    Cloughessys

    I had some beautiful creamy pints in Foleys (old small claws) on Sunday
    Nancys (inside) does a tasty pint
    The Munster Fair Tavern does an excellent pint as does Rashers

    Dont want to sound controversial but the influx of foreign workers in bars has really led to the decline of the standard of Guinness
    Luckily enough the places i named have (mostly) Irish staff

    you will get 20 replies naming 15 different pubs.

    see "what's the best takaway"...

    whats wrong with 20 replys naming diffrent pubs what i like about the dog is It has a lovely atmosphere, a nice alternative crowd, and lovely pints. It also has music and other things going on sometimes which are pretty interesting too. I don't get a chance to go there very often, but I try to make it every once in a while. I reckon the guiness is the best around ..

    thats just me ..

    WHAT ABOUT DISCOS. where is the best and worst pint and people ?

    PA.

    the OP is asking for the BEST pint and not A pint in LIM.

    it's the kind of question. limerick has (allegedly) threehundredsixtysomething pubs. there will never be an agreement on a BEST pint as there are to many choices. 20 people will name 20 different pubs. that's a great help to the OP's question, isn't it?! he has the choice now between 20 BEST pints out of 20 pubs.

    the same happened in the "best takaway in limerick" thread. everybody named a different chipper as the best one. at the end almost every single chipper in this benighted was mentioned. and what is the best chipper now? no agreement.

    this kind of very subjective questions is just ridiculous because you wont get an ultimate answer...

    I've noticed that the Still House on Thomas St does lager with very creamy heads, always a welcome thing! Tom Collins bar on Cecil St also serves great pints with a good atmosphere, you meet the most interesting of people in there too :)

    country club is still open but its soon to be knocked and apartments, shops etc. to be built on the site, i think they're going to re-open a small bar when its done. davin still there but not for long, it's very soon to be knocked and a lidl built in its place. I still cant understand lidl paying that much for a site, surely they could have got a site on the northside alot cheaper???


    sorry for wandering off topic there a little!!
