    What's that place like? Any time I walk past it I think it looks dodgy as fook for some reason but am usually half-tempted to stop in for a pint. I haven't acted on that temptation yet though.

    The other place in the area that I have always wanted to pop into, but that looks like it might be very dodgy is the Glimmerman. What's that spot like? I've often seen tracksuited skangers with neck tattoos and pit bulls outside it, but I have no idea if they drink in there or just hang around on the street.

    I've watched a few rugby a football matches in the Glimmerman when all the other pubs are full and it was actually grand. Mix of characters - tourists and locals (of all classes) and ended up watching the people as much as the match.

    Never felt uncomfortable and we were just two girls, few friendly old lads at the bar. And they have Beamish.

    Pop in for a pint and let me know what you think. :D

    I do enjoy a pint of Beamish in the depths of winter alright, although Walsh's down the road has it too and that's a great little pub.

    It's hard to beat Walshes.

    The new place where Soulful was is Oxmantown, which is also down on St. Mary's Abbey/Capel Street-ish. I don't think much of their stuff there so probably won't be paying it a visit, although there's rumours of them doing pizza at night.

    I reckon Love Supreme is still the best in the area for coffee and a sausage roll, but must give Cowtown a run soon.

    I haven't gone back since I was told I couldn't have more milk for my pot of tea...

    The food in there is grand, coffee isn't great and service varies from really nice to pretty abrupt/cold.

    Woof down the road has upped its game quite a bit, and worth a visit too.

    PHX Bistro is nearby and do a great lunch deal. Myself and the the other half went there on a saturday night a few weeks ago, great food and excellent value.

    Yes, Walshes is a great pub. Was there a couple of weeks ago and would have stayed all night.

    Tommy O'Gara's is supposed to be a great pub for the locals.

    Slice is on Manor Place, just a few doors up the street from Cowtown. It seems to be something of a hipster mecca and always has a bunch of them hanging around outside waiting for a table at weekends.

    Take it you mean Love Supreme. If you don't like it, fair enough, but they're just trying to provide good food and coffee in an area asking for good food and drink. Resenting 'the hipsters' is a pretty cliche. If it's not your scene, you don't have to worry.
