Rough pubs of Cork

Ubbquittious

Just seen the Dublin thread and got me thinking Cork must also have a few rough pubs of its own. A lad told me one time 'The constellation' across from the Heineken brewery is very rough but I was in there several times and didn't see anything unusual.

I used to go to the Grafton frequently enough 4 or 5 years ago..... There was a definite absence of folk looking for craft beer etc but I'd not consider it rough. The catwalk for the over 25s sort of place.

I don’t think craft beer was that popular 4/5 years ago, it’s huge now.

I think the grafton was pretty rough, I was in there one jazz weekend cause couldn’t get in anywhere else and there was a huge fight in the smoking area.

Ha, the Catwalk. Bunch of 17-20 year olds getting drunk and dancing.

About as truly rough as quilted toilet paper

the beer revolu

Anyone remember The Billie Jean?
It was on the corner of Castle Street and Cornmarket Street, where a jewelers is now, across from The Roundy.

I think that's the first pub I ever drank in (way before I should have) and my fuzzy memory of it is that it was dog rough. Mates claimed to have witnessed a stabbing/slashing there one night - this may have been exaggerated or made up but I do know we never went again after that.

Anyone buying off dealers are as bad as the dealers IMO.

What rough pub are we missing tonight, comrades?

It's not very rough really, but I'd love to get a bollocking for something innocuous in the Hi B.

I was never in Nana's on Douglas Street in most of its iterations, but it always looks like the patrons wouldn't be bothered with buying a drink.

I'd murder a pint in any of the pubs around it. Miss the Crúiscín as well for a bit of wreckless moshing, and Loafers to an extent.

I don’t think Nana's is rough, was in there a few times last year , it’s fine.

Paddy the farmers is a nicer pub.

I’m not on about the Crinnion’s. I don’t know any of them directly or otherwise. If you are alleging illegal activity on behalf of Mr Delaney’s relatives you had best contact the boys in blue with your concerns.

Obvious in your opinion perhaps. Opinions are personal.

Like I said, I didn't witness it. Did you?

I sure you have as much proof that the tape didn't dissappear as I have that it did.

It's not really relevant to me whether the unfortunate person was beaten to death inside or outside. A person was beaten to death.

Are you defending those who did this?

The Manhattan pub where one of the sons killed a man used to be rough, mostly because of people like them. It's closed a decade now I reckon. Looks like it would have been a nice pub if it wasn't ruined by thugs.

The other son was in the year behind me in school. Got done for dealing heroin a few years back and then stabbed someone in the back during a burglary in Clashduv within months of being released. Dunno what his status is now, but knowing our justice system he walks among us.

I know one of the men that was sentenced for the incident with the cameraman, I have been friends with him and his family many decades through hunting and fishing, he or any of his family never had anything to do with drugs.

I played football with him many years ago. There is no defending what he did but I always found him to be a respectful and decent guy who never caused anyone any hassle, and apart from that incident has lived a very quiet life unconnected to crime.

Far as I remember the lad in Sidetrax started off and a choke hold by security went badly wrong.

Micheal Crinnion was lured out to a phone box across the road from the three ones where he was shot.

He was asked for in a phone call to An Clannad, the phone was very near the door so he was able to take the receiver outside the door to hear and speak better.

There was a phone box across the road at the time and it is suspected the killer made the call from it to lure him outside the door of the packed pub.

Anyone who knows Cork and Sir Henrys knows that small alley between Henrys and the car park. Having a sit down and a smoke before heading in to Henrys and a member of that family walked past with a couple of friends and without breaking a stride punched me full into the jaw and just kept going. I went to the same school as him so knew to sit there and take it. AC.

I'm not defending him, I said ....

You seem to determined to keep a one track mind with regard to this situation.

Personally it doesn't bother me as I think you're just a curtain twitcher type person looking for information.

You've a history of rewriting stuff though so off with you.
