    Leaving Monkfish to his devices that sounds like a good night and a good way to actually get to have a laugh with the people at your stag.

    I'd mine in Ennistymon, there's only one street with a whole glut of pubs on it and we visited them all. We were staying in the Falls hotel (2 minute walk away) and we had a scream until someone suggested going to the local nightclub (which is actually in the Falls and was a case study in 6-toed mutantism) and split the posse on us.

    Worth pointing out -the age range at mine would've been the same as that GH is describing and, other than casually viewing the menu, the vast majority of them wouldn't have been looking to score skirt in the club anyway.

    Mercifully anyway there was a residents late bar in the Falls so we all hooked up again later on but the nightclub thing was a blot on the night. It just knocked a couple of hours out of it on us.

    I had mine in Tullamore. Train station is in the middle of the town which suites those travelling from Galway and Dubland. Lots of quality pubs and there one big MoFo of a nightclub for those interested.

    We had a great meal in a restaurant called the PADDYFIELD which inspired my username, well, kind of.

    had our christmas party in carrick on shannon and i have to say was sceptical with the choice but really liked it. some great pubs there and the nightclub was quite good as well. was pleasantly suprised with the standard of women down there as well

    id also recommend limerick as a good drinking city.

    Kilkenny is a great spot for a stag.

    Going to on in Kenmare Saturday week and they hate stags down there. I have a feeling its going to be a disaster.
    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.

    I used to live in Belfast and can't speak highly enough of the nightlife and craic there is to be had around the city

    Also stayed in Derry for a few months working, great place to go out on the rip...its cheap as rice...pound a pint in some places and a lot of quality skank too

    I was at the place in Kiltorcan years ago, it was a very good setup, we came up from Wexford and my main memory of it is that it was in the middle of nowhere, miles up the side of a mountain or something.

    There's a pitch and Putt club on the Cork road - Waterford Crystal P&P club - I'm fairly sure its still up and running. Nice course from what i can remember, been a good few years since i've been down there.

    Have my own Stag in Galway in a couple of months - any good pubs people can recommend. Not too much into niteclubs. What's the evening entertainment like out on the Racecourse?

    Kiltorcan is very good, it is a little out of the way mind. It's on the Kilkenny side of Mullinavat.
    From memory, after you go through Ballyhale heading south, you take the next left immediately after you pass under a railway bridge, and then left again after 500 metres or so. The track is about a kilometer down that road.

    What direction are you coming from?
    If it was from Dublin or the like you could hit the raceway early, and go on to Waterford from there. There's a decent pub in Mullinavat too called The Rising Sun that would make a good staging post.

    Sully's snooker club is in the city and is only brilliant!
    There's a pitch and putt course at the RSC that you get at from the Tramore road side, which I think is pretty good though I never played on it. There's also a few courses out in Tramore.

    Feck it, karting is the best craic on a stag anyway. I'd say if you're all going in separate cars best to meet at the Rising Sun and then head to the track, and on to Waterford after, or if in a minibus go straight to the raceway and stop off in Mullinavat on the way to town.

    There is more craic in the city centre than at the racecourse, after the races anyway. Regardless of weather, stick to the 20 or so pubs in the Quay Street area. They will all be wedged do why not do as the locals do and bring a few cans. Jurys is at the bottom of Quay Street.
