A comfortable Dublin pub now sadly part of the 'superpub' next door, The Oak contains a fine mahogany interior that supposedly came from an ocean liner. Fine floor and ceiling, and the pint isn't too bad either. In the 1990s, an extension was built on to the roof, earning the sobriquet "the yoke on the oak".
