Grogan's Castle Lounge is the heritage Dublin literary pub, operating since 1899 in the same wood-panelled room. Brendan Behan, Patrick Kavanagh, and Flann O'Brien drank here daily. The most unselfconsciously heritage pub in Dublin.
The signature is the Grogan's toastie, buttered bread with cheese, served at the bar. Cheap pints (Guinness, Irish craft beer), no music, no televisions, no pretensions. The crowd is Dublin literary-class 40-80 and visiting heritage tourists.
