This New York-meets-Paris (but SURPRISE you're actually in Dublin) bar has the kind of laid-back and stylish approach that we dig. Plus you're in the action, right next to Grafton Street and the Creative Quarter - prime people-watching real estate.  

The terrace is where it's at so grab some mates and get out there to while away an afternoon.  Irish weather ruining your feeling al fresco feels? No stress, the industrial style brasserie inside is also cool. You'll find BarChick soaking up the buzz at the bar chatting to the staff who all know their stuff.  We loved the Exit Strategy - Celery Infused Beefeater Gin, Blanc Vermouth, Kaffir and Boston Bitters. Then there’s the food. The team has scoured the country to find the best that Irish artisans have to offer, from artisanal cheeses to free-range poultry. Don’t leave Dublin without dabbling in those bar bites. Dressed crab on Guinness bread alongside a Milano-Torino cocktail? Balfes, you've nailed it.
