The Dubh Linn Gate Irish Pub’s origins are rooted in Ireland’s traditional heritage. Long ago, back in the mists of time, the name “Dubh Linn” – Irish for “black pool” – was given to the dark pool of water that still lies today beneath the proud heart of Dublin City. Located close to what is now the gate of the Guinness Brewery, the dark waters from this pool were the inspiration for Arthur Guinness’ “Perfect Pint”. Guinness has been brewed in Dublin since 1759.
Designed and handcrafted in Ireland, the Dubh Linn Gate Pub and Restaurant was transported piece by piece around the world to the the ground floor of The Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside. The Pan Pacific Whistler Mountainside is located at the base of magnificent Blackcomb Mountain, just north of Vancouver, British Columbia. Enhanced by a huge 100 seat outdoor patio, the Dubh Linn Gate has a dream location, standing toe-to-toe with the gondolas, chair-lifts and ski-slopes of North America’s busiest four-season mountain resort.
The Dubh Linn Gate is unsurpassed in uniting this exceptional location with authentic Irish pub charm. Opening in May 1998, the “Gate” is decorated to showcase a pictorial journey through Ireland’s culture. It’s the place to have great times, to meet friends, to celebrate your time in Whistler. Over a half a million pints of Guinness later, the Dubh Linn Gate Old Irish Pub has become Whistler’s ultimate après-ski experience. It is destined to become Whistler’s premiere party center for the upcoming 2010 Olympics and Paraolympic games. Your trip to Whistler is not complete without a visit to ‘The Gate.’
