The Stapleton
Right in the heart of Powerscourt Townhouse Centre, The Stapleton is the kind of Dublin bar you’ll be glad you found.
Inspired by the craft and balance associated with Michael Stapleton, the space nods to its historic setting without ever feeling formal or precious. It’s relaxed, welcoming and full of character - somewhere you can call in for a perfectly poured pint, meet friends after work, or settle in for an easy evening in good company. The focus here is simple: great drinks, a warm atmosphere and proper Irish hospitality.
A space that feels instantly comfortable, whether you’re a regular or visiting Powerscourt for the first time.
Behind the bar you’ll find a carefully chosen selection of beers, whiskeys, wines and classic cocktails - whether you’re in the mood for something familiar or keen to try something new.
Downstairs, it’s bar-led and informal - perfect for a spontaneous pint, an after-work catch-up, or a Saturday afternoon that turns into evening. Upstairs, the Lounge offers a slightly more settled pace, with table service and a dedicated menu, while still feeling like part of the same easy-going space.
If you’re visiting Powerscourt or just passing by, you don’t need a reason to call in. Open Wednesday-Sunday, come in, enjoy a drink and stay a while.
“This is an elevated cocktail bar!
My fiance and I stumbled across it during our holiday in Dublin. It was so vibey, everyone was accommodating and the drinks were great. We enjoyed it so much that we went back again before leaving Dublin.”
