Responses soon poured in, with plenty of pubs across the city getting a mention. Neary's was one highly recommended pub, with one user praising their "nice pints".

They said: "Neary’s. Just off Grafton St, lovely decor and nice pints. The ambient levels there are always fairly hush imo."

Christchurch's The Lord Edward was also highly recommended. One user said: "I'm about 70% deaf (have a cochlear implant) and find that most of the proper Victorian pubs are grand especially in the afternoon.

"If you go early-ish in the evening, then upstairs in The Lord Edward has great acoustics, probably thanks to the deep carpet."

Another added: "Upstairs in the Lord Edward is a dream. What a spot."

The Flowing Tide, Briodys, O'Connells, Slatterys in Rathmines, Brogans, The Confession Box, Mulligans, Corrigan's, Kennedy's of Drumcondra, the Dawson Lounge, and Bowes were also recommended on the thread.
