Don't think I ever drank in Quinns. Was in the Big Tree on numerous occasions and didn't mind it to be honest - was always a good place to pick up a last minute ticket and getit at face value. McGraths on the other hand - went in there for a pint years ago and came out with a wife so maybe better avoided.

Ha! Brilliant!

Haven't set foot in Quinns since 1996, it was filthy then and it's filthy now. A fine place for the GAA to buy themselves I reckon.....

Never understood its popularity either.Same with the Big Tree.They are the last 2 watering holes id attend.Luckily.as a Dub,i have my own favourites,just off the beaten track where,even on a busy match day,there is room for comfort,and still only 10 minutes walk away from the theatre of dreams(or screams for all other Leinster counties).Culchies are so predictable its laughable.Crammed in like battery hens to the aforementioned kips.Then Flannerys and Copper Face Jacks later that night.(am i the only Irish man thats never been to Coppers?)Maybe McGowans Phibsboro if they wanna go mad.Spice it up a bit lads and lassies.Variety is the spice of life.

Clearys is not west Brit.It is one of the most Republican bars in the city.

clearys is boring and fairly west-brit

I take it your taking the piss, one of the nicest pints of guinness in Dublin and decent heads there too. You must be thinking of the one on O Connell st :)

I used to love the Hideoout as well. Went on an awful session with some Down supporters there one of the days in 2010.

they wouldnt serve me one st. Patricks day because i asked for a "pionta Guinness, le do theil" (it being seachtain na gaeilge and that...)
another time, while i weas having a pint therre waiting for someone, these two bould codgers nearly bored me to death with their stories from WW2, when i asked them who they fought for, they said. "for Ireland"! Thick, or deluded, i never went back anyway, boring and depressing, especially vconsidering the amount of grand pubs around there. (not Quinns!)

Ask for a pint in English next time flack.The barman prob thought you were taking the urine,Paddys Day or not.I once saw 4 Kilkenny lads being shown the door for messing with an old picture of Dev and Mick Collins.Eejitry and horse play will not be tolerated in this fine establishment.

Daytona,Kielys is prob Dublins most well known Rugby pub.Donnybrook is Rugby heartland.And even with the bus,youl have to leave about 1 hour before throw in on match day to get to Croke Park on good time.Seems inconvenient for a pre game pint.
