Byrne's food reputation, in which seafood is the specialty.
If

crab dishes.
There is also a full range of hot meals and salads to
compliment these and, as often as not, you can enjoy a lunch or
an evening meal of oysters and Guinness.

The decor of Davy Byrnes is original, authentic and pre Second
World War in theme. You will notice the three educational murals
of Joycean Dublin by Liam Proud, the priceless murals of the 1940's
by Cecil French Salkeld, who was Brendan Behan's father-in-law and
the fine sculptors of Eddie Delaney and John Behan.
If you get the opportunity to examine the murals when the premises
is not busy, you will notice one of the man that first came to this
premises one hundred years ago - Davy Byrne. As he surveys the premises
from his majestic throne, you can reflect on an age that is past
but not forgotten in a premises which is one of Dublin's most active
fashionable and sought out watering holes. |
