I had a drink here after dinner with a former co-worker. The bar was packed and we were fortunate to find a table. I ordered an Old-Fashioned. THe drink was average. The noise level was unbearably painful. People were speaking so loud. It felt like there was a contest to see which table could shout louder than the table adjacent to it. After the first drink, I had to get out of there because my ears were ringing from the high noise level. read more

Went here two nights and it was Hoppin' both times on a week night! They do a daily roast (no - not the stand-up comedy kind) and have great food. The bar tenders were warm and welcoming as well. If you are a tourist and looking to go off the beatin' path in Temple Bar, definitely add this place to your list. A tip: it does get a little toasty in here, so wear layers! It is cold outside, but it heats up in here quickly. read more

This was my first meal in Ireland and we made a good choice. It was a short walk from our Airbnb. Service was very friendly and prompt. I ordered the roast of the day. It was fine but a bit fatty. My partner ordered the Guinness Stew and it definitely looked better. That's the luck of the draw. There's a lot of character in this pub. The noise increased as more people arrived. Would I come back again? Sure, but I wouldn't order the roast of the day. I would have the Rockshore Irish Lager though. read more

So this is one of my favorite pubs in Dublin. Everything I'm in town I have to go for a pint, a whiskey and great music! If you want to dance, meet great people and enjoy great drinks, head upstairs and enjoy. Any night of the week! The service is great! Shout out to Dylan, Anthony, Paddy, Owen and Maeve! read more

Great relaxed pub atmosphere with wonderful live music. Located away from the busy vibe of center Dublin. Great whiskey selection as well.

Stopped in here for dinner as we were on our way back from the Jameson tour to our hotel. I had the Beef & Guinness Stew which was pretty good. I'd say service was just ok. Good stop if you want a pub atmosphere and pub food. read more

Great Traditional Irish Pub off Camden Street! Walking in.. it's rather large with a huge bar surrounded by nooks and high top seating, TV's showing ONLY Horse Racing for The Locals. They also have a second floor with a smaller bar and live music nightly! This joint is very well run.. it's very well staffed, clean & just run the way a pub should operate. They open early and serve Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner and all the food is homemade! Excellent soups as well as a daily roast or just classic sandwiches... everything is very fresh. What really makes the place is the service, everyone who served me was very nice especially Raquel who also had many great suggestions on places in the area. Faint music in the background and this place is always busy but not too busy if you know what I mean! Good mix of mainly Locals and some tourists make it must visit. Prices very average. PS- Check out the Christmas lights outside! read more

Followed the Dublin Fire Brigade here after the parade. Figured they knew the proper place to go. WOW! Devitts quickly became the best pub of my visit to Dublin. The bartenders and live music upstairs were outstanding! The place was packed, yet the wait was never long. Amazing craic! read more

Great atmosphere. Wonderful music and fantastic service. Loved our bartender Cole. Highly recommend a stop here if you are in town.

This is a great gem in Dublin for food and atmosphere. It is away from the over crowded Temple Bar area on Camdem street. We went here twice during our stay in Dublin and both times the place was packed with more locals than tourists. Despite being crowded, the service was amazing and the food was great. I'd recommend their steak sandwich, guinness pie and bangers & mash! read more

This was a comfortable and welcoming place for our group to eat lunch and have a beer. As vegetarians we were able to find plenty to eat, with excellent soup, chips, veggie burgers, and curry potatoes on the menu. The server was friendly and attentive, and it was okay that we had children with us. We sat in a booth with butter soft leather seats, which were so comfortable after our long jet lagged morning walk. Bathrooms were absolutely clean. I recommend a visit and hope to return. read more

The Irish Coffee was delightful and came with a biscuit. The sirloin sandwich and roast of the day were absolutely delicious. The Guiness of course was tasty. read more

