Anyone map a route out this year?

Im thinking maybe try an East-West Route this time. Maybe start in Graces and work your way along, ending around the left bank?

I don't drink, but East to West would be a good idea.

Maguires, Fiddlers, Castle, Seans, the Palace and the Snug.

Gerthys, Coppers, Ricks, Durty Harrys, Nuts Corner and the Prince.

Why is your list West to East (apart from the last)? Maybe you should drink.

I agree that a couple of pubs on my list may be frequented by some colourful and earthy clients but rough ???

Certainly not.

Check out Flannery's, (beside Dunne's in Irishtown).
Mad Anne will look after you!

Flannerys is the best spot in town.
Its important that the last 4-5 pubs are good ones, or else the party will die when you start becoming completely fooked.

I would work East to west as suggested.
Shack
Richard Graces
Flannerys
Nuts
Piano Bar
Prince
Harveys
Gerties
Castle Inn
Seans
Snug
Larrys
