Your Favourite Bars

A Disgrace

The Lord Edward (upstairs and downstairs) - a very atmospheric pub that probably hasn't changed in well over 100 years, and hopefully never will

Lannigans on Eden Quay. Love the year-round halloween decorations,really cool music and the staff are sound.

And if you hang around late enough you'll catch the cast from whatever show is on the Abbey..

Flannerys, what a spot ☺

Oscars - Smithfield.

Against the Grain and the like are horrible places to have a drink. Really, cold environment in them.

I suppose its ATG I'm talking about really...porterhouse has it's fair share of women but ATG seems to only ever be full of male crusties.

It's bcause ATG smells funny/bad... Apparently the crush all the glass bottles in the basement so the smell drifts up. Anyway, that's why I refuse to drink there (tho I had thought it was the toilets or drains)

Oh and my favourite pub is without a doubt The Headline.

ATG kicked us out for singing the Auld Triangle at ~1am one night during the summer there. I've swerved GBB pubs as much as possible as a result. No warning; just straight out the door for the heinous crime of singing an Irish ballad in an Irish pub. :rolleyes:

I quite enjoy The Living Room on Cathal Brugha St, good auld selection of beers and I like whatever playlist they do have on during the week, on a Friday/Saturday I think they get some DJ in and it's not as enjoyable, can't have a chat! Great for sports as well, screens everywhere.

Why should anyone have to listen to you singing when they're trying to enjoy a drink and a chat with their friends?

Are you sure it wasn't just closing time anyway? I didn't think ATG had a late licence.

top few as there's too many to pick from :P

Brew dock
Sober Lane
Cassidys
Sweenys

sticksman

Cassidy's or Ryan's of Camden Street for me.

Yeah usually closes up about 1

The Brian Boru, Fagan's, the Gravediggers, the long hall, Kehoe's and the Palace. Don't need anywhere else at this stage in my life.

Have to agree. It's a pity as the beer choice is interesting.

But the choice of bar is such a personal thing. The likes of Sweeny's for example - you can't hear yourself think in there, it's so god awfully loud. Anywhere with background music I give a miss.

Probably an age thing. Neary's/Long Hall/Stag's Head/Library Bar/Palace/Kehoe's are my kind of aul lad joints.

Nice enough spot too. Pizza is good and they gave a away a ton of free drinks when it opened! I like all the games they have going like the table tennis makes for more of a community feel than most pubs as people aren't only there when they are drinking!

The Black Sheep and especially ATG are a good mix for me: craft pubs but nice too.

For various reasons, I'm very fond of the following. If some of them had a better selection of beer, they'd be even more perfect:

Dice Bar
Ryans (Queen Street)
Bowes
Grogans
Stags Head
O'Briens (Leeson street)
Long Hall
Lord Edward (Upstairs)

Toast Pub Rathmines Road. The fellas behind the counter are friendly anyway. Nice seating spots for everyone whether extrovert or introvert.
