Another fine pub which, along with Finnegans "book-ends" the town. Check out their Live Music nights. They also offer excellent food at lunch and dinner.

Sightseeing

A very pleasant trek around Bray Head with lovely sea-views. Starting from either Bray Promenade or Greystones Harbour, (or Dalkey train station), you can stop for a coffee/pint, and take the DART (train) back. Solid hiking shoes are recommended as the trail can get rough in parts.

Take the sea air at Coliemore Harbour where you can enjoy spectacular views of Dalkey Island. In the 14th century this acted as the main port for Dublin. Merchant ships came from near and far. They dropped anchor in the deep waters of Dalkey Sound, bringing valuable goods that were stored in the seven fortified castles in Dalkey.

Arts & Culture

An absolute MUST-SEE if you want to understand where the town of Dalkey came from, with an interactive, audio-visual tour, including characters from bygone ages. Dalkey Castle is one of the seven fortified town houses/castles of Dalkey. The castles were built to store the goods which were off-loaded in Dalkey during the Middle Ages, when Dalkey acted as the port for Dublin. The castles all had defensive features to protect the goods from being plundered. These are all still visible on the site: the Machicolation, the Murder Hole, the Battlements with its Warders’ Walk, and slit arrow-loop windows. In Dalkey Castle, you will see a fine example of barrel-vaulted ceiling and traces of the wicker work that supported it. Many niches have been exposed on the walls where precious goods may have been stored. The Castle is an integral entrance to both the Heritage Centre and Dalkey Town Hall.
