Toner's Pub or James Toner's Pub is a traditional Irish pub on Baggot Street in Dublin, Ireland. A pub has been in operation on the site since 1818 and it has been known as Toner's since coming under the ownership of James Toner in 1921.[4][5][6]
The pub has been known to be frequented by politicians and media figures owing to its proximity to the Dáil and Government buildings.[7][8][9][10][11][12]
Toner's is situated on Lower Baggot Street in close proximity to other notable pubs and eateries including The Baggot Inn, Doheny & Nesbitt and the Merrion Hotel/Restaurant Patrick Guilbaud.
The Quinn family own the pub along with nearby pubs the Waterloo, the 51 bar on Haddington Road and the Lansdowne Hotel.[13]
