The Bailey

The Bailey used to be a fairly typical Dublin pub, but it has transformed itself into a sophisticated and gay-friendly establishment with a continental feel. People sit at the tables on the street outside even on a cold day, as the narrow street seems to create its own micro-climate. Situated just off Grafton Street, this is a great place to sip a gin and tonic and watch the beautiful people saunter by. Literary fanatics will savor the fact that the pub also has a connection with James Joyce's Ulysses.
