The Stag's Head

The Stag's Head Pub began its life as one of the city's favorite watering holes in the 1870s. It was the first pub to have electricity in the city, and was a regular haunt of James Joyce. The bar is a real tribute to the tradition of the Dublin bar with its leather chairs, stained glass windows, big mahogany bar with red connemara marble top, and lunchtime snugs. It is still as cozy as it was in its gas lamp days.
