[quote=âMacâ]Bumping this thread ahead of âArthurs Dayâ next Thursday. Events in nearly every pub in Dublin to mark the occasion.
Personally, the nicest Guinness I ever had was in the Storehouse, closely followed by the Brazen Head. Mulligans is ok. None of the pubs at home would be that memorable for Guinness - good efforts but not in the same class as the first 2 mentioned.[/quote]
Someone told me Guinness will be 2.50 on the day, presume thatâs bollocks?
Interesting to see the Harbourmaster and its shit staff have long been copped by this thread a long time ago. Well done Farmer. :rolleyes:

Left the guts of a few of grand in the place I would say over three years in my heavy drinking days of my previous employment. I will say though that their Guinness is actually decent enough.
J McNeills on Capel Street is a fantastic pint btw. Only opened in November of last year hense why I donât have it in my list of favourites. I recommend tucking into an Irish stew in there with a pint, money well spent and your stomach will thank you for it!
The nicest 8 pints of Guiness I ever had were in The Gravediggers one winters Sunday after I had gone out to Fairyhouse but the racing was called off due to high winds. Had hear about this place so did a bit of investigating, savage spot.
I see the Old quarter pub in Limerick is now advertising pints of Guinness for 3.30 all day every day.
[quote=âLockeâ]Dublin - Mulligans, hands down. Make it my business if in the Big Smoke to go there for a few.
Kilkenny - Stepps Bar, Callan. Well I donât get out much at home but had a few there last week and they were sweet (before the wagon came into town) Cork - Shortts, Castlemartyr. Great pints of whatever, full stop, but the Guinness is smooth as silk
Cork - The Maple Inn, Midleton. Always a great pint, especially on a Sunday night with NFL on in the corner.[/quote]
Jesus Locke we might have accidently seen/bumped into each other there.
Used to be a lot better pint-wise when it was a proper GAA pub called Barryâs.
It looks like itâs that old to be honest. None of this superpub shite with the owner of this new establishment, turf fire and wooden benches for seats is the name of the game here. A pub is for drinking in, not for getting comfortable in.
Teach Ol in Tulla. Top class. 9.5/10. Was in slatterys in Rathmines on sat nite. Good pint. 8/10. Roddy Bolands. Only ok. 5/10. Cassidys near coppers. Goodish pint 7/10
mcdaids off grafton does a lovely pint of guinness i thinkâŚwhats the real old pub across from Isaacs om macurtain street kev?..dan lowrys?..enjoyed a nice pint of muphys in there on many an occasion while in cork townâŚcashmans was another good pintâŚ
I love Guinness but I will not be partaking in Arthurâs Day first because it is a marketing gimic and more important I will be abstaining from alcohol after this weekend for about a month to coincide with the astro season starting up again.
whats the story with the pub on the dock road in limerick? used to be called ciaran careys, then clem smithsâŚdonât know what its called nowâŚremmeber being in it years ago at about half 11 one sunday morning and it was hopping with the tunes pumpingâŚpikeys everywhere mindâŚgreat feed in the pub beside itâŚcanât remember name of itâŚ
