John Kavanagh The Gravediggers in Dublin is maybe the most classic Irish Pub on the planet.
Since 1833, for the last eight generations, the Kavanagh household has actually been serving cold pints of Guinness to their patrons. Many say this is the place to get the best pint of Guinness in Dublin, which's stating something.
The bar is called The Gravediggers because they share a wall with the Glasnevin cemetery, where more than 1.5 million Dubliners put to rest. Back then, the older generations of Kavanaghs would offer their beer to the Gravediggers through the boundary fence.
These days, Ciaran Kavanagh, along with his spouse, his sibling and other family, are all keeping the family tradition alive and well.
Their addition: a menu of tapas influenced by Irish food. Now, consumers can go to The Gravediggers not simply for a pint of Guinness, but for standard coddle, beef stew, crispy mac and cheese, and a variety of other fare.

I want to visit there! No TV. Yay!

I saw Guinness, I tapped fast 😂
Go here as often as I can when on the Northside! Guinness is class. To the tourists, the pub is brilliant and well worth a visit when you are here. Please try the Irish spring rolls, Ciaran is doing serious work in the kitchen. I’ll be going for a pint here on Tuesday when work is done.
Thank you so much for stopping by our home & capturing some of it’s atmosphere ❤ thanks to all our great customers for all the support

if you ever find yourself in the South of the Netherlands, in a place called Sittard…come visit “De Gats” <3
Our first trip to Dublin is coming up this October. Your pub was already high on my list of places to visit, but seeing this video makes it a priority. See you in a few weeks!
@kellyscott5675hope we don’t disappoint you
I had lunch there in April. They serve some fine gastropub fare. The Coddle was great, the jalapeño mac n cheese was fantastic as well. The Guinness was delicious.
Ya Dads a hero If only more people had tried to stop Bono playing 😂

An amazing pub with the best Guinness I ever tasted. Was there in June, and I can’t wait to go back to try the food and drink more of the best Guinness in Ireland.

No music, no TVs. Man we need these kind of pubs in the US.

Live in Dublin all my life and never been there must go over one of the days

Saying hello 👋🤗 and Speaking 🗣️ from Milwaukee Wisconsin USA…..08-28-2026❤
“There’s no TV. No music. No Wi-Fi. Just pints and conversation.” As it should be!!
I visited in 2018 and the lunch i had was the highlight of my trip to Ireland. I saw the pavlovas as we were leaving, and she said “I make them myself!” And I really wanted one to go. Next time I will save room for pavlova. Excellent time we had!
Now this is something I would love to stop by at
Awesome 👏
