Pubs Near St Anne's Park
The northside pints worth the detour before a show.
10 pubs ranked by locals
St Anne's Park has become one of Dublin's favourite summer concert spots — In the Park and a steady run of big outdoor gigs bring the crowds to Raheny and Clontarf, and the northside has the pubs to match. This is the locals' guide to where to drink within reach of the park.
Every pub here is scored on the pint, the room and the welcome by the people who actually drink in them — from Raheny village and the Clontarf seafront through Killester, Artane and Fairview. Sort the pre-gig pint, find somewhere for afterwards, and skip the places riding the concert crowd instead of pouring a proper Guinness.
