    Never been there but I hear nothing but good things:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,060 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Don't know, never been. Have read (on here) that it's a pretty crap place?

    last time i was there i saw someone at least in their 40's hitting on a girl who was probably just passed the age of consent.

    it's a ****ing dive of a place. it's awful, they allow the culchies to have drinks on the dance floor so when they finish they do the drop and kick glass routine, which means you end up standing on shards of glass, not something you'd want if you're a girl in strapped shoes.

    and it's not even that cheap, where the feck are all the culchies getting the money from?

    Yes, its a school disco for 20 & 30 somethings.

    You have to be able to score somewhere with ease.

    Anyone else been to Hayes Hotel in thurles tipperary? Its identical to Coppers

    I fear there are nightclubs like this across the country.

    F*cking dumps the lot of them

    Moved from AH.

    Feel free to send it back if you don't want it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 505 ✭✭✭briantwin


    Its a breeding ground for culchies.

    Garda mating with nurse = Gremlins the newer batch!!

    This...

    Was there about a year ago. The bar service is a joke. ****ing Auld ones plastered in make up and tan everywhere, and all the entrance fee brought was a measly stamp upon the hand:D
    Seriously though, the place could be a bit better if the bar staff actually performed their jobs to full capacity. Good service == teh win! in most places.

    Meh, it's pretty messy alrite but sometimes a messy night is good for you.

    The complete lack of posers and other assorted gob****es you get in various other nightclubs can only be a good thing.

    Back in the '90s people seriously thought places like CFJ would close down because of the dance clubbing scene :p

    I love coppers! Haven't been there in a while because after a while the bouncers started asking me "Ah, where were you last week? I didn't see you here" then i knew it was bad :D

    I enjoy watching preppy boys and girls think they are so posh! With the A&F and designer bags


    ps: i sometimes dress like that :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 159 ✭✭Cheerilee


    Its not called Coppers for nothing.. I used to live with girls who went out with guards and it was the ONLY place they used to frequent...
    I haven't been there in years but each time I was forced to go I swore it would be the last:)

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985


    coppers is no longer as much a culchie spot as it was.the dubs have invaded lately especially the D4s.was there few weeks back and it was full of stuckup knobs!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,398 ✭✭✭MIN2511


    There are hardly any culchies left there :D

    The D4 people have invaded the place with their A&F t-shirts... Everyone talking about Bank of Mum & Dad :D

    Yes, i feel that modern irish culture is a heaving mass of hot sweating, groping flesh fondeling itself whilst downing wkd and jagerbombs.

    No all teachers:D
    would only go out with guards and now all three of them are married to guards:confused: they met them all in Coppers...

    The company that imported us to Ireland put us in the Jackson Court Hotel (near their offices), and thus CFJ's was my first introduction to Ireland.

    I'm still carrying the scars, and a slight nervous tick whenever it's mentioned :pac:
