Gather around girlies, we’ve found the best places to BYOB in Dublin, because who doesn’t want to save a bit of money in January without pressing pause on your social life!?
We’ve listed all our faves below, so without further ado, we present to you:
Keshk, Dublin 4
Keshk is a Mediterranean restaurant on Merrion Road with NO CORKAGE – yes, you read that right. Just order two courses per person or pay a €5 charge.
This BYOB option is available every day, Monday to Sunday, and the food is fab. You may remember Keshk on Mespil Road, which closed down in 2023. Well, it’s back, and you can still find all your favourites. FYI – you must try the hummus.
Hawksmoor, Dublin 2
Hawksmoor is conveniently located on College Green and offers €5 corkage all day on Mondays. If you want to head there Tuesday-Sunday, corkage is €25 per 750ml bottle equivalent. It’s definitely worth grabbing a bottle from your local offo and heading in for the fab food and great atmosphere.

Dada, South William Street
Dada is a Moroccan restaurant that knows how to party! Corkage is FREE from Sunday to Wednesday and just €5 for wine and €2 for beer the rest of the time (but you’ll need to hit a €35 minimum spend per person across two courses to get in on this).
Saba, South William Street & Baggot Street
Saba offers BYOB at their South William Street and Baggot Street locations on Mondays for just €5 corkage, so grab your favourite bottle and make Monday feel like Friday!
Zakura, Ranelagh, Wexford Street & Upper Baggot Street
If Japanese is more your thing, head over to Zakura for some Sushi and BYOB for €8 corkage per bottle (and for €1 per beer). This is available at their Ranelagh and Wexford Street locations. You can also bring wine to their Upper Baggot Street spot for €8 corkage per bottle but heads up, girlies – Lower Baggot Street is a sake-only zone, so this offer won’t fly over there.
