Dublin pub of the week: The trendy Stoneybatter boozer that is an Irish legend's local haunt

Hyne's Bar, located on Prussia Street in Stoneybatter, is comprised of classic Dublin pub interiors and a beer garden surrounded by intriguing art, some of which pays tribute to a local legend who gained internet fame years ago.

That legend is Paddy Losty, a man who "wouldn't be fond of the drinking" but went viral for his love of pints. Paddy is nicknamed the "pintman" after Publin.ie shared a picture of him taken from a booked titled Dublin Pub Life and Lore by Kevin C Kearns.

Hyne's is believed to be one of the local haunts Paddy would have frequented. While it retains its old timey charm, its recent facelift brings a new life to the venue which has become popular with Dubs on the hunt for a unique watering hole in the area.
