Doheny & Nesbitt is a Victorian pub and restaurant on Baggot Street in Dublin, Ireland. The pub is a tourist attraction and notable political and media meeting place and has been described as "one of the most photographed" pubs in the city.[2][3][4][5]

In his 1969 book Irish Pubs of Character, Roy Bulson describes the establishment thus: "Over 130 years old, it still maintains its original character. You can see old whiskey casks, pumps and tankards in the bar and the wood partitions, marble-topped tables together with the antique mirrors give a genuine and pleasant atmosphere in which to drink".[6]

It was acquired by Tom and Paul Mangan for over IR£1m in 1987 and is still owned by them as of April 2020.[1]
