    its a general question......

    ah the memories ive had in some of those places....., however i dont think ill divulge into any of those ;) .....

    If i had to pick out of that list, then it would have to be Q Bar...

    Fitzimons or somewhere in Temple Bar for the foreign birds, dont go near Irish girls normally when im in ireland, there great in every other country but not here. Then again back in the day Fireworks was a great spot to pull

    Where is "The George" Option?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 861 ✭✭✭deaddonkey


    I've heard of 2 of those places you mention but haven't ever set foot in either of them. The view from outside is enough.

    I like the mezz just cos you meet fun people there and the bands are generally acceptable.

    I don't really have a favourite place to pull.

    And @ Ruggiebear, Phoenix Park, i knew i knew your face from somewhere!!

    There was only ten options and I always thought Barcode was full of 17 year olds? :confused:

    If you voted "A.N. Other" please specify ;)

    Must be the 3 euro drinks that get them in the door. Well that and the Wesley type fun that probably goes on in the toilets ;)

    ROFL:D

    Those options on the list are terrible tbh. I mean, Tramcos? Maybe if your`re a drunken wealthy farmers son who can dance around in your Offaly jersey whilst the DJ plays Skippy the Bush Kangaroo. If you are well done.

    Most Barcode et al regulars (lads) I know are the type who talk sh1te regarding pulling (one mate of mine in particular has fallen in with the ghastly students and spins this sh1te. I remember back in the day we would take the piss out of lads who claimed to have had a dozen birds in one night despite the fact nobody would have seen them with a bird in 6 months. Now hes turned the same, he can NEVER let himself be outclassed by me. If he saw me with a bird that night, he would HAVE TO have pulled two while i was with my one. If I pulled two, while im busy with them he would have to have been with three. And so forth. Some night Ill tell him I was with 17 and see him try outclass me. The funny thing is he always sees me with my bird, but until 3 weeks ago twas months before I saw him with one:D )

    Apolgies for going off on one, it was an add on to the point about the Barcode etc regulars talking out of their holes;)


    As for the best, I suppose most places in Dublin have a relatively decent success rate, the better the music the better the pull rate. Heaven in Blanch, especially in summer, is your best bet for good looking birds, twas a fcukin lethal summer there last year :)

    I suppose Coppers is easy enough, but we arent exactly talking quality in some cases

    *erases Saturday 3 weeks ago from memory*

    Good god, it was my first major alcohol related error of judgement regarding birds in over 18 months.

    remember fireworks??? i think i didnt score there one night EVER

    Would've thought Flannerys would make the list, impossible for a regular or better looking man to avoid scoring there, the women arn't just approachable, they won't wait around and will actively pull you!

    Unfortunately, all the hotties are across the road in the Village, while the 'not quite as attractive' ladies are grabbing your arse in Flannerys...always a very difficult choice for the urbane young gentleman!

    Nightclub is closed for good ( in that location anyway ), and appartments are going in its place.

    It was always too far out of the way of the main part of action in the city centre anyway.

    Heaven in blanch???

    Thats a scary place, full of "howyas", just waiting for you to make the move so their little imbred boyfriends can start a fight.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,368 ✭✭✭IvaBigWun


    I was under the impression they cleaned it up of all the headcases?

    Shiite, forgot all about Flannerys. It'd definitely be in most peoples top 5's for scoring.

    barcode def the place to pull. its not even an option u are going to end up with someone at th end of the night!
    also what did u think of the bartenders??


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,322 ✭✭✭Repli


    Heaven is alright now, been there a few times lately and there was never any fights or trouble - but why you would wanna score the girls there is beyond me ;) Turks Head is a good spot if you're out on the pull.. free admission too!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 184 ✭✭SxE Punk


    I like to cruise around with a group of fellow johns picking up whores.

    Its more honest than what you guys do and at least it takes out all the guess work.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,615 ✭✭✭Mr.Plough


    probably barcode, nice birds, nice crowd, quite studenty on a thurs night.

    im 18 not too long so i couldnt say ive been out in dublin alot.


    and the bouncers are fairly strict in barcode so i doubt its full of 17ers

    Rogue on Dame St. it is!:D


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,368 ✭✭✭IvaBigWun


    I heard Rogue was full of pretentious ****. Dame St is a strange area to have a "cool' bar IMHO.

    Really? I wouldn't think that at all and I think half the bars in Dublin are full of pretentious ****.

    Anyway, my choice would be Doyles.

    Having said that, it´s my local and i´m there most days.

    So if i didnt score there i´d be fcukin worried tbh...

    Is it possible for me to edit out the least popular choices and put in Eg: Barcode?

    Its as easy as you make it yourself :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81 ✭✭oconnoao


    I'm gutted Tramco has suddenly become over 20s....its my local and my favourite place for a fun night out, but i'm only 19! Q-Bar is ok but has lots of foreigners, some scary guys lurking in the dark corners, as does Turks Head.:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,357 ✭✭✭Eru


    Coppers???? Jesus people have some self respect. If your not a guard, nurse or teacher your trying to pull one and its always jammed to the rafters with fat cows (some arent even guards :D )

    Personally I like McGowens and why did Fireworks close down? that place had Q's for miles but I could never pull those fine women.
