Directions to "The Bridge"

    Hi folks, I've arranged to meet somebody important at a bar/pub called "The Bridge" in the city centre. My only problem is that I have no idea how to get there as I've never been and I can't find it on google maps for the life of me. I have no number for him either.
    I was given this drawing and it's all I have really so if anyone could help me out I'd really appreciate it:

    The drawing of a beer is supposed to be "The Bridge", ignore the wee man, and I'm not sure what the Connelly Town marker is for. I was told to go about 1.5/2km up from the top of O' Connell street and take the right at a cross roads (?) and that "The Bridge" would be on that street.

    Once again, if you can offer any help, I'd massively appreciate it as I don't want to miss this meeting.

    Good possibility that you seek 'The Cross Guns Pub" at Cross Guns Bridge in Glasnevin.

    I'm guessing its the bridge in Summerhill.

    6 Summerhill Parade
    Dublin 1

    Thanks so much Dionysius2 and Random_Name, I'll be checking them both out but I think it's probably the one in Summerhill.

    It could be the place on Westmoreland Street, where Bewleys was?

    Hi OP,
    Going by your directions I'm going to presume it's a bar that I used to drink in that was called the Bridge a few years ago but is now called Sullivans bar (I was there on Friday).

    If you head up O'connell street and cross O'connell bridge the street splits into a triangle (the crossroads I presume)

    The left hand street is D'Olier street the right hand is Westmoreland street.
    The bridge used to be located in the basement of Bewleys as a previous poster stated but both are now closed.

    Sullivan's bar is where Bewlys was on street level.
    Hopre this helps.

    Sounds like 'down' O'Connell Street to me.

    Hi Pedantic Peter here :P

    It was always O'Sullivans. The Bridge bar was down the stairs.

    Cheers for that.

    I'm also a pedantic fecker and if I read a post and absolutely knew there was a mistake I probably wouldn' be able to sleep :pac:

    The Ha'penny Bridge Inn has always been known as "The Bridge"

    Has it? I always hear it referred to simply as The Ha'Penny as opposed to The Bridge.

    That should be on Dorset Street, up from the top of O'Connell Street and turn right at a cross roads, less than 1.5km though. But definitely not D'Olier Street or Ballsbridge :))
    There is The Temple pub on the corner of Dorset St and Temple St, couldn't think any bridge around.
