10 Best Breweries and Beer Places in Naas

"The headquarters of Ireland's most famous beer adds a bit of culture and history to your vacation drinking, giving you some depth beyond throwing back a pint in a pub (not that there's anything wrong with that). Three bars, three restaurants (all with bars), classes, and tastings all are on offer here, and although the public can't tour the brewery itself, this is the closest Guinness enthusiasts can get to the makings of the dark beer. The Storehouse's restaurants serve fresh food designed to pair with Guinness."

"Our last stop, and the perfect way to end your two days in Dublin is Dublin’s most popular visitor attraction – the Guinness Storehouse. This is on the site of St James’s Gate Brewery, where Ireland’s legendary drink has been brewed since 1759. Today, over 50 million barrels of Guinness are produced annually on this location."

"Since 1759, the home of Guinness has been right here at St James’ Gate. And with a 9,000-year lease, it won’t be going anywhere any time soon. During a visit to the Storehouse, you’ll find out how Guinness is made and discover the story of how it came to be one of the world’s most successful brands."

"Porterhouse Central on Nassau Street is the 2nd Porterhouse location in Dublin. Thanks to being off Grafton Street just a little bit further from the heart of the nightlife action, it was much more chill than other pubs were on the same night I visited. I had the Celebration Stout, which had been created for the brewery’s 20th anniversary."

"Emma Devlin and Cathal O’Donoghue founded Rascals Brewing in 2014. It’s a bit of a journey out past Kilmainham Gaol, but Rascals Brewing Company is one of the most innovative breweries in Dublin. Going beyond the standard styles found at every other brewery, Rascals has unique beers such as Chardonnay Saisons, Mint Chocolate Stouts, & Strawberry Vanilla Milkshake IPAs."

"Rascals have a pretty healthy-sized outdoor area, but part of it is covered over with massive covers and canopies. Stillgarden Distillery situated beside Rascals also have a big marquee set up for those looking for cocktails. You can find Rascals in Inchicore off the Tyrconnell Road, visit their website for booking information."

"This neighbourhood bistro is run by renowned chef Philip Yeung and has a shiny reputation among Dublin’s restaurant scene for serving the best local ingredients, cooking them with flair and – most importantly – whopper flavours. Awarded Michelin Bib Gourmand status in 2018 for its “modern and creative” dishes with “vibrant colours and fresh, natural flavours” Craft serves up brunch, lunch and drool-worthy dinners. The best cooking can often be found outside the city, and Craft is proof."

"This is one of the best of Dublin's new neighbourhood restaurants, and is worth the trip from the city centre to Harold's Cross. Philip Yeung's establishment offers smart, modern Irish/European cuisine: fresh seafood, excellent meats, luxurious desserts – and the best of local ingredients. Try the County Mayo pork belly, followed by a vivid rhubarb mousse with meringue."

"This casual, unpretentious restaurant serves up Lebanese cuisine, and except for a couple of dishes that include cheese, the majority of Umi Falafel’s menu is vegan. Here you’ll find freshly prepared, home-made falafel in sandwiches and salads, along with sides like vegan spinach filo pastries, stuffed vine leaves and lentil soup. With a number of branches throughout Dublin, Umi Falafel can be found in Ireland’s oldest shopping mall, George’s Street Arcade."

"Govinda’s give customers an entirely veggie and plan-based experience with a host of unique flavours to their name. They offer chickpea curries, mouth-watering samosas, tofu satay and much more. If you’ve still got room there’s trays of vegan cakes to add the cherry to your hearty meal."

"Govinda’s is a very affordable Indian restaurant that has a completely vegetarian menu with plenty of vegan options, too. It’s located just on the north side of the river near Arnotts Department Store. The best part about this restaurant is their daily plates."

"Average Rating - 4.7Total Number of Ratings - 50+Location - DrumcondraAverage price - ££Review - delicious lasagna :) :). View Govinda's Restaurant Menu"

"Shouk is one of the coolest veggie restaurants in Dublin right now. Inside you'll find an array of benches in cosy nooks, a dedicated pickle counter and a sunny outdoor seating area. The menu boasts a plethora of flavours and dishes inspired by the Middle East."

"With huge portions, reasonable prices, and a BYOB policy, why wouldn’t you go for a meal at Shouk?. Try the vegan mezze platter, but make sure you have a big appetite because it’s filling. Address: 40 Drumcondra Rd Lower, Drumcondra, Dublin"

"With some of the tastiest falafel and the cutest outdoor seating area ever, this place will be your new fave spot."

"Their team of talented staff can make even the most complicated order. They are popular for theme cakes in particular, as they can create a variety of characters and styles."

"Last but certainly not least is Coco Bó on O’Connell Street. Coco Bó use the finest quality ingredients from all around Ireland to make a delicious selection of whipped ice-cream. If you are feeling particularly adventurous you should try their specialty- delicious ice-cream sundae’s!"

"99 hot chocolates to get you through the colder mornings - more whipped cream you say?. A post shared by Coco Bó (@cocobodublin) on Oct 8, 2015 at 1:15am PDT"

"The ethos of Bite caf� is that of 'Uptown Food, Downtown Vibe' and it's basically recreating your average fish and chip shop into a more upmarket fish experience with some interesting reinventions along the way. Gone is the greasy batter in a brown bag, replaced with hake in a vodka and beer batter accompanied with mushy peas and pancetta fries. The usual pre-theatre menu has been replaced with a 'Pre-Gig Menu', seeking to resonate with the modern diner."

"For your chance to learn more about the foundational history that characterizes Dublin itself as both unforgettable and culturally rooted, you need to stop by The Little Museum of Dublin. A museum specifically dedicated to people of Dublin itself, the estate features a wide, rotating exhibition of displays and content, including artistic renderings and submissions from locals. The Irish Times went so far as to call the museum “Dublin’s Best Museum Experience,” and with the provision of onsite educational materials and a wide portfolio of guided, local tours sanctioned through the museum, it’s a wonder that more people don’t find the time to visit The Little Museum of Dublin!"

"A post shared by The Little Museum Of Dublin (@littlemuseumofdublin) on Nov 2, 2018 at 6:26am PDT.
