    Quite a few good hostelries.

    Souths, Breens, Tom Collins, Fennesseys, Bobby Byrnes, O'Sheas (Ballysimon).

    Nods

    Add the Curragower to that and the list is complete. These are the ones usually thrown around in best pint conversations and from here you can choose your personal favourite.

    Wouldn't be gone on the pint in Souths. The pint in Bobbys seems to be quite cold, but its a really nice pint. All the others I'd have to agree with.

    The Gate by the Abbey Bridge is a very underrated spot, and probably the best pint I've had in town.

    Also I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the few I had in the Ardhu after the Limerick Kerry match, there was a bit of a crowd there too with the soccer on as well, which sometimes isn't helpful, but to be fair there were no complaints from our group - generally spot on.

    Yeah, the Guinness there is surprisingly good.

    depends on what you are drinking.

    I usually drink Paulaner if its available but the Heineken in rashers is just ridiculously good! You actually can't get a better pint! :D

    Now I say this as somebody who has frequented in basically every bar in Limerick. After that it's probably myles breens but still way off rashers!

    If you got a nice pint of heineken they must have served you something else by mistake, heineken is rank.

    It's the best of the "commercial" beers by a mile. I wouldnt drink bud or miller or that ****e.

    I usually drink paulaner or spaten or polish beers but i drink heineken if im out and cant get the other stuff but its savage when you get a good pint

    Myles Breens or Tom Collins's for Guinness. I've found these two to be head and shoulders above anywhere else i've been.

    O'Connells being voted best pint in Limerick last year was laughable:rolleyes:

    I'd be a bit young for Tom Collins' and Myles Breen's, but I had two perfect pints in Mickey Martin's last night. Flawless Guinness.


  • Registered Users Posts: 871 ✭✭✭savagecabbages


    Aren't we all!

    I've not been in Tom Collins's since it was cleaned up, but a pint in Myles Breens is a work of art.

    I'd only rate Mickeys middle of the road, good, but not spectacular! The atmosphere in Mickeys is its primary attraction for me.

    i drink a good bit in town and i would have to say that Myles Breens is the best pint ive had, Tom Collins not far behind. Windmill and Willie Sextons are fair to good but nothing exceptional (although they are my locals).The greenhills main bar also has a great and consistent pint in my opinion, which is a bit unusual for a hotel bar.

    Not unusual really. Most lines are cleaned on a bi-weekly basis and having a consistent staff pulling pints you can't go wrong really.
