Best pint in Camden St/Wexford St area? (1 Viewer)

[Hector Grey]

That's Starbucks behaviour.

I've used a laptop in Grogan's before (it was unavoidable, really urgent).

i'm just picturing you taking a slash on your laptop now....

What's that oul' pub on the left as you're walking up to Portobello Bridge/Pub? On eh, Richmond St., is it? Good?

 

[snakybus]

Corrigan's?

Used to be, til they put loads of tellies in.

I like that it has red neon lights -- BAR -- up high on the building. It is like a beacon out my window. Come drink.

O’Connell’s?

They do a decent sandwich but I’ve never drank there. It’s always on those “Doors of Dublin” postcards. It’s a local pub for local people, always the same bunch of lads hanging round outside it.

 

[snakybus]

Oh yeah, O'Connell's.

Where's Corrigan's so?

In between Ranelagh Road and Lower Rathmines Road.

Corrigans is nice too. The barmen wear dickie bowes.
It's on Mountpleasant avenue, near Richmond Hill and the archway onto Mountpleasant Square there.

 

[snakybus]

They have excellent Guinness here. Lovely pub, everyone's friendly (except one of the barmen who can be a bit narky). You used to be able to smoke inside at last orders after the smoking ban, but I think they got into trouble.

What about using a laptop in a pub?

Obviously, do whatever the fuck you want, no? (As long as you don't smell or bump into people I guess.)

I've never used a laptop in a pub. Seems like the perfect place to break one though.

That's it, O'Connell's. Must give it a go when the weather gets shite again. Never been in, but I'd always imagined the Guinness being great. Haven't been to Corrigan's for years, found it kinds soulless. And that's the way the Hill's gone since it got in with this Celtic Tiger crowd.

So has this thread just turned into a 'great pubs round Dublin'?

In that case, Neary's is great, the kind of place where you don't pay for anything till your on your way out. I always get good pints in Kennedy's and if youre out Rathfarnham way The Yellow House is an institution.

Southside city centre it seems.

People just like to talk about pubs.
Whaddyagonnado?

it was only after we left he admitted it was actually a RAT.


(yes, he told the bar staff)

Nuffin, I love to talk about pubs. One of the best days ever was when we had a pub crawl of all the local pubs and rated them on atmosphere, the pints, price, talent, toilets and smoking area. You might think an elaborate way to decide upon your new local but it was a great day out for all involved.

Kennedy's on Westland Row

Its the kinda place I wouldn't be surprised to find a rat, I mean they sell buckfast.

Ah no, most of us have stuck to the Terms of Reference. But we might reconfigure the strategy matrix going forward by blueskying some new paradigms.
