Local Attractions

Temple Bar
Temple Bar
Nightlife
5 mins
Temple Bar is situated between Dame Street and the river Liffey, and stretches from the Bank of Ireland (Old Parliament) building to Christchurch Cathedral. The area was earmarked for demolition in the 1980s to make way for a central bus and rail station, but through concerted effort and protest was saved and redeveloped as an entertainment and cultural quarter. At times at victim of its own success, the 18th century cobbled streets are home to a variety of bars, restaurants, theatres, cinemas and galleries. The area is undeniably lively and this is particularly the case at the weekends when crowds of young revellers can get pretty boisterous! That said, the area has several notable restaurants and some great bars and live music venues. The Irish Film Institute, the Project Arts Centre and the Gallery Of Photography / National Photographic Archive are all very worthy cultural enterprises. Meeting House Square is home to a farmer’s market on Saturdays. The square is also used regularly over the summer months for outdoor film screenings. (See the website for details.) The more recently developed Cow Lane / Old City area close to Christchurch Cathedral showcases the latest trends in Irish fashion and interior design. All in all, the area holds something for every visitor and is a rewarding area to wander in for a morning or afternoon any time of year.
