    Dublin's hidden gem. Great fire, comfy chairs, no music- just the hub of conversation. Seem to have started nice bar food too.

    Lovely, quiet place to study, reflect, and have a good drink. Hidden gem.

    Join the locals and order a Baileys to savor in a big upholstered chair alongside the toasty open fire. – Green Guide Editor

    Great hideaway from the busy streets, but the bartender gets all fussy when ordering non-alcoholics..."it's a pub not a Starbucks-like-coffee-bar". Just order what you want and enjoy the nice setting!

    The Library Bar, upstairs @ Central Hotel. Nice comfy armchairs & very relaxed atmosphere. Get there early to get the couch in front of the fire! Perfect on a Winters evening. Submitted @barrykeane

    An excellent spot for a hot toddy or cup of tea. Wifi isn't the best!

    Hidden bar in exchequer street, this place is reserved and quaint.

    Lovely and what's most important quiet place for cafe after work. Lately they also serve coctail of the week, this week: appletini.

    Cosy bar at The Central Hotel. Perfect place to catch a last pint before bedtime. If you stay at the hotel that is.

    The bar is hidden on the first floor of the hotel. Nice for a quiet pint and a read by the fire. Free wifi too.

    Secret bar, different atmosphere, quieter but definitely authentic! Ask for recommendations at the bar if you're not sure what to get!

    Cute, but awful tequila selection. Stop stocking Cuervo, Dublin bars, it sucks.
