The Back Page

Love this place! Laid back vibe, board games, tasty pizza and Moscow Mules 2 for € 10.
They hold quiz nights, ping pong tournaments and other cool things to get involved with.

One of my favourites in Dublin. Great for a few pints and the match or some pizza and wine with the girls midweek.

been here a few times and its already one of my favourite bars in dublin. I hate noisy bars where you cant hear anything anyone is saying and there is no where to sit.
The back page is really chilled out with a lovely atmosphere, cheap drinks, loads of sports stuff on loads of tv’s if thats your thing (it isnt mine) and lots of great board games that are really fun in a group. Very friendly and helpful staff as well.
I had the pizza here too and it was delicious, full of flavour and pretty cheap. Great bar.

I love this place, mainly for the great selection of craft beers and board games.
Pizza is good, my choice was Conor Mcgregor with chorizo and pepperoni.
What I liked most was the mix of modern and old with a range games and a pizza menu with the old décor style of the pub.

Pizza and a pint, what a simple concept. Arguably the only place on the Northside doing quality pizzas in a pub, and worth the trip 100%
The pub itself has been revamped since its Red Windmill days. It’s now more modern but still classic in aspects. There’s a game room upstairs, TVs everywhere and a nice smoking garden out back.
The menu is very cool, we both had pizza and it was awesome. Plenty more besides that as well to choose from.
Drinks are no crap on tap and staff are friendly. Great addition to bustling D7.

Long planned visit after hearing a lot about the place. Drinks reasonably priced, interesting food selection. Tempted all night by the smell of the pizza base but the January diet put paid to that. Could do with a pool table and toilet upstairs. Darts amateurs + pints = requirement for nearby toilet.

Came here for the Ireland v Scotland game. Place was absolutely rammed to the brim. Atmosphere was great. Crowd was of a good variety. I recommend the pizza. From what i hear it is from the same people who make the pizza in the big blue bus. Its amazing. On a quite night you and a few friends can sneak off upstairs to the gaming room. Yes, a gaming room. It has a pool and table tennis table. Downstairs they’ve got a sort of snug area with a PlayStation and Fifa15. Nice little spot for some group banter. I would definitely recommend popping in for a look. Nice to have a local like this in Phibsboro.

This is a really nice pub. Not too hipstery or up itself — it’s a really nice combo of old fashioned pub with new fashioned sensibilities, like craft beer (yawn) and some fairly whopper cocktails (not so yawn). Good pizza, and lots of other random happenings, like the Bring The Toys night where they played the toy show, and everyone brought along a toy for Temple St Hospital.
They have weekly pingpong tournaments, and at this time of year, hot apple cider, mulled wine and hot mince pies. Winner!

Finally! A pub in Phibsboro that suits all. The Back Page is a place to go for a coffee, a pint, a pizza or a cocktail.
The music is great (think Talking Heads, Sister Sledge etc). The staff are ridiculously friendly, not to mention knowledgeable about their vast selection of craft beers and cocktails. A special mention should be made of their coffee and tea which they source from 3FE and wall & keogh respectively.
They also serve pizza, salads and nibbles. I have not yet sampled but I look forward to doing so. Especially as all is cooked in house.
But that’s not the best bit. The best bit is all the different games you can play there, there’s even a dedicated PlayStation room! That’s also ping pong, darts, arcade games etc.
Top all this off with a cosy, heated beer garden and you have all the makings of an excellent night out.
