O'Flaherty's Bar

O’Flaherty’s: A Cornerstone of Dingle’s Cultural Heritage

Located on Bridge Street, O’Flaherty’s Pub (Tigh Tábhairne Uí Fhlaithbheartaigh) stands as a premier destination for traditional Irish music, language, and culture. Under the dedicated stewardship of publican Fergus Ó Flaithbheartaigh, the establishment serves as a vital hub for the community, preserving the authentic spirit of Daingean Uí Chúis. The interior itself is a historical landmark, featuring original Valentia Island flagstones from the 1860s and a bar crafted from the timber of a lost vessel.

Beyond its architecture, O’Flaherty’s is the official headquarters for the Dingle Fife and Drum Band and a revered archive of local GAA history. The Ó Flaithbheartaigh family, renowned for their musical contributions, maintains a vibrant atmosphere where the "trad session" is a nightly staple. With a longstanding open-door policy, the pub continues to welcome musicians and singers from across the globe to participate in its rich cultural legacy.
