The Oval Bar is an authentic Irish Pub situated idyllically in the heart of Dublin City. Housed by a beautiful Victorian building with most of its period features still intact, The Oval is the perfect place to escape from the hectic hustle and bustle of the city outside. Located on Middle Abbey Street right at the hub of commercial life in the city, The Oval provides a haven of welcome and warmth for office workers on lunch, busy shoppers looking to recharge their batteries, visiting tourists looking for the ‘Craic’ and music, cinema and theatre goers looking for a bite to eat and a drink before or after their show. Once you step inside you will experience the relaxed and convivial nature of this charming pub. Our Staff are welcoming and friendly and will ensure that your stay is a pleasant one. With over 3 floors of seating and a large function area with its own private bar facilities available to rent we can accommodate any size group. We also have an outdoor seating area for those lazy Dublin summer evenings. Our kitchen serves a full menu daily with Traditional Irish Stew being one of our specialities! Other dishes on offer can be found on our menu page. The Oval has long been renowned as an exceptional place to watch ‘the match’, we show all the major sporting events on our wide screen LCD TVs and has also a great atmosphere for pre or post match celebrations for patrons going to and from Croke Park. The Oval – home of the best Pint of Guinness in Dublin, try it, you won’t be disappointed!

Had some food here on Monday before a gig in the Academy. Not bad, decent burger and chips. Bangers and mash looked great though. Service was fine, prices were a bit steep for pub grub. The pint of Guinness was good, but it still kills me in Dublin having to pay more than €4 for a pint of anything. The quicker they publicans learn the more money they'll make. There is nothing like the sheer joy you get when a pint is less than 4 quid :)!

Popped in here for a quick bite on Obama day! I had a lovely chicken curry with chips, which was very tasty and well presented. The staff are friendly, and it didn't feel as awkward as it usually does, to eat my dinner up at the bar! Boyfriend had a steak sandwich. Wasn't the best cooked or quality of steak but it was good value for money. Will eat here again
