Hemi Bar is the cocktail bar at The Gibson Hotel at Point Square in Dublin 1, occupying the hotel’s third floor with views towards the port and 3Arena. Its location makes it particularly convenient for pre-show drinks and dinner, while the relaxed atmosphere also suits a more casual visit when you’re in the Docklands.
The bar has an all-day menu served from midday, with food ranging from casual sharing dishes to more substantial plates. Current options include loaded nachos, an antipasti board, Guinness-smoked salmon, buffalo wings and Caesar salad, alongside burrata and a superfood salad. Larger dishes include burgers, fish and chips, chicken and steak, while vegetarian options are also available. The menu is described as seasonal and subject to change, so the exact selection varies.
Drinks are a major part of the offering, with Hemi serving cocktails, spirits, beer and wine. The hotel also highlights its Red Bean Roastery coffee, making the bar suitable for daytime coffee as well as drinks later in the day.
The interior has a contemporary hotel-bar feel, with comfortable seating and a relaxed atmosphere, while the outdoor terrace is the real draw when the weather allows. From here, guests can take in views of the port and the surrounding Docklands, including the distinctive 3Arena.
Hemi Bar is directly opposite 3Arena, with the hotel describing the walk to the venue as taking around 20 seconds. That makes it an obvious choice for a pre-concert meal or cocktail, and the hotel specifically promotes the bar as a place to meet before heading out.
