Try Sober Lane, Le Cheile, The Quad or The Slate. Given you're friend's condition would it maybe not be better to avoid the pub? I can understand why she would want a night out but there are alternatives.

This is a weird question alright.. Suas is probably clean enough and if not you can nip down to capt americas or wagamamas, restaurants usually keep em clean..

Why not get in contact with some pubs and express your needs and concern?
But you'd think places like Soho and those new modern pubs would be of a high standard.

few hundred pubs reviewed by a mate of mine that likes his stout cold, in the correctly marked glass, followed by a trip to a spotless toilet. I'd imagine any of the newer pubs would be fairly clean. I know Barry's in Douglas is quite good.

I have a phobia of public toilets, but consider the jax's in tom Barrys to be comparable to my polished bog.

soho's toilets are usually perfect! From working there i can tell yiou for a fact that they are checked every half hour and brought back to the standard of when no one had used them! (note,can lapse when the place is jam packed,like any other bar)

I would recommened you to pick a bar and let them know the story b4 u show up,then they will be sure 2 have the spotless!even tell themwhat time u are heading in at so u dont have to tell them when u get there)

Heh, not being cynical here or anything -- far from -- but genuinely, your friend is in a much safer environment in even the grottiest public house than she would be in any hospital!!!

It is estimated that perhaps as many as 1,500 patients contracted MRSA in R.O.I. hospitals last year! I have yet to hear of any single, solitary person who suffered the MRSA contagion by visiting a pub.

We won't even go into the realm of gastro-enteritis, "winter-vomiting bug", flesh-eating necro virals, etc, etc.

Hmm ............ last May I underwent a serious surgical procedure -- colon cancer; and had half my stomach removed .The operation was a success Deo gracias but I spent a subsequent 8 weeks in intensive care due to "complications". A nice way of saying Infection

Today, I visit pubs every day for a coupla scoops and I never have suffered even a headcold! Moral being that ..............

Nice site, is there an index for all reviewed pubs on the one page? Maybe I'm blind and can't see it . .

Nice site,

Indeed it is!
And yes, I too was thinking that an index would be helpful.

Only criticism I would have is that the fella seems to be very reluctant to make any disparaging comment about any of the pubs he visited.
