They like the craic but not down the trad route, they are Dublin girls, like good food and drink and a fun night out. They are aged 22-24, so think they know their way around, hmm.

Gallagher's sounds like a place the locals eat and drink in a lot, is it city center? Is there a little fancy cocktail place hidden around, they seem to find one every where they go, Clancy's has a few pic's alright, or would that be to a big hotel.

They were looking at a Mexican place for food, Tequila jacks, it looks a bit of the beaten track to me. Is it any good or another Bar?Restaurant like it maybe. Thanks for all the good advise by the way.

The Clayton's Globe restaurant is next door. Across the river on Victoria Road you have Goldbergs, and unfortunately the Sextant and the Idle Hour are closed.

Have booked three nights away at the start of September and our package doesn't include breakfast (€17.99 extra per day). Actually, another thing, is the hotel itself walkable to the city centre? Furthermore, hoping that the review in three weeks is good news for the pubs, however unlikely (our break falls into the theoretical easing of phase 4), I assume there would be a few alright spots for a pint in the vicinity? I gather from google maps that it seems to be a student-y area.
