101 Limerick is a multi-level O’Connell Street bar and restaurant with a collection of distinct rooms, including the Yard, Piano Bar, Secret Garden and Opium. Cocktails, food, late-night events and group occasions are central to the offer, so it works as much for a large gathering as a single room within the building.

Score context
Six-room O’Connell Street complex: piano bar, rooftop garden, Opium club and basement pub. Groups praise cocktails, DJs and hen-night energy; a persistent minority reports rude or arbitrary door staff. Score sits mid because the door experience splits the room.
