About this restaurant

  • Innovative
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Good for special occasions
The Brazen Head is Irelands oldest pub. In fact there has been a hostelry here since 1198. The present building was built in 1754 as a coaching inn.  However The Brazen Head appears in documents as far back as 1653.  An advertisement from the 1750’s reads “Christopher Quinn of The Brazen Head in Bridge Street has fitted said house with neat accommodations and commodious cellars for said business”

    Food was ok but meat in stew was over cooked and very dry. Lovely pub and nice staff though.
