Dublin Gay Bars

For 25 years, The George has been the queen of the Dublin's gay scene, entertaining customers with its themed nights, international guest performances and friendly atmosphere.

The bar has two late-night dance areas and an impressive garden - perfect for summer nights. The George attracts a relatively young crowd, and straight allies are more than welcome to join the party.

Home to Ireland's most famous drag queen, Panti. This gay-popular bar is open 7 nights a week.

Expect outrageous dances and cabaret shows as Panti lights up the stage. Don't miss her fabulous show every Saturday night.

Dublin's gay-popular bar (formerly "The Front Lounge") still draws in a fun, mixed crowd (many are gay). Street 66 serves a great choice of beers, cocktails and other spirits.

You'll enjoy the friendly atmosphere, great staff, live music and tasty drinks. Located on Parliament Street, on the edge of Temple Bar.

Opened in 2019, The Pennylane is already a popular LGBTQ+ venue in Dublin. As the sister bar of Dublin's popular PantiBar, the owners are well-versed in running a successful gay bar.

PantiBar is the premier party spot in Dublin. However, Pennylane offers a calmer alternative. It is the perfect spot for a nightcap, a date or catching up with friends. Be sure to check it out if you're in Dublin!

Located on Smithfield Square, near the Christ Church Cathedral, is the perfect brunch spot. Oscar's Cafe offers modern and classic European cuisine, 7 days a week. As regularly supporters of Pride and great hosts of bottomless brunches, you'll struggle to find a better gay-friendly brunch spot in Dublin!

R.I.O.T is a popular gay-friendly bar in Dublin. While not explicitly a gay bar, the "fuck what people think" ethos of the place welcomes all. Expect lively nights and quirky decor from the recently named 10th best dive bar in Europe!