What a fun pub! It's my son's birthday and we wanted to go to a pub -and eat. It was packed at 7pm on a Thursday. The staff were so friendly and accommodating. We finally got seats at the bar. My son ordered the beef stew and I had the fish and chips. Everything was made fresh and tasted amazing. Our drinks came and it was a perfect evening. We will be back read more

So happy we came here on Sunday! It was our first day in Dublin and we came for the traditional music session they have from 2-4. The music was fantastic! Our waitress Rachel was awesome! To start with we shared the seafood chowder. It was outstanding! Rachel recommended my husband try the Dublin Coddle and I had the fish and chips! Everything about Devitt's is 5 stars! read more

Had the roast special which was ham, potatoes and white gravy. Good comfort food. Wife had the Guinness stew and it was really good. A little light on the beef. She also got the mussels and they were good. Great toasted bread served with it. Ambience was awesome. Seemed like a lot of locals. Super busy on a Wednesday. Service was great and super attentive. read more

Service was awesome! Very attentive, kind and quick. We were here with a group of 4 and spent about €120 so felt it a bit pricey for the food. Food was just ok. €16 Chicken tagliatelle says it has chorizo but I couldn't taste or tell it was present. Noodles just ok. Salmon on brown bread starter also just ok. €4 sauteed greens were my favorite thing. Done well and fresh veg. Yum! €16 Burger and fries just ok. People rave about the brownie and Bailey's ice cream €7.5 but we weren't impressed. Could make a more impressive brownie at home. Drinks were, of course, great and price good. Had beer, cider and Irish whiskey. All tasty and decent price. About €11 for Yellow Spot. I think I'd come back, but just for drinks, not food. read more

Great classic Irish pub with good service and good drinks. Get the Irish beef burger! Literally the best cheeseburger of my life!

My friend and I asked the concierge at the Harcourt Hotel where we could go to hear live Irish music within walking distance. We were directed here and were not disappointed. It was quite crowded with people in their 20's and 30's but we didn't mind. In fact we liked the lively atmosphere. We found seats at the bar and ordered our new favorite drinks- Jameson and ginger ale. The female bartender was very sweet and attentive. The live music was so much fun. They played the Irish classics as expected... Rocky road to Dublin, Bantry Bay, etc. The crowd was pretty entertaining too. Rowdy guys and girls were dancing, or really just jumping, because it was so crowded. The gentleman behind the bar who looked like he was in charge reminded us of the actor, Ed Harris. So cute. When the band took a break, it seemed like a good time to head back to the hotel. Loved this place! read more

Great pub, best seafood chowder I've had. Service was fantastic. Atmosphere was just what you think for an Irish pub. read more

Mobbed with kids and not the traditional Irish music experience that was advertised!!

Just what we were looking for in a pub. We found a booth in the back where we could hear the great music and still carry on a conversation. The food was delicious (as were the adult beverages). Dylan and the staff provided wonderful service and fun conversation. Will definitely go back if I get to return to Dublin. read more

***UPDATE: I've now tried seafood chowder at 4 other places around town and Devitt's puts every single other seafood chowder to shame. There is no taste that compares...the chowder is full of seafood, not filler...and the Guinness bread is to die for! I'd love to smuggle a loaf back to the States! Original: Amazing staff who found us a seat on a busy evening. Friendly, fast, and very personable. The food we ordered was AMAZING...seafood chowder and bangers & mash. We will definitely come back while we are here and will recommend to all our friends and family traveling from the States. read more

Solid 5/5, non-touristy local pub with great local food. Great service, friendly to traveling foreigners, reasonable prices. Get off the beaten path and try this excellent local neighborhood pub :-) My dad and I stumbled upon this friendly neighborhood pub at the suggestion of a cordial-drunk local. Well the tip paid off. Local families and friends sharing a pint...local live music...extensive beer, gin, whiskey list, great pub food...we couldn't ask for anything more. Even loved the wall lock-boxes for storing your bottle of whiskey ;-) Try this lovely pub out for a wonderful experience and great food/drink read more

