The Bakery DISCOVER MORE: restaurants dublin Temple Bar West and Temple Bar East are very different animals. So different they could be opposite sides of the same coin. The eastern end is full of bars, wild nights and out-of-focus selfies. The western end is a place where locals stroll round with newspapers under their arms, with a smile on their face and maybe a chocolate éclair in their hand. They'll have bought the éclair at the Temple Bar Bakery, one of the friendliest spots in the city despite the fact that they've all been up since 5am. CHECK AVAILABILITY
