The Guinness Storehouse
Dublin, Ireland

Yes, it’s touristy—and yes, it’s absolutely worth it. The Guinness Storehouse is part museum, part immersive experience, and all-around iconic. From learning the brewing history and quirky ad campaigns, to watching the perfect pour unfold pint after pint, it’s a journey every Guinness fan should take.

The real highlight? Sipping a fresh pint in the top-floor Gravity Bar, where the 360° views of Dublin are just as satisfying as the beer. Bonus points if you fuel up beforehand with the Guinness stew in the café—comfort food doesn’t get much better.

I’d go back in a heartbeat, and if you’re in Dublin, you definitely should too.

🍺 Pro Tips for Visiting the Guinness Storehouse

1. Book Tickets in Advance
   The Storehouse gets busy—especially mid-day and weekends. Booking online guarantees your spot and often includes discounts or skip-the-line access.

2. Go Early or Late in the Day
   Crowds peak between 12–4 PM. Visiting first thing in the morning or later in the afternoon gives you more space (and a better shot at a window seat in the Gravity Bar).

3. Take Your Time on the Tour
   Don’t rush through—it’s self-guided, and the exhibits are super engaging (and very photogenic). The interactive Guinness ad history section is especially fun.

4. Don’t Skip the Food
   The on-site restaurant, Arthur’s Bar, serves hearty Irish dishes—grab the Guinness stew or fish & chips. It’s honestly some of the best pub food you’ll get in the city.

5. Learn to Pour Your Own Pint
   If your ticket includes the Guinness Academy experience, take it! You’ll learn how to pour the perfect pint and get a certificate to prove it. Very fun, very Instagrammable.

6. Enjoy the Gravity Bar Views—Slowly
   Once you hit the 7th floor, take your time. It’s the highest bar in Dublin with panoramic views, and it’s worth lingering (ideally with your freshly poured pint in hand).
