The Brazen Head
Dublin, Ireland
And you thought that hole-in-the-wall in your hometown was old. Established in 1198, The Brazen Head claims to be Ireland's oldest pub, a title that we don't dispute. A few blocks off the normal tourist path, it's known for its live music, which draws in the locals nearly every night. It's not too far from the Guinness brewery, either, but don't forget to leave some room for the traditional stews — after all, what's a trip to Ireland without some real Irish food?
