Step through that classic, cosy Irish pub façade on Jervis Street and you’ll find yourself in one of the most impressive sports bars in Dublin city centre. Three full floors. Multiple screens. A crowd that knows how to get behind a match.

What looks like a quiet neighbourhood local from the outside is, in fact, a cavernous, buzzing World Cup pub that was practically built for moments like this.

Multiple Screens Across Three Floors — Never Miss a Moment

No craning your neck. No squinting at a screen two rooms away. T.P. Smith’s has multiple screens spread across three floors, meaning wherever you settle in, you’ll have a perfect view of every pass, every tackle, and every crucial VAR decision.

Traditional Irish Food to Fuel Your World Cup Experience

You can’t watch 90-plus minutes of World Cup football on an empty stomach. T.P. Smith’s serves up the kind of hearty, honest traditional Irish pub food that Dublin does better than anywhere else.

Think classic Beef & Guinness Stew that warms you from the inside out, proper crispy Fish & Chips, and chicken wings with enough flavour to distract you even between matches. This is traditional Irish food done with care — generous portions, fresh ingredients, served all day from 12pm to 9pm.
