    TBH - it's the value that attracts the scummier, more pints for you dole, and all that bull.

    IMO if your old enough to enter a pub you should have learned this lesson by now.

    Im not a mod on limerick city forum. but a bit of advice, be very careful what you say on a forum, anything you say counts as publishing and can cause all manner of problems.
    An Smod has snipped ur post, i expect no more will come of it.

    I was in there a few weeks back and called a bottle of Bud and a bottle of Heineken. The bottle of Bud was from a multi~pack.(330ml). It says not to be sold separately:eek:

    Maybe that's why they are so cheap.;)

    20 bottles in Supervalu at the moment costs €16.99
    20 bottles in Bitter End cost €60.00 = nice little earner.
    We wont even go into the legality side of it:cool:

    Was there on Thursday for my own grads and even though I was sceptical about the place cos of boards I really enjoyed it. Good laugh, good music and even though it was a young crowd they were grand...nearly all villiers

    OK, I know I am dragging up an old thread here but I was in the pub for a quick drink on Saturday and what a sh1thole that place is. No taps, hardly any furniture, slot machines, only a few shaven headed customers (I know I will get given out to for this one!), 3 burly bouncers and now 3.20 or 3.40 a bottle! False advertising or what??!

    What this pub is doing is anyone’s guess but it’s hardly making money – I wonder is it a front for some other activity? I doubt any of the businesses on Bedford Row are happy that the bar is there, and how they have a licence is anyone’s guess. The LVA should really not stand for this – they are spending a fortune on radio adds trying to entice people back into pubs and a place like this only ruins the good name of publicans in general.

    That is what i was thinking. How is this dump allowed to Function in the city centre. I thought they were trying to encourge people into the city centre?? Bedford row is mostly been vandalised now from what i can see.

    Nice generalisation. Apart from the Harris statue being vandalised, which was before this pub opened in any case, where is the vandalism occuring on Bedford Row?

    I think Bedford row is too wide actually. Cruises street is a nice width.

    @ Tom Collins.....

    What bar do you work for?????

    This is Limerick not New York where the mafia may be involved in bars and clubs.. ha

    It`s advertised as a bottle bar!!!
    People advertise new business!:D

    Man you need to get a life, shaved heads and burly bouncers.
    What hair Style do you have?

    Biggest pile of piss I`ve heard in a while:D

    Bedford row is perfect, although the bitter end just ruins it, a more classy pub would be much better for there! Loads of space outside too for tables and chairs!

    Last time i was down there it looked like someone had attempted up uproot one of those stone bollards/seats. No mean feat as they look like fairly sturdy structures!! they were also cracked or large chunks of stone chipped off them. I don't know, this was a while ago so maybe they have repaired them since then.

    The Bitter End has had a make over, My friend was in there last night and said there still is a bit of work to be done but it looks much better. I will pop in there on Sunday and have a look, I never had a problem with the place.

    I passed this place this morning. They have done a very decent job on the outside of it. Nice paint job and a proper outside seating area.
