    go away outta that. You're buying into the shallow commercial superpub crap. Super expensive, super overcrowded, super no fcuking money by the time you get home.

    Hartigans on Leeson Street for best local.
    McSorley's in Ranelagh is nice.
    Thing Mote & O'Neill's, Suffolk Street.
    The Hairy Lemon, Stephen Street.
    Rody Bolands can be a good laugh too.

    Best: 51 Haddington Road (Paddy Flaherty's) - excellent pint, excellent service and a relief from the poncey pubs in the rest of the Baggot Street area.

    Others...

    City Centre: Thing Moate; Hairy Lemon; Sheehans (just off Grafton Street by Dunnes); The Neptune (Abbey Street - great jukebox); Messr Maguire is okay as well.

    Southside: Rody Bollands; Portobello (pub not club)

    Northside: Fagans (even on a non match day)

    Totally agree, infact one that should be on my list is the only decent pub in temple bar - The Palace Bar (not to be confused with the youngsters nightclub on Camden Street)

    The Dawsons lounge is pretty good as well, especially when they have the 6 piece jazz band there.
    It's only just begun...............

    In the Park or the south circular road?

    It's the cheap booze is the attraction there

    well if you enjoy drinking the usuall cr*p ,the the Porter house is not for you.
    thats for sure.
    however, if you have adapteda taste for fine beers. i.e. belgian german and chzec then its the place to be really.
    no artificially mucked about beer here mate!
    no budweiser pi*s and really nice home brews.
    im sure those other pubs are all nice and well nice! but i betcha they all serve the cream of the cr*p!

    Haha

    Theres no best pub anyway as depends on what you looking for.

    The Barge is good in the summer when can drink outside next to the canal after work. Fagans is good for food but IMo thats about it. Not been to the Porter House for while but good spot when want to try some beers different from the normal generic bunch. Stags Head (best thing is no tv or pipped music) & Mulligans in the city good for the relaxed pint.
