A Hundred Thousand Welcomes

 

Patrons of Kehoes, the end is nigh.

We’ve waited as weeks and months rolled by.

The light at the end of our tunnel, is in sight.

So on August 31st, we will delight

In welcoming you back, through our open door,

Offering our services, to you, once more.

Things may be different but some always the same,

The place, the people and the creamy pint of plain.

 

Written by Luke (of Kehoes)

 

 

 

The time is coming, to you, my friends,

Just a few more steps around that bend

And we’ll sit n sup n have the banter,

How long we’ve been away won’t matter.

We’ll raise a glass and toast to the many,

Who helped us through this unfamiliar journey.

So the doors will open, on the 31stday of August,

On one of Dublin’s best pubs, no one could deny.

A place where peoples stories are ingrained,

Silently sipping or laughing over the pint of plain.

We’ll be here with a hearty ‘Howaya!’ and a ‘There ya go!’

The times may be different but there’ll always be Kehoes.

6 Pubs of Christmas

Cue the Holiday Jingles: Christmas in Dublin is something truly special. Celebrate the silly season with us this year and enjoy a truly Irish experience!

 

From the cosy snugs in Kehoes and The Stag’s Head to the heat of an open fire. We have an abundance of Irish Christmas atmosphere on offer as well as one of the largest selections of gin in Dublin in the Gin Palace worthy of Queen Margaret herself.

 

Speaking of history, we have just the place for those looking for something historical. Check out The Grand Central, where Irish School of Wireless Telegraphy once sat and the broadcasting of the Proclamation of an Irish Republic via shortwave radio in 1916 was aired. You’re sure to satisfy any historian buff.

 

If you’re more of a music buff wander up to Thin Lizzy’s old haunt, Bruxelles. While you’re there give them a vote at our voting station for ‘Rock & Roll Hall of Fame’. The bar has attracted other familiar faces such as our very own Michael Flatley, Michael O’Driscoll to Oasis, Snow Patrol and many more. If you’re lucky you may spot a familiar face.

 

Take a wander down the cobbled streets of Temple Bar before the end of the night and see what treasures old Dublin has to offer. Drop into The Quays for a pint of the black stuff and some craic agus ceoil.

 

For a true Irish experience. Pop into each of our bars and let us know your favourite… 12 pubs… sure who survives that. Savour and enjoy it with 6!

Best Pint of Guinness in Dublin

Nestled away just off Grafton Street, Kehoes Pub, South Anne Street, is considered by many a home to one of the best pints of Guinness in Dublin City. The former home of John Kehoe himself, our well-established watering hole is where you will find the creamiest, smoothest pint of the black stuff, putting us on the bucket list for many tourists and visitors to Ireland. There are many nooks and crannies in which to savor your pint in the buzzing atmosphere of our cozy pub. Hide away in our snug or sit at the bar and see how the perfect pint is poured by our well know barmen Ian & Luke, who are always on their Guinness game. So, after you’ve done your site seeing around Trinity College and picked up some last minute bits in Stephen’s Green Shopping Centre, remember to call in and we will have the perfect pint waiting with your name on it.

‘If you’ve not had a pint of Guinness on a summer’s day standing outside Kehoes then you just have never experienced the real Dublin. – Lovin Dublin

Our sister pub Stag’s Head is also on the ‘Top 10 Pints of Guinness in Dublin’ List so if you are heading over to Temple Bar, stop in. You won’t regret it!
