The Bridge 1859

The Bridge 1859 is a pub and restaurant in Ballsbridge, County Dublin, a short walk from the Aviva Stadium and the RDS.

It is a natural gathering point on match days and concert nights, when rugby and football crowds fill the bars, but it also works as a comfortable neighbourhood spot the rest of the time, serving pub food and a full drinks list. The Ballsbridge setting, with its red-brick terraces and embassies, is one of the more handsome parts of south Dublin to wander before or after a visit.