The food here was delicious and service was amazing! My sister and I saw the chocolate brownie with Baileys ice cream so decided to split one main (grilled bangers and mash) and one side (parmesan and truffle fries) so we could save room for dessert. We each ordered a glass of wine before the food came out and then another glass of port at the end of the meal. Everything was FANTASTIC. The pork sausages were tender and well-seasoned, and the slightly cheesy mashed potatoes were paired with well-cooked kale and green beans. The parmesan and truffle fries weren't as outstanding in comparison, but still yummy to munch on. But it was the dessert that really took the cake (well, brownie). Rich without being overly sweet with the perfect amount of moisture and paired with equally delicious (also not too sweet) ice cream, the brownie dessert was easily the star of the entire meal. For all those who love chocolate desserts, I would highly recommend that dish! Service was also amazing with attentive and friendly waitstaff who seemed to know exactly when we needed assistance and didn't bother us when we didn't. Absolutely had a great time and would come back again! read more

We were only in Dublin for 4 nights and went here 3 nights in a row! Great local pub with friendly staff, great food and live music! It was super close to our hotel ( Iveagh Garden Hotel, which I also highly recommend) and after a long day of tours and walking, it was so nice to be nearby! This has such a great local feel and is not a tourist trap at all! read more

The pub is a pub done the way it should be. Loud with lots of folks laughing and enjoying great times. Two floors packed and spilling out on to the sidewalk. Certainly the place to be on a Friday night. Didn't have the tourist only feel or sound either. A surprising twist to the visit was the food. The food is a legitimate excellent dinner. It's bar food- burgers, chips, fried this and that- but they do it all right. The dinners were cooked and presented with all the care you'd get any stand alone restaurant. I can vouch for the bangers and mash to rival any you've had. The menu wasn't just an afterthought for bar bites. The place is certainly worth a visit for a pint and a burger. read more

Also known as the Cusack Stand, and with its loyalty usually hanging from one of the flag poles on the outside wall, this is a real Dublin pub. Great for meeting people before heading onto one of Camdens 'trendier' locations or just sitting back for a few scoops and a bit of banter. Pub grub is available every day of the week, which is handy, and popular enough as a lunchtime option. read more

Devitts - The Cusack Stand - Pubs Near Me - Dublin, D

My local when I'm in town. I preferred it with the old furniture where you could see and feel the years of people enjoying some time in this pub. Now the front of the room has high stools and benches and hence high tables. I got used to it by now but still prefer a lower seat. The staff works there for years already so they get to know you and what you usually have. I simply love coming in, nodding and getting my drink. At least on Saturdays they have live music upstairs but so far I never managed to really go there as I'm usually there during the week and only the odd Saturday - then usually in a bigger group so not necessarily there to listen to music. read more

Maybe it's because I'm an old man at heart ... I blame my mom for sending me out with my Grandpa when I was little, but I love Devitt's. There's nothing particularly amazing or noteworthy about the pub, but I always just feel really comfy, cozy and warm everytime I'm in here. It's the kind of place that if I'm walking home down Camden Street I find myself popping into for a quiet pint or two with friends and then end up staying out for a few more. Also, in a less honourable pursuit I did come here once to fill up on pints when my American friends were visiting so that we'd have lots of liquid courage before heading off to Copper's (please don't judge me, my friends wanted to kiss Irish blokes and I figured this was their best option!!) read more

I really like Devitt's. It's the kind of bar where you might stop off at for a pint with a friend on your way home from work, or where you might meet up with friends before going out elsewhere. It's really relaxed, there's no pushing your way to the bar, just an easy drinking experience. During the day they have food and I often spy people reading the newspaper and enjoying some pub food round lunch time. In the evening it gets a bit more bumping, but as I said it's not wild in anyway. It's authentic, the staff is nice and attentive, and the drinks are a good price. They show all sorts of sports games, whenever they're on and occasionally have live music on weekend nights. read more
