Must visit with panoramic views on the top floor during the tasting. - Really interesting. Namely, if you plan your visit from 11am, no problem, you can take one of the many buses that take you there (including the green, red, dark red Hop On buses) stop just in front, otherwise, take a taxi, because from temple bar for example, the walk is no and not pleasant to see (taxi price between 15 and 20 euros, but worth it. On foot, more than half an hour and after the visit is not of any rest. Especially ask for the audio guide in French. Very welcoming and very nice staff.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory… but with beer! - Yep, it was amazing! I’d like to be all alternative and grumpy and really critical… but it was Disneyland for adults. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory but with beer. The whole experience was amazing. Like the best bits of a VIP tour at Universal Studios. Fascinating and fun in equal measure. The highlight was having a pint of Guinness created with our photo on the head. If you’re vegan, the food options are great. Two vegan sausage rolls with delicious chutney is €4.30. They have a great roasted veg sandwich too. All the staff are lovely and, yeah, it was just very, very special.

Great fun at the Guinness Storefront - I had a very enjoyable time at the Guinness Storehouse. I’d taken a red eye from New York and was determined to power through the day, getting started with this experience and it did not disappoint. As everyone else says, you don’t actually get to see the stuff brewed, but you learn a great deal about the history of Guinness, its impact on the community and city, the marketing, the proper way to drink it, etc. I took my time reading and watching everything I could, so I spent a little over two hours at the Experience. It did have moments of feeling quite crowded, but the crowds felt like they came in waves, so it really didn’t feel overwhelming. The Gravity Bar was a cool way to end the experience and get a view of the city. The gift shop had soooo many neat things I wish I’d had more space to bring back gifts for friends and family. The prices were surprisingly reasonable, too. Enjoy a meal at the 1837—it was very tasty!

Traditional tasting - The visit was friendly but we regret not really seeing the beer design, only explanations on each floor. Good tasting time however once arrived on the top floor with a view of the city.

Nice. - A nice experience not to be missed if you go to Dublin. For me it was very useful to discover the whole Guinness story. A beautiful path that ends with a pint in the Gravity bar with 360-degree views of the city.

Disappointing - Disappointing, & crowded. Visited many years ago when the experience was more authentic. Now it is mainly a selling opportunity for the Brewery. The sparse information dumbed down .No staff knew anything- the women doing the “how to drinking a Guinness “were just reading from scripts and knew virtually nothing when questioned . The only worthwhile bit was the bar on the top floor with good views and pleasant staff, but even here you need to be early in the day to get a table. Instead visit one of the many authentic old pubs in the city.

Expensive for not much for my taste - If you are expecting a great thing you will be disappointed because the presentations to my taste are not terrible by contrast the panoramic view is very friendly in addition with the ticket which is very expensive we offer you a beer.

Disappointing - We booked this experience in the belief that it was similar to the one we did in Amsterdam at Heineken, but I must say that Guinness has an unpleasant surprise in store for us. No explanation just seven floors of “mercto” dedicated to the sale of Guinness products and, as a reward for consistency, a glass of beer to drink on the seventh floor, pressed all together without the opportunity to sit and enjoy the view that is actually the only thing worth entering the Guinness Store House for

Would be a cool experience if there weren't so many people booked at the same time. - MEH. This was kind of disappointing. They just jam as many people as possible into this warehouse. Once you get through each floor and learn about the way they brew Guinness you make your way up to the rooftop lounge to have a pint. Sounds like a great experience but the room was so packed you could barely walk around. There is not nearly enough seating for the amount of people they jam up there. The view in the rooftop lounge is spectacular though so that was a big plus. This tour is not cheap, and although I learned a bit about the brewing process, the large crowds in each room made me skip most of it so its not something I would recommend unless you can go on a day where they are not very busy.

Dreadful Experience - Dear Sir or Madam, Myself and a colleague visited the Guinness storehouse on 9th May 2025. We were met by huge queues waiting to enter and were told by the door staff the venue was very busy. When we entered and started the self guided tour we were forced to abandon it due to the volume of people crowding every exhibit. There were large queues at inadequate toilets and a wasted 57 euros expense. Everywhere we went there were massive lines waiting. We headed for the Grabity area thinking it would quieten down only to find large lines at the bar and inadequate seats. As you see from my ticket I am a pensioner. Experience was dreadful and we left soon after arriving. Very very poor crowd management. Tom Duff
