    What kind of place are you looking for Emma? Dirty auld man's boozer (my particular favourite - not that I'm dirty or old :pac:), flashy Dawson Street pints are 7 euro boozer, family boozer, boozer with good food etc.?

    edit: ok here are a few for starters:

    The Market Bar http://www.marketbar.ie/ is fully accessible and has a large wheelchair toilet. Serves decent tapas too

    Cafe en seine on Dawson Street is also accessible and has a disabled jacks. Expensive and full of posers though

    The Church on Mary Street is also fully accessible. They serve food and have a beer garden. It's a big pub but there hasn't been a huge amount of atmosphere any time I've been in there.

    Rody Bolands in Rathmines. Great country persons pub. Many a quiet Sunday aftenoon pint has turned into a brilliant session and the obligatory horrendous Monday morning hangover. Spit and sawdust type place (but in a good way). Have a disabled toilet which is large but smells horrendous due to the mops and buckets

    Maybe Zanzibar on the Ormond quay. Haven't been in there in years but it's massive, the crowd is young, it serves late and has a DJ who plays dancey music. Not sure if they have a wheelchair toilet but I'd be surprised if they didn't to be honest. Maybe give them a call to confirm

    McTurcaills on Tara Street has a wheelchair toilet in the front bar and most (possibly all - hazy memory ;)) of the pub is accessible. They play music too as far as i can remember.

    Anyway, here's a link to a few more. Maybe a pub crawl could be in order...:D http://www.dublinpubscene.com/thepubs/wheelchairaccess.html

    I think The Waterloo on Baggot Street is wheelchair friendly.
