I wish I could go to the Hairy Lemon tonight for supper! We had delicious lunches while we were visiting Dublin. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a friendly, warm, hospitable dining experience! Send me some sticky toffee pudding, please!! Sharon Curley Shattuck Boston More

Of the pubs we visited in Ireland, this was by far the best for traditional Irish food. Their stews and chowders are outstanding, and the place is a lot of fun. Don't miss The Hairy Lemon! More

This pub was suggested to us by our Hotel. We enjoyed it so much including the delightful Melissa that we came back the next two nights. Good Food, Great Price and the Staff made you feel welcome. More

Me and my friends happened across this place and went in because of the unusual name, but we stayed because of the atmosphere! Everyone was super friendly, the buzz of the place was great and we all had a blast! Fun times! More

The 5 euro mojitos are a definite attraction here as well as the availability of seating. The bar is quite vintage with rickety old wooden stools.

We were steered to this pub by the concierge at the Shelbourne and wound up going back twice. The people were wonderful and the food was excellent for pub food. We highly recommend the Guinness stew. What a treat. More
