The Blue Bus is an awesome pizzeria with decent prices and at times they have fun deals like: “if your name is Pedro, you will receive a free pizza today”. You can also rent a waterpipe there. Read more

One of the best pubs in dublin. great on sundays. They also support local breweries. The garden has been renovated and it is not good anymore. The music is great but the best part is the crowd..

The staff here is incredibly friendly and nice, always in a good mood (Italian good mood!). They makes you feel at home. Try the coffee and the food during daytime, any Panino is a good choice.

Without a doubt the coolest and nicest cafe I've ever been cheap and wonderful food! Staff are amazing a bring a smile to your face!

Lively cafe with all the chaos of Italy by day (run by Italians!). Tasty food, wifi. Great spot, but noisy for working! Switches to different proprietors and becomes a pub at 4pm

The place is fantastic, great atmosphere! Specially the terrace... Beers a bit expensive though (5€ for a Hoegaarden) so you might wanna stick to the daily specials (e.g. 2x10€ on cocktails!)

The hipster heaven with good drinks, music, best pizzas in town from the bus (also gluten free) and trendy people. Many music events and small nightmarkets

Nice beer, pizza is good, friendly staff, quite crowded and not in the best part of town. Nice vibe most of the time though. Pizza deal and token is nice and flexible with vegan/dairy free options

My favorite spot in Dublin! Great beer garden, fun crowd and excellent pizza. The food stalls next door are also great if pizza isn't your thing.
Thomas RuschkeJanuary 9, 2016
Great atmosphere, but you'll wait forever (10+mins) for a drink at any of the bars. Pizzas in the bus are reason enough to come here (they are delicious!)

It's one of my favorite place in Dublin, it's cheap with good cocktails and beer, music is very good, and you can also eat pizza bus-made! Lovely

Very hipster, very crowded on weekends and you can also find a great vegan pizza over here in the blue bus. One of the top spots to go out.

One of the most characteristics pubs in Dublin. The entrance room is shaped as a coffin and there is a double deck bus / pizzeria in the back garden

Entry is through a revamped old man’s pub which conceals the deceptively large semi-covered and heated outdoor area at the back, DJs, Buckfast Tonic Wine

Hip beer garden, offers beer specialities/ ginger beer/ GF beer/ decent wine offer/ no homemade lemonade. The staff not on the ball..

Nice place to go if you don't like the commercial music clubs in city center. Get a coffee in the morning (strongly recommended!). If you are there in the evening try the pizza!

Most Brooklyn bar in all of Dublin. They host a flea market on Sunday once/month and it's deadly during the summer!
Claudio MeloniJuly 11, 2012
One of my favourite place in Dublin!! Good music and good ambient! If you go during the day you can alsi taste typical italian food..try the hot chocolate!!
Eamon O'CallaghanAugust 6, 2014
The pizza is amazing, made by people who are passionate about their food! Do yourself a favour and eat it in the converted bus out the back!

great coffee & lovely food. Great place for lunch, especially if you have a bit of time to enjoy a pint and the chilled atmosphere.

Pizza from the Blue Bus is nice, one the best smoking gardens in the city, good selection of drinks!

Simply put: a must visit when in Dublin. Gives the city part of it's atmosphere and gathers a nice crowd.

Don't stay in the small front room! Double decker bus out back with lots of space! Pizza and beer deals aren't bad!

It's four places in one: a regular pub, a dance bar, an open patio and a cozy pizza place. Can't miss.

Outdoor area is great. Good music. Nice atmosphere.

Great terrace, great music and delicious pizzas
Anthony ZacharzewskiOctober 6, 2017
Noisy and crowded. If you want a traditional Irish pub, this isn’t it. If you want street food and music, it could be.
Eabha MckeeverJanuary 28, 2018
Really good pizza and it’s dog friendly! 🐶

The Bernard Shaw was at one stage just another one of many pubs between Dame St and the canal, but since Bodytonic got involved, it has become uber-trendy & prone to all sorts of hipster affectations.
