About this spot
BIG FAN is one of the best spots in Creative Quarter, Dublin. Irish food has come a long way — and the pub scene was always world-class.
💡 Tips before you go
- Order at the bar in pubs — table service is for restaurants
- A proper Guinness needs 2 minutes to pour. Worth the wait.
- Don't skip the seafood — Ireland's coast produces incredible fish and oysters
- Crisps (chips) at the pub are an essential beer companion
