The Westbury
If you’ve been traipsing round Brown Thomas, shopping til’ you’ve dropped, then the Westbury is definitely the best place for that post spree cocktail or champagne!
The Sidecar Bar at The Westbury has an amazing cocktail menu, and the décor is sure to whisk you back to the 1920s. While you wait for your chosen tipple, you’ll whet your appetite with a small vintage champagne to really get those taste buds ready.
If you’re not in the mood for a cocktail, then choose a window seat in the Westbury lobby, and enjoy a flute of champagne with some salty snacks, or afternoon tea. One of the best people watching spots in Dublin!
The Shelbourne
Balfe St, Dublin 2, Ireland
If it’s a luxurious meal you’re after, then head to the Shelbourne Hotel. We visited here for my Auntie’s 50th Birthday, and what a treat it was. We had pre-dinner champagne in their No. 27 Bar and then enjoyed a personalised Birthday menu in The Saddle Room restaurant.
Dalkey
27 St Stephen's Green, Dublin, Ireland
If it’s extravagant traditional Irish food you’re after then head over to Dalkey where you’ll find an array of fancy pubs and bars. Our personal favourites are ‘The Club’, with its high ceilings and painted murals, or grab a booth at The Dalkely Duck and enjoy some fancy traditional pub grub. You may even catch U2’s Bono having a pint!
107 Collemore Rd, Dalkey, Co. Dublin, Ireland
Castle Street, Dalkey, Dublin, Ireland
Horse Drawn Carriage Tour
This is something we haven't had time to do yet, but it’s definitely been added to the bucket list! The people in the carriage looked like they were having the best time, and what better way to see and learn about Dublin's history than by horse and carriage with a glass of champers?
