The Whiskey Reserve Takes Home Top Honours at the 2025 Bar of the Year Awards

We’re absolutely delighted to share that The Whiskey Reserve has been recognised across the board at this year’s Bar of the Year Awards, taking home not one, but three incredible titles:

• 🥇 Destination Bar of the Year 2025
  
  

• 🥇 Whiskey Bar of the Year 2025
  
  

• 🥇 Bar of the Year 2025

From day one, our goal has been to create a space that celebrates Irish whiskey in all its forms, from rare bottles to guided tastings. These awards are a proud moment for the entire team and a reflection of the passion and care we bring to everything we do.

A Destination for Whiskey Lovers

Winning Destination Bar of the Year means a lot. It tells us that what we’ve created is more than just a bar, it’s a place people seek out, return to, and tell others about. So if you're discovering whiskey for the first time or exploring your favourite distilleries in more depth, we’re here to guide you through the experience.

A Toast to Our Sister Bar

The celebrations didn’t stop there. Just around the corner, The Temple Bar Pub was awarded 🥇 Music Bar of the Year 2025, recognising its legendary live music and unbeatable atmosphere.

It’s an honour to be part of a wider team that shares the same commitment to quality and unforgettable experiences.

Thank You for Raising a Glass With Us

To our team, our visitors, our whiskey lovers, and everyone who has supported The Whiskey Reserve since we opened, thank you. These awards are for you as much as for us.

We’ll be raising a glass in celebration, and we hope you’ll join us soon.
