I fell in love at Dick Macks to an Irish rogue, and in a longer lasting love with Dick Macks itself. From the first my friend and I were not treated like tourists and they sang me Irisih lullabies and argued politics and tucked me in my scarf at nite before sending me off. The owner ambled slowly from the... more

Dick Mack's was one of our most memorable stops in Ireland. Truly a trip back in time. Fortunately,we were unencumbered by any other tourist-types when we were there, and so we were able to converse freely with the denizens, who were very humourous and personable.

No doubt a unique place and most certainly a local hangout. However, the small area and the vibe delivered to non-locals was a bit much. I thought the Irish were supposed to be friendly and outgoing? Not here..... Maybe tourist fatigue????? more

We went in here for a quick pint and loved the atmosphere of the place, certainly the most unique pub I've been into. One of the things that struck me was that there were a lot of unfinished drinks on the table, and the reason became apparent a few minutes later when we realised that tourists were being made to... more

Dick Mack's Dingle's most original pub, surely ? A step back in time awaits you here, from the bench seats to the hanging oddments of shoe makers artifacts. The people are wonderful , the craic is brilliant, and the black stuff is sublime ! I was there last October, and a young American guy was in full flow with the... more
