Bray

The Harbour Bar
Strand Road
01 2862274
opposite Bray harbour

One of the oldest, most well known and storied bars in Ireland. The bar is ranked as the "Best Bar in the World" by the Lonely Planet Guide. This bar has an amazingly diverse crowd and a unique look, the bar is littered with original antiques and interesting bric-a-brac, accumulated over 80 years, by three generations of the O'Toole family. The bar itself dates back to the mid 1800's. It offers a truly authentic Irish pub experience. The bar apparently served as the original model for all the worldwide "Irish" superpubs. Over the last century, the bar has been home to a who's who of both an international and national assortment of writers, film makers, actors and musicians. The stuffed moose head in the lounge was a gift from actor Peter O'Toole, when he was filming in Ardmore Studios, then known as Silverpines in the 1980's.
