KENNEDYS PUB
HOME OF THE IRISH COFFEE
The story of Irish Coffee’s popularization, ties beautifully into the ambiance of traditional Irish hospitality—something Kennedy’s Pub embodies in its own way.
Kennedy’s has been a Dublin institution since its founding in the 19th century. Over the years, it became a favorite haunt for literary figures, students, and working locals. The pub’s proximity to Trinity College Dublin, along with its rich legacy, made it a gathering spot for famous personalities such as James Joyce, whose footsteps graced the same floors. Joyce even worked as a part-time barman here during his youth.
The pub retains much of its old-world charm, with a cozy, rustic interior and a warm atmosphere. Its wood-paneled walls, low lighting, and traditional décor provide a nostalgic glimpse into Dublin's past. It’s the perfect place to enjoy a pint of Guinness or, more fittingly in the context of your story, a perfectly poured Irish Coffee.
