The Bailey, 2 Duke St, T 01 670 4939. Mon-Sat 1130-2330, Sun 1600-2330. This busy office workers’ pub serves good food and gets lively in the evenings. Come here to mingle with journalists and arty types, and to sit outside under the gas braziers to watch the street life.

Bleeding Horse, 24 Camden St, T 01 475 2706. Mon-Wed 1200-2400, Thu 1200-0100, Fri and Sat 1200-0200, Sun 1200-2330. The Bleeding Horse has big dark timbers, high 19th-century ceilings and a history going back to Cromwell’s time, but also floors and floors of fun, a studenty atmosphere and an upstairs restaurant.

Chocolate Bar, Hatch St Upper, T 01 478 0166. Mon-Thu 1700-2330, Fri 1730-0100, Sat 1800-0100, Sun 1800-2330.The bar attached to the POD nightclub is just too trendy for words. It’s seriously well designed and attracts a self-consciously gorgeous clientele, with fashion police on the doors to keep it that way.

Davy Byrne’s, 21 Duke St, T 01 677 5217. Mon-Wed 1000-2330, Thu-Sat 1000-0030, Sun 1200-2300. This place heaves by day and night. Remnants of its famous literary past are still in evidence: sketches by Cecil French Salkheld, an amazing old mirror, but not the gorgonzola sandwiches that Leopold Bloom ate here in Ulysses (except on Bloomsday, of course).

The Globe, 11 South Great George’s St, T 01 671 1220. Mon-Thu, Sun 1200-2330, Fri- Sat 1100-0130. Young, fashionable and crowded, The Globe offers good food and occasional live jazz on Sunday afternoons.

Hogan’s, 35 South Great George’s St, T 01 677 5904. Mon-Wed 1300-2330, Thu 1300-0030, Fri and Sat 1030-0230, Sun 1500-2330. Another hangout for young fashionable types, with a huge airy interior and an eclectic music policy.

The International, 23 Wicklow St, T 01 677 9250. Mon-Wed 1130-2330, Thu-Sat 1130-0030, Sun 1100-2300. Arriving at this Victorian pub can be a rather daunting experience, as everybody stops talking to see who’s just walked in. Downstairs is a comedy club and upstairs there’s live music. It’s raucous at times and attracts a very young crowd.

Long Hall, 51 South Great George’s St, T 01 475 1590. Mon-Wed 1100-2330, Thu 1100-0030, Fri 1200-0030, Sat 1030-0030, Sun 1400-2300. If you want a genuinely traditional Irish pub with a glorious interior, this is it.

Messrs Maguire, 1-2 Burgh Quay, T 01 670 5777. Daily 1030- 0130. With a late bar every night, its own micro-brewery, an astonishing bar-food menu, giant TV screens for sports fans and traditional music evenings, Messrs Maguire caters to all comers. There are lots of little nooks and crannies to hang out in and all the requisite faux Victorian wood panelling you could possibly want.
