Enjoying the Pipe in Good Old Dublin

I travel a lot but I love to come back to Dublin because of this wonderful architecture and well-known good humour of Dubliners. My favourite area is around Grafton Street: Beautiful Merrion Square with Georgian houses, South Anne Street and peaceful Duke Street. There is that Big City Feel in a small city, which probably describes Dublin best. When strolling around town, I like to have a pint in Kehoe’s or the International Bar, both Dublin landmarks with a cosy relaxed atmosphere. The restaurant scene is so rich and diverse. With a wide range of cuisines, you can enjoy dishes from around the world at a reasonable price. My picks would be Dunne and Crescenzi, Bang Restaurant and Cliff House, with their nice ambiance and delicious dishes.
The Peterson shop is a landmark in the city visited by people from different paths of life. In the past, our factory was located just around the corner, near St. Stephen’s Green. Once in Grafton St, we have recently moved to a beautiful listed building on Nassau Street . All these events emphasise our close relationship with the city centre. What is more, it is also one of the oldest businesses in Dublin, which soon will be celebrating 150years in business. And we believe it is just the beginning.
