Fibbers is, has been and ALWAYS will be a sh!thole full of people who can't get in to nice pubs. Let's not get into a debate here folks. That's it!!

Only been in it once. Music wasn't overly bad, but the place stinks

Sleepy

Don't mind the place at all, though I do have a quirky love of dingy rock bars.

I'll take it any night over Q-bar or the like though!

Where is it?

It's one of the only places you can go where you don't get thrown out for listening to rock music, and where you can thrash about to your hearts content without condescending people desperatly trying to look cool looking down their noses at you. Haven't been there in years.

I used to go when I was about 15, they would ley anyone in.

The music is great, but the attitude of some of the goths can be annoying.

Not my kind of place whatsoever.

jonnybadd

Its one hell of a dive, but I've had plenty of good thursday nights in there.

Töpher

Any time I've been there it's been full of twats and playing boring nu-metal. Suffice to say I think it sucks!

It has

It was aquarium for awhile, then bacchaus then back to fibbers with new management. Instead of the old main saturday night DJ, who seemed to just plugged a cd player and pretend to do stuff for the night while never EVER bothering to change around the order of the songs there is now a DJ on saturday night that delights in playing Hammer time, Scat Man john and several other choice turds. Ah yes, the first time it was played it was a jolly laugh now it just getting annoying. Fibbers is a rock/metal bar, I thought the bottles of buckfast for sale behind the bar would have given the DJ a clue.

It's a ****ehole anyway, the smell from the bathrooms has gotten even worse scince the closing of the beer garden.

They do have live bands fridays/saturdays which is a plus.

projectmayhem

on the topic of playing scat-man joe... do the management not realise that while there are a bunch of wasted idiots dancing on the floor, the majority of "patrons" are standing around putting their faces in their collective hands?

I've heard something akin to the chart hits of 1990 being played in there before. Fresh Price of Bel Air, indeed :eek::(

I heard Mary Black in there one evening...although there was no DJ, so we can't blame anyone...

Yeah, Fibbers is a dive, there's no denying that, but there are a number of advantages to the place.

1 - There's a "dance floor", the only metal dance floor in Dublin, to the best of my knowledge.

2 - The vast majority of the time, the DJ sticks to Rock, Metal and Grunge.

3 - There are places to go within Fibbers. Upstairs, downstairs, the stage, the bar, the toilets, the dance floor, around the corner, the pool tables. You can "disappear" for a while and nobody wonders where you are...

4 - The layout is great. It's circular so no matter which way you walk, you'll always end up back where you started eventually. There's two ways to get to everywhere, this is useful. You're not all standing around, looking at each other, like in Brux.

But it does smell, the toilets are horrible and it's not very well located.

Dathai

Its alright actually, nice atmosphere, bouncers are getting strict on ID which is nice.The smell is just horrid though.

I used to go there a lot around 94-96. The fact that it had a beer garden was great - you could bring your own drink (and most people did). There used to be a fountain out there too, which every weekend someone would invariably fill with Fairy liquid.
There were also £2 snake-bites, lots of vomit, headbanging, smelly toilets and fights with bouncers. But those days were a lot of fun too :v:

Stinks, but you are guaranteed a good time.

That fountain provided hours of fun... Even thinking about a snake bite made me wretch. Jesus, those were the days alright.

until me, my mates and my girlfriend get asked for ID. we're clearly not underage, and if they don't recognise us at this stage then these bouncers really do have a memory like a goldfish

funny moment when we walked in, got asked for ID (on a wednesday). so we turned to each other and in unison said "bruxelles?" and turned on our heels.
