I consider it a bogger pub in the city so if that is your idea of fun then it is good. Otherwise I woulds say no

i thought derogorty remarks were not allowed as "a bogger" i find ur line offensive

I would agree, a lot of country folk (have to be careful, seems to be a lot of touchy people on this site) drink there. Its not a bad pub, the beer can be a bit dodgy, they have a habit of serving pints using beer already pulled (they just top up beer that has been already pulled or drawn off) so be careful.
I would advise drinking bottles.

I've only ever been there after matches in Croke Park so yes I suppose it is a bit of a bogger pub. But it's a big DIT pub too so there should be lots of students there.

If you don't have any standards or expectations your in for a great night.

Great spot - I been there the past 4 thursdays :cool:

I'm go to MDI college, so it's just across the road for me. Its full of Mater Dei and St. Pats students. Yes, it is full of country folk, but they are great crack, ..................when they want to be

Dublin forum, Dubliners frequently refer to people outside the pale as "boggers", deal with that, you're a guest in the capital, would you prefer the term culchie?

PC, no, then again, i'm sure plenty of people from the bogs outside Dublin call us "Jackeens" or whatever takes their fancy, i'm not offended, and I'm not bitching about it on their forums.

I was only ever in it twice and this happened to me twice! The beer was absolute muck. Shame, cos it's a decent place otherwise.

Oh and Gerry, lighten up

Great place with some great craic.
Can get a bit troublesome sometimes but you're guaranteed some fun.

I went to a pyjama party there a couple of years ago and had a brilliant time! It was a college night out!!

igotone

Lived in Drumcondra a few years ago, was in quinns a few times. Was alright - nothing to write home about.Was manic on any croker match day though - I remember one "Final Day" was like being in a different country. Its a little out of the city center ( and little too close to dorset street for comfort) to head anywhere else, you'd want to be sure you're staying there for the night with a good group of mates

We'd need to know what your opinion of 'good' is! If you are going out for a few rounds of 25 and to throw a few darts, then it might not be a 'good' spot.

Many would consider 'loads of students' to be a negative factor in any good establishment!

I lost my shoe last Sunday after the Dublin match there... Some dude threw my shoe and we couldn't find it

I used to live round the corne and was in there the whole time,it can be great on thursdays and fridays,the place gets jammed and there's always a dj till late.
One word of caution,the beer in the lower lounge(nearest the door) can be dodgy,i dont know if they dont clean t hier lines but it can make you sick.Either buy bottles or order from the lounge at the top.
Do NOT order gin either as they give you a spanish muck called larios that i wouldnt use to clean out a cage.
Fcuck them,in fact,bring your own drink in!:P

They're not too strict if you look old enough, to be on the safe side you could always go in after midnight after you turn 18.

I think last orders is 11.30 on Saturdays (might not have bouncers on the door). They only open late Wed-Fri. You should be ok getting in. Although if you're with people that go regularly you'll be grand.
