Davy Byrne's pub, Literary pub in Duke Street, Dublin, Ireland

The pub interior features dark wooden panels, brass fittings, and mirrors that reflect natural light from large front windows.

Established in 1889 by County Wicklow native Davy Byrne, the pub became a meeting place for Irish Republican Brotherhood during independence movements.

In James Joyce's novel Ulysses, character Leopold Bloom orders a gorgonzola cheese sandwich with burgundy wine at this exact location.

The establishment serves food and drinks daily from noon until late, with extended hours on Fridays and Saturdays until 12:30 AM.

The upstairs room hosted secret meetings of the Provisional Cabinet during Ireland's fight for independence in the early 1920s.

Inception: 1889
