Some conversation around the sign on twitter would suggest that this is the same family whose name appears above Bowe's of Fleet Street. Thankfully the ghost sign has been left uncovered long enough that I could get up to South William Street to grab a snap on the phone. And thankful, too, to this incredibly windswept and interesting person (as Billy Connolly would put it) for passing through the frame as I was there. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #architecture #barsofinstagram #cityphotography #discoverdublin #discoverireland #dublin #dublinbypub #dublincity #dublinpub #dublinpubs #dublinstreets #guardiancities #guinness #igersdublin #ihavethisthingwithpints #ireland #irish #irishpub #irishwhiskey #lonelyplanet #lovedublin #loveireland #publichouse #publife #pubsofinstagram #streetscape #travel #visitdublin #visitireland

Kavanagh's: New St. Verbose and all, as we’d li Kavanagh's: New St. Verbose and all, as we’d like to be about every Dublin pub that we visit – sometimes there’s just no escaping the plain and the ordinary from our experiences. And not that we'd like to label Kavanagh’s of New Street as such, it just happens to be such a pub relative to all of our experiences there. Each time we’ve darkened the door of this particular hostelry, we must admit that it on the occasion of having left the big and the green, and admittedly enjoyable, bombast of its nearest competitor across the way, and we’d be naïve to think that this didn’t feed into our view of the place. So do take that as a disclaimer, if needed. A medium-sized and well-maintained pub, it’s a rather bright space during the day and, as Pintman №2 would put it - a grand place to watch a match, though it must be disclosed that this is an attribute he affords to any space that has a visible television and a sky tv subscription. A large bar sits to the left of the space as you walk in, and a stonework arch catches the eye at the back of the room. Leading out to the beer garden and the toilets – it was in the passageway beyond this arch that we found what we considered to be one of the more conversation-worthy features of the pub – a note that read “no drink to be brought out back after 7 pm, as neighbours are complaining”. Something we all agreed definitely threw a sort of passive-aggressive shade toward dwellers domiciled in the pub’s proximity. (1/2… Contd. In Comments)
John Fallon's Capstan Bar of The Coombe: one of th John Fallon's Capstan Bar of The Coombe: one of the great historic Dublin pubs which sits very close to the infamous four 'corners of hell'. It was owned by famed pugilist and first Irish-born heavyweight champion: Dan Donnelly in the 19th century - whose prized powerful arm was posthumously removed and displayed in a pub for decades, itself. I find I'm never really happy with any of the pictures I take of this pub, and am still trying to capture something I'm fully happy with. DubCityCouncil's maximum signage density policy is no help to the cause anyway, with these FOUR street signs obscuring the beautiful vista. Surely the one or two would do the trick instead. We originally posted about the pub all of about five years ago when an unwaveringly narky barman reigned supreme over the place. We never thought we'd be saying this, but with him having retired, the place is much the worse for it. You really never know what you have until it's gone. Nonetheless it's still one of the finest pubs in the land and a purveyor of what we'd consider to be one of the top ten pints in the city. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #architecture #barsofinstagram #cityphotography #discoverdublin #discoverireland #dublin #dublinbypub #dublincity #dublinpub #dublinpubs #dublinstreets #guardiancities #guinness #igersdublin #ihavethisthingwithpints #ireland #irish #irishpub #irishwhiskey #lonelyplanet #lovedublin #loveireland #publichouse #publife #pubsofinstagram  #streetscape #travel #visitdublin #visitireland
"Yous'll never leave if you start there" . So was "Yous'll never leave if you start there" . So was the warning of a Stoneybatter-native colleague when I'd told her of our intention to begin a pubcrawl in The Glimmerman after work. We did not heed this warning and proceeded to spend the entire evening in The Glimmerman, just as she had predicted. We do generally prefer our pictures to depict pubs when they're open but it's a very rare occurrence to snap this place when there's no cars outside, so you might excuse the break in convention this time around. The Glimmerman is a fantastic pub, literally packed to the rafters with bizzare and interesting furnishings and would be a strong contender for our favourite Stoneybatter boozer. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #architecture #barsofinstagram #cityphotography #discoverdublin #discoverireland #dublin #dublinbypub #dublincity #dublinpub #dublinpubs #dublinstreets #guardiancities #guinness #igersdublin #ihavethisthingwithpints #ireland #irish #irishpub #irishwhiskey #lonelyplanet #lovedublin #loveireland #publichouse #publife #pubsofinstagram  #streetscape #travel #visitdublin #visitireland
