“ Fun divy and good value. Friendly locals and funny vibe, recommend to try. A locals joke about it is growing the tall tale ”
“ Since it's probably the only bar in Dublin it gets popping. I thought it would be a normal dive bar with shitty drinks, but the bartender made everything from scratch. My friend had a margarita and they made it from scratch! Very impressive. Vibe is definitely small town dive bar, which was great! Probably will go back at some point/ ”
“ Amazing people Amazing service Great atmosphere Great place to relax and unwind after a long day at work!! ”
“ Clean establishment with a friendly local group. We had a great time hanging out with Gina and the crew. Drinks are strong and reasonably priced. Thanks, Gina for taking great care of us! ”
“ We came here after a wedding a few weeks ago. Our bartender was super nice & patient. We warned her we were the first of a bigger wedding party and she seemed grateful for the heads up. Worth stopping by if you're in the area for sure. I'll be back! ”
“ I'm a happy introvert, so I'm definitely not the target demographic for pubs, but even I like coming to the The Back Lounge. The most remarkable aspect of it is the quality of the staff. In the years I've been a semi-regular there, I've never once seen a barkeep there who made me wonder how they got hired and/or how they've stayed on and/or how anyone puts up with them. I know nothing about business management strategy, but I'm pretty sure that consistently excellent staffing doesn't happen by accident. Marta definitely has an eye for talent, and that talent directly fosters the pleasant mood. I like it! ”
“ Love this place! Odd location surrounded by auto repair shops, but has a great rock n roll vibe inside. Bartenders are great. Decor is cool: light fixtures over bar are made from drumsticks--some signed by bands like Metallica. Lights over pool tables are made from drums.(see pics) ”
“ The Back Lounge, formerly Evie's, is a fun little spot to get your drink on, play pool, or darts. We stop here every year on our pub crawl fundraiser. The bartenders are really nice, and so are the patrons. There is a very comfortable vibe, it's welcoming, not at all stuffy, and I instantly feel like having a seat and hanging out. Last year two guys asked me why we all had matching shirts, I explained what we were up to, and they bought Jell-O shots for our entire group. They were quite tasty btw! It's always a fun time, and I look forward to returning. ”
