Guinness Brewery, Brasserie and restaurant in an industrial district in Dublin, Ireland
The Brasserie Guinness is a restaurant and brasserie area within the Guinness Storehouse, a well-known visitor attraction in the Ushers B Ward area of Dublin. The space is spread across several floors of the building, offering a coffee shop, a brasserie, and a bar as separate dining options.
The Guinness Storehouse, where the brasserie is located, is part of the original brewery complex at St James's Gate, founded in 1759 by Arthur Guinness. Over the following centuries, the site changed its purpose several times before becoming a visitor destination.
The 1837 Bar & Brasserie takes its name from the year when Guinness and oysters were first considered a good match. This connection between the dark stout and traditional Irish ingredients is still central to the menu served in the restaurant today.
The restaurant and bar areas of the brasserie can be accessed without a ticket for the Storehouse exhibition, so a visit is possible without going on the full tour. Booking a table at the 1837 Bar & Brasserie in advance is a good idea, as this section tends to fill up quickly.
The brasserie offers a three-course menu made with Guinness as an ingredient, showing how the stout is used beyond the glass in Irish cooking. This tradition of cooking with Guinness goes back to the 19th century, when the dark beer became part of everyday recipes.
