    Its Dalkey and the best ones are the Queens or McDonaghs, they have the nicest beer gardens. The McDonaghs is a bit of a crusty pub but the beer garden is deadly, and the queens is a more posh but really nice.

    the club is real nice, only thing is, there is no beer garden as such, there are a few tables and chairs outside, but they are on the pavement and there is no outdoor heating etc.

    i'd say the queens is the best for one with a beer garden,

    mcdonaghs is a bit of a kip in my opinion.

    IN is crap, but does have a small beer garden at the front.

    The Kings Inn has no beer garden to my knowledge.

    and i can't remember the name of the one up on the left as you go up to the dart station, but i think its a real "old man's" pub. but it does have a few tables and chairs.

    I couldnt remember the name of this either, its Finnegans as far as I remember, its a nice pub, the beer garden (well tables outside) are allways packed

    Ah it is, I'm not knocking it, its the best guiness in Dalkey but it is crusty, it hasnt been renovated as long as I know it and Ive lived in Dalkey for 20 years. Although Im only going to pubs for 10 of those. The beer garden is great, the queens is posh but it serves late (upstairs till 2:30) and its the best place for women. The great thing is they are all used to seeing eachother around so when a new guy comes on the scene they light up.

    Although Dalkey ain't my usual haunt, had a night out with the gurls in Queens, had the best laugh ever. Upstairs is like a cheesy disco with idiots flashing their cash around (they think it's the pink elephant circa. 1986). Bottle of cab sav, Gav?
    Very funny though, kinda like a eurodisco. They even do the conga (without the irony).
