The Dáil Bar, located at the junction of Cross Street and Middle Street is a focal point for the locals and tourists of Galway to gather over a drink and discuss the day’s events, hence the literal meaning of The Dáil.... “ a meeting place” Over the years, the building has been a family home, a toy shop and is now a licensed premise. The Dáil Bar is just around the corner from some of Galway’s real treasures. Charlie Byrne’s on Middle St, Ireland’s No.1 book shop and Thomas Dillon Jewelers on Quay St, home of The Claddagh ring.
