7 Dublin spots to relax in after a day of sales shopping on Stephen’s Day

If you're going to brave the shops this Stephen's Day, here are some spots that are open for some post retail therapy sustenance.

Christmas is over, and Stephen's Day can feel a little bit sad... if you let it. We recommend a trip into town, a dash around the shops for some bargains, and then maybe some good grub and a drink to finish it all off! Here's some of the spots in Dublin City Centre open on Stephen's Day.

1. The Back Page

Location: Phibsborough If you're not ready for the festivities to be over, The Back Page are holding one of their fantastic Quiz Bingo nights on the 26th! All that trivia you and the fam did over the Christmas dinner table is about to come in handy. https://www.instagram.com/p/CXoPPhsoUhs/

2. Beanhive

Location: Dawson Street For your coffee, and the cutest off around at that, drop into Beanhive on Dawson Street. Not only do they open on Christmas Day, they open 9-5 on Stephen's Day too! Handy for those doing a little browse on Grafton Street. https://www.instagram.com/p/CXrFBfmsBYD/
