Wish it had been Whelans. Ive drank there on one and last occasion. There was a smashed pint glass left on our table for the entire 2 hours we were there (it was there when we arrived, but it was the only free table). Kip.

Quite like the Village though

God forbid you might ask bar or floor staff to clear it up for you. No, that wouldn't do at all. :rolleyes:

Along the same lines do any of the regular Whealens goer's think that standards have dropped since the redesign i.e. since converting the old smoking yard into the pub extension.

It might has well been on fire on Sunday night (following night) with the heat inside in the main pup. You have a load of folk crammed in there, prior to the back being opened, and the heat is unbearable - from what I saw most folk were sweltering. There does not seem to be any cool air coming out of the air-conditioning units.

Whelans has been my favourite pub in Dublin but traditionally it was a very comfortable setting and now its just another superpub. I dont mind progress/development and getting a few extra punters in the door but you have to draw the line when you are close to passing out.

Anyone else agree? If all it takes is to pump up the airconditioning then a bit of feedback on this forum may help.
