Brogan’s: Dame St.

Brogan’s: Dame St.

Previously here, we’ve spoken of pubs which had been fitted out in a manner to make them appear old and worn. The manner we’ve spoke of these places has to memory not been of the most complimentary nature and the word gimmicky may have been thrown about.
J.& M. Cleary’s – Amiens St.

J.& M. Cleary’s – Amiens St.

Much had been said to me over the years about Cleary’s, it being an old haunt of Michael Collins. More recently to this visit someone told me of their sojourn here and how it contained a level of violence that the big fella himself would be familiar with.
The Snug: Stephen Street

The Snug: Stephen Street

Most of the time we aim for tactfulness here on DublinByPub, but other times you need to just tell things as they are. The Snug on Stephen Street is a mad kip!
The Long Hall: George’s Street

The Long Hall: George’s Street

Lannigan’s: Eden Quay

Molloy’s: Talbot St.

Molloy’s: Talbot St.

Recently we heard that Molloy's, which we thought had closed down, had reopened following a renovation. We were passing by not so long ago and figured we'd drop in to check out the handy work.
