Our Take
Aungier Street's Hidden World 50 Best Speakeasy
The Sliding Door is a hidden Aungier Street basement speakeasy — accessed through an unmarked sliding door. The 32-seat room is dimly lit with leather banquettes, an antique cocktail library, and a long mahogany bar. World's 50 Best Bars regular since 2023.
The cocktail program is built on classics with hyper-modern technique. Bartenders work with hand-cut ice and squeezed-to-order citrus. Reservations required two weeks ahead.
Pair with Vintage Cocktail Club for a complete Dublin speakeasy evening.
