    It is on the corner of Bedford Row, the former Nevada Smith's bar.

    Cheap drink will always attract skangers.

    What? I thought that was a gay pub. they don't sell pints, they sell cocktails. Plus the owners are a gay couple that own a flower shop on thomas street (I think its thomas street).

    I was in Fedury Burkes the night of the Riot (or A riot) not sure if it was the same one.
    All hell broke loose, People were bottled and Knives were pulled.
    I was oblivious to the start of it as I was shifting some girl out the back at the time,
    I later found out same girls ex was involved in the violence, dont remember
    meeting up with her again.

    The story I first heard (probably untrue) on the night was Bartender short changed some skumbag by mistake, SkumBag tried to bottle bartender, some other fight broke out, Before ya know it Knives were pulled and the Cops were called. Even on the night there was talk about 3 stabbings and 7 bottle'ings, although I did not see this happen
    as there was just crowds in brawls and you could not see who was in the middle,

    When the dust settled I remember Both Male and Female's covered in blood at the end of the night and the Gardai searching people going out the door.

    I was there too, i was too obliterated to remember, i vaguely remember bottles flying back and forth across the dance floor. Fed b's was grand before the summer, they only let students in, ID was strictly enforced. in summer everyone got in, they'd the beer garden as well, i remember i worked in Ted Castles and every friday and saturday night you'd have young fellas going through the old coal yard to hop the wall, thus avoiding the bouncers and id check. It went downhill from there.

    It was a gay bar when it was 'Bar 3' I don't think it's a gay bar now but I'm 100% sure on that. Might drop in there the weekend to see what it is like.

    I meant that deccie dilan is far from being one part of a gay couple who owned the place,as in a previous poster had suggested.

    Is Bob running riddlers now so?

    I heard the owners are the couple who own that flower shop on catherine street. I wasn't sure about it until I heard they didn't serve pints and they make cocktails. also the fact that it used to be gay and a guy that works with me is a raging gay has been there once that I know about (only passing). but I can't say for sure. When I seen the add on the paper I presumed it was because it looked a bit on the other side. but anyway I can't say for sure since i've never been there and don't know anyone else who's been there and confirmed it was a gat place.

    The 'Andy' is not gay in Little Britain, he's the guy in the wheelchair. Daffyd is the gay character.

    Apparently the bottles are all close to sell by date and the spirits are watered down and that's why it' so cheap.

    So maybe it's only temporary so he can get rid of all the drink he had since Mojos and will close up when it's gone.
