Pub with Jukebox

    I like the simple things in life but the hardest thing to find in Ireland is a pub with a jukebox.

    I am heading to Dublin for the weekend next month and see myself drinking all day listening to my selected music but can anyone recommend a pub with a jukebox in the city centre?

    (is there any other recommendations for drink related activities in dublin - we are going on a session all day, girlfriend and I, and would like to do something different)

    The Hairy Lemon.... (rip off b*tads plus the juke box is really only for the day time)

    Downstairs in the international. Highly recommended. Only problem is that the jacks smells like piss+old fat.

    They've done up the jacks.

    Jaysus. Is nowhere sacred. First the jacks in Kennedys and now this. Back of Brussels!!!

    Last time I visited the Flowing Tide on Abbey St they had a great jukebox in the basement...it was the perfect place to sit all afternoon having beer and then get that special feeling when you emerge drunkenly into the daylight.

    Haven't been in for ages but the downstairs bar in Bruxelles (the one to the right as you come down the stairs) used to have a great Jukebox.

    They rarely open the basement there anymore.

    Whelans got rid of their Jukebox.

    Is there any other pubs in Dublin that have a Jukebox ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,918 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    Sweeneys on Dame St have one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,730 ✭✭✭✭entropi


    I think T.P. Smyths on Jervis St. still have one upstairs, and I'm not quite sure, but thought I seen one in The Foggy Dew before...could be mistaken though.

    Smyths have one downstairs tucked away in the corner so easy to miss. Not sure if it's a recent addition as would drink in there maybe three or four times a year and only noticed it at Xmas

    I never saw a Jukebox in Sweeneys when I was there is that a new development ?

    No idea if it's new or old. I was only ever in there once a few weeks ago.
    There is one by the back door by the smoking area.
    It was on random and The Pogues Fairytale of New York came on ha.
    So I had to play a few songs to get rid of it.

    Gypsy Rose have a jukebox if you like rock and metal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,534 ✭✭✭gaiscioch


    19 O'Connell had a jukebox last time I was there. I remember listening to A Good Heart by Feargal Sharkey on it (random memory). I think they might have changed the name since then (but it seems the jukebox is still there :pac:)

    Foggy Dew doesn't have one. The Mezz (bit of a kip) on Eustace Street does.

    Whereabouts in mezz is the Jukebox ?

    I was there last year but I didnt see one.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,383 ✭✭✭✭Birneybau


    Used to be on a pillar, facing the bar.

    Not to everyone's taste maybe but Fibbers has a brilliant jukebox,one of the best in town.

    I think Fibbers is in a dodgy area ?

    Best in terms of selection ?

    In my experience yes,but as I mentioned Fibber's itself wouldn't be to everyone's taste.Personally i love the place.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 702 ✭✭✭Simon2015


    For some reason they have got rid of the Jukebox in Mercantile on Dame St.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,289 ✭✭✭Howard the Duck


    Gypsy Rose has a jukebox


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,559 ✭✭✭✭AnonoBoy


    Oscar's on Fishamble Street have an online jukebox - you select your picks from your smartphone. Not a great selection available from what I remember though.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 702 ✭✭✭Simon2015


    The Palace bar also have a Jukebox. They have a massive selection of songs.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 531 ✭✭✭Texas Jack


    Fibbers definitely has the best jukebox


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 24,878 ✭✭✭✭arybvtcw0eolkf


    Gypsy Rose has a jukebox

    Which has been updated in the last few weeks.

    Lol I thought so too but that Out of Order sticker is just so the staff can play their own stuff on the sound system behind the bar - I was there last thursday and the barman told me it works and to put money in - he lowered his volume and I was on jukebox music all night!

    Karma Stone? Well yeah, if you don't value your life! Last time I was there some lad was plugged outside :D:eek:

    The weird thing about the Jukebox in Oscars is that once you have their app installed you can control it from anywhere in the world.
