Review: De Old Abbey Tavern on Abbey Street in Howth is a great spot for a couple of drinks anytime of the week. The place oozes relaxation and on the cold spring Saturday afternooon I ventured in, they had a real fire lighting which added to the cosy atmosphere. Taking a seat at the bar, I was disappointed to hear that food had stopped serving at 3.00 but I ordered a pint regardless. The resulting Guinness was quite simply one of the best I have ever tasted and was just above averagely priced. The staff were friendly and service was swift. It also offers Live Trad Music. Whether your with friends chatting away or are just looking for a peaceful drink, this pub will suit your needs.
Public Reviews:
-My daughter and I stumbled across this charming establishment quite by accident last year (April 2002). Of course I knew it as soon as I stepped inside! We too were pleasantly greeted by a warm peat fire and quiet, unhurried atmosphere on a bleak Spring day.
- Yip great place, great pint, Great staff, Great Music, Great food, Nice cosy setting, a lot of tourists!
- As promised, my daughter and I re-visited this charming establishment in November 2003. We were not disappointed in the entertainment, atmosphere or hospitality. Sadly, I have now no reason to return to Dublin in the foreseeable future, but when I do, I'll be there again for sure. (This must be the best known pub to any in North America due mostly to The Abbey Tavern Singers - thanks a bunch, and long may you live!)
