No it's genuinely official. It's up on their facebook page. I think the girl interviewing works there.

I saw it on their page the other day but I've been banned from commenting because of a comment I left ages ago.

It's an absolute hape of ****e. No thought went into it. Pure muck.

Interviewer: And do you get a good response?

Hardly surprising that the place is gone into receivership judging by that video, I'm surprised it's taken that long!

The one is Waterford is equally **** by the way, in case you couldn't guess!

Good rock music they say and all I heard was a cover band playing Bryan Adams - Summer of 69

Well I think it's odd it's gone into receivership when it has a university on its doorstep and no competition or very little, seeing as it's 40 minutes from town and is better than the other nightclubs within reach.

I went there once when I was in Kildare for a weekend a while back. Thought it was one of the worst nightclubs I'd ever been in.

I was there once. Unfortunately I don't remember much about it. I was very, very drunk. CAIRO!

"Its the best spot in maynooth!"

Thats hardly saying much is it... thought the town was a dive when I went out in it once with some college mates. Which is odd considering its got a college in it.

ah now, maynooth is great, but mantra is a shocking sh1te hole. i think its hilarious they did that video at the weekend to get a "classier" crowd. worked out well for them, :pac:

also, im pretty certain that place wasnt open in 2008

They charge ridiculous prices in there. None of the students, myself included, were able to afford them.

After a few months of opening people stopped going, and eventually they dropped their prices. Even still they are too high. Around €5.60 for a long-neck Bulmers.

Only option was to sneak in a naggin or a few cans and open them in the toilets.

In 2008 it was called the Leinster Arms or something and you needed less than 3 teeth or an aslan tattoo to get in.

2:15... Is that girl on helium?

yup, but that place bore no resemblance to mantra, and it had a pool table and an awesome carvery dinner, so it still wins.

I go there every couple of weeks and have had some great nights in it.
The smoking area is possibly the best in the country and i find it a lot
friendlier and easier to approach people than in Dublin.

Crowds in Dublin tend to be ****. Still though, London is the ****ing worst!
