Cleary’s is one of the oldest pubs in Dublin and with it comes a loaded history. This was a regular waterhole for Irish Republicans Michael Collins and Harry Boland who would meet to discuss their plans for the 1916 Rising. Pictures of many Republicans can still be found on the walls, as well as a large aerial photo of Dublin city centre. A brief scene from the 1996 movie Michael Collins was shot here, as were scenes from The Commitments and Term of Trial (starring Laurence Olivier). Formerly known as the Signal House, and as such it’s mentioned in Ulysses. Very little has changed here since it was built in the late 1800’s.
