Best City/Town/Village in Ireland for a brilliant night out.

LETHAL LADY

I tripped the light fantastic on a night out in Ennis. Who'd have known Ennis is a hotbed of craic. Is there any similar hotbeds?

Dunmore, Co. Galway.
It's a one stop shop for shecks, mugs and Alcoball.

Magherafelt, Castledawson, maghera, Toome, Bellaghy where??

Dublin. Better bars, restaurants, clubs and live music venues than anywhere else in the country.

Definitely not Galway. Awful fent of smugness off the place. It's the parochial backwater where its occupants (usually blow-ins) think they live in some sort of 1920's Berlin. It's a small city with about 3 good restaurants and 2 good pubs.

I've found Galway hard to beat. It's like Tenerife without the swimming pool and the sun but fock me is there some craic over there.

Dublin. Beggars and junkies everywhere. Costs a fortune. Stinks of piss. Bouncers are pricks. Also, too many Dubs in Dublin.

Ballybunion during the summer holiday season. Mighty craic altogether.

Ok then. Let us imagine that you've packed your bags, joined your mates and have arrived at the arse end of nowhere for a night out. What is your first move?

Since it will be the arse end of no where one cant be fussy, old shielas become an option.

Was gonna say Ennis too. Loads of great pubs/music sessions and it's a pretty little place - lovely cafés for during the day.

Clonakilty is great too IMO.

dr.bollocko

I always thought Ennis was just there to make Limerick look good.

One of the most boring places in Dublin for a night out. The pubs are empty, tonic is closed and will be opened as a weatherspoons in the near future. It would be the last place I'd go out to have a good night these days. Ten years ago it was different.

guinnessdrinker

I have never had a bad night out in Derry yet, great city! Also in fairness I think Dublin city usually offers a good night out too if you know the right pubs to hit.

Menas

Sligo is surprising folks.
