The Laurels in Clondalkin, Dublin is celebrating being named National Pub of the Year at the Irish Pub Awards 2025 and National Local Pub of the Year. A cornerstone of the Clondalkin community for generations, The Laurels is renowned for its warm hospitality, quality food, and vibrant atmosphere.
Under the ownership of Louis Fitzgerald and led by General Manager, Damien Long, the pub has become a cherished “home from home” for locals.

Inside, guests enjoy freshly prepared meals made with locally sourced ingredients, a global-inspired cocktail menu, and weekly specials like Steak Nights and Family Friday Meal Deals. The pub’s entertainment offering includes live music every weekend, big-screen sports, and seasonal celebrations that bring people together across generations.
The Laurels also opens its doors to local groups, hosting craft fairs, senior citizens’ afternoon teas, and outings with its long-running Golf Society. The Laurels isn’t just a pub, it’s the beating heart of Clondalkin. Winning the national title is a testament to its enduring spirit and community impact.
