We did the tour on a Friday and had no one else but us too so we had a very fun tour with our guide from Australia! The beer tasters were also very nice. I highly recommend
Rascals Brewing Company is an absolute gem in Dublin for craft beer lovers. The beers are excellent — creative, fresh, and full of character. Their brewery tours are also top-notch: fun, informative, and run by staff who are genuinely passionate about what they do. On top of that, the service is consistently excellent, making you feel welcome from the moment you walk in. And let’s not forget the food — their wood-fired pizzas are fantastic, the perfect pairing with a cold pint. Overall, Rascals offers the full package: great beer, great food, and great people. A must-visit spot for anyone who enjoys craft brewing culture.
Good beers, very friendly service, excellent pizzas. Prices a bit high for the area (Inchicore End - 45 min by bus from the Center) but according to the quality of products. Good bargain if you pass by the shop (The Off Licence as its called here): decent prices plus 10% discount if you already tasted their beers (but only rhe same day, so be sure you check well your bill).
Where have I been? Rascals Pub is a place unlike any other. Super cute, youthful place, neon lights, and their beer distillery in the background. All of this is accentuated by pleasant background music that allows for conversation without shouting. The quirky menu features homophones (Meat Me, Dublin Eat, etc.) for the pizzas, and their fantastic beer tasting is absolutely fitting. The pizzas, in addition to their names, also have quirky flavors. Try the one with pudding or the special of the month. The dough is closer to Roman pizza, quite crispy. The house beer teasting was fun and got us talking about the beer flavors. The cheesecake was superb. Prices are average, but well worth the money; we'll definitely be back. You are not paying just for the pizza but for a different experience
Rascals is hands down the best spot for pizza in Ireland. They also offer an amazing selection of their own beers, making it a perfect place to unwind. We’ve been coming here for years, and they’ve never disappointed us. The vibe is absolutely fantastic, and I’d highly recommend trying their brownie dessert, it’s the perfect sweet treat to finish your meal. A couple of years ago, they had a delicious spicy nduja pizza on the menu, which we absolutely loved. Unfortunately, it’s no longer available, and we really miss it. We’re hoping they bring it back someday, as nduja seems to be off the menu entirely. That aside, Rascals is a highly recommended spot, whether you’re planning a casual hangout with friends or a date night. It’s a place we’ll always keep coming back to!
