Temple Bar luggage storage

Convenient Temple Bar luggage storage

The most recognizable Dublin neighborhood is its infamous nightlife district. While it’s hardly a residential area, the cobbled streets of Temple Bar are lined with some of the most iconic and bustling Irish pubs in the country. Tucked between the River Liffey and Dame Street, this compact but lively area attracts international tourists of every kind, which is why locals tend to avoid it. Still, it’s famous for a reason. Stopping by a Temple Bar pub for a pint and some traditional Irish music (or a “session”) is the quintessential Dublin experience. One of the most iconic images of Dublin you’ll find is the legendary pub of the same name, and that’s not a bad place to start. 

It’s first and foremost a nightlife quarter, but there are plenty of other comforts on offer. You won’t have a tough time finding a solid restaurant to grab a bite or even the Temple Bar Food Market. Your shopping (the exception being Temple Bar Book Market) and sightseeing should be done elsewhere, but Temple Bar is an appealing place for a stroll even if you don’t feel like drinking due to locations like the Irish Film Institute and the New Theater. If you need to find luggage storage near Temple Bar, Bounce has convenient locations to lighten the load so you can hit the pub without your gear weighing you down.
