They are still living off their Luke Kelly buzz, as if they give a fcuk about traditional music these days. You play music in there you donât even get a fcuking pint off the bossman never mind getting paid. If you want trad these days there are only a few places left, Hughesâ at the Four Courts or the Cobblestone would be the ones that come to mind, OâDonoghues is for tourists and tossers. Itâs a total fraud.[/QUOTE]
Plenty of gee in there all the same. It was alright for 3 or 4 pints on the way into town after work.
[quote=âfarmerinthecityâ]OâDonoghue is one of the most overrated pubs in Dublin.
Gobshites of barmen/women mainly, beer woeful from the back bar and only alright from the front one, only comfortable place is standing out in a smoke filled yard and has a general feel of being up its own arse.[/QUOTE]
Couldnt agree farmer, great great smoking area, superb for us nicotine partakers.

Eh do you not find everyone appears to stare at you?
Williams spends alot of time in Ireland, I presumed he was heading home after he resigned from Ulster.

Blue,Dawson st sounds like a bend you over and screw you for eating in the company of D4 heads like the ones you mention above,ya must have deep pockets W.B.
Its not too bad to be honest and the food is decent enough.
Myself and the missus hadnât been out for any length of time since the arrival of the baby, we were meeting friends of ours who booked it so I didnât give a shit where we were as long as we were out for the evening
The Celeb spots were a bonus
