BAD BOBS TEMPLE BAR, Dublin

I am a 67 year old US citizen visiting Ireland to scout out places to visit for my university next month. I stopped by this place and asked to use the bathroom and instead of a warm friendly Irish greeting, the two bouncers on the...door blocked my entrance with outstretched arms and told me to go across the street!! I know where my group will NOT be visiting when we come back to Dublin next month!More

Rude door staff

These doorstaff have serious authority issues, definitely tried out for the Gardí and failed so they spend their evenings turning away random people and not giving reson apart from "don't like the look of ya". A small gray hair doorman who claimed he owns the...place ran after one of our group to thaunt him into being aggressive and when he didn't react he walked back to his doorMore

Lovely food, lovely place

We were in Bad Bob's for Tapas last week, and it was fantastic. The food was delicious, the cocktails were great. We had 2 plates each with 2 sides and that was enough for us. It was very busy, so I would suggest to book.

Fab night out

The live music was excellent and the cocktails were €9 each and delicious. There was a great lively atmosphere and we would return next time we're in Dublin.

Not just for tourists!!

Not just for tourists!!!! Finished a wonderful night out in Dublin at Bad Bobs last night. Fantastic music and atmosphere and a proper family run business. Happened to meet half the family as Paddy Snr was celebrating 45 years of marriage to his beautiful wife...who only looks about 45!!. Lovely vibes and lovely people. A must visit while in Dublin. Very close by if staying in the Hard Rock! Brilliant night, can't wait to return 💕More

Great pub

Really fun environment, lovely staff who are happy to help. Super quick bar service. €9 per cocktail, much more affordable than other bars. Live music in the evenings too. Authentic Irish pub vibes. We had tapas too which was average but good value for money.

The best bar in Temple Bar, best music!

The bar is amazing! We were a group of friends looking for a pub with good music, Bad Bobs has it! The live music of this pub is amazing. I think this is the best bar of Temple Bar. Service is also good. Make sure...to be there early because it will be full!More

Would not recommend

Hi, I was able to book a table with my date of birth given, being told Bad Bobs was 18+. I had booked the table a month in advance. On arriving at the door with my girlfriend , we were only told there that you...had to be 21+. I was told it was clear, was on the website and on facebook and instagram. Not once was I told this by email, this was not on the website/instagram/facebook (I checked from across the street after being sent away and checked prior to going ) the bouncer was gave us no proper explantation or evidence and we were forced to spend a night planned a month in advance looking for another place. So overall, I would not recommend Bad Bobs to a friendMore
