    The bar in Connolly Station also serves on Goodgod Friday, never asked us for a ticket either. I think the one in Heuston is the same.


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


    Title changed so everyone can add bars nationwide that'll be open Good Friday.
    Hope that's ok OP.

    Ah, of course they can (but only if it was Easter Monday ;))

    That should be personal choice no? Not just an ingrained tradition from a religion half of us couldn't give a **** about.

    Believe it or not most can but would like to make the decision for themselves.

    I can't believe we still live in a situation where we're told what days we can't have a bloody drink.

    Only good thing about Q bar is walking out of the place in the afternoon after leaving a big dirty aul shite for the cleaners, a shite so heavy in weight like a bag of cement being opened it almost splits the back of the toilet in half, its comes out of you like hot acid melting against the white enamel of the bowl, stench hits your nostrils instantly burning the hairs, you lift your ball sack up to look at the mess you've left underneath ye, it lies on the water like an oil spill that has picked up every dead fish and animal in the sea. The first wipe of toilet paper feels like someone swabbed it in aftershave!

    Fakearms123, I think your boards.ie account has been hacked by FlutterinBantam. Change your password as soon as you get the chance and pm the mods and the admins. FlutterinBantam will probably get permabanned for this.

    Believe it or not, I do go many days of the year without drinking in a pub, or at home. However, I do not believe it is just that alcohol cannot be sold on one day of the year based on one religion which I, and many others, are not part of. Seperation of church and state and all that. :rolleyes:

    How the **** can the state tell me what to do, justifying their stance on a religion which I do not recognise as in any way true?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 841 ✭✭✭JBnaglfar

    Exactly, gotta get down on Friday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    I would say even if every pub in town was open I still probably wouldn't drink on Friday......now Saturday, that'll be a very different kettle of fish :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 86 ✭✭Eever


    They can start serving alcohol at midnight so anywhere with a late license will probably open at midnight.

    Are hotels allowed serve alcohol? And if so, does that apply if you're not staying in the hotel? I know a lot of restaurants had the ban lifted from them in the last year or so.

    Always seems to fall on a friday...

    Thats it, what better way to get back at Q bar then to make the toilet cleaners job even worse. Because we all know it's the cleaners who are responsible for the high prices, door policy and any other gripes you have with the place

    Hotels serve residents. Depending on the bar manager you might well get served if you walk in.

    After a hard working week, I usually go to the pub of a Friday with my mates. It's not like I'm drinking every night of the week or anything.

    I don't buy the whole "we're predominantly Catholic" BS either.

    I don't care what religious beliefs people have tbh but it should be up to the publicans and not the nanny state.

    I can never understand why politicians in 1927 kissed the catholic churches arse and banned booze on Good Friday.

    They were the most conservative revolutionaries in history!!
