Worth itAs a couple
As a couple, The Cobblestone (Smithfield) works.
Widely regarded as the real thing for trad in Dublin — informal sessions where serious musicians play in the front bar, free to walk in and listen. The honest catch: it's small and gets rammed early, the sessions are for listening (no talking over the musicians), and it's a no-frills old boozer, not a polished venue.
