Preferably somewhere for the 21-27 age bracket, where you can have abit of craic, not prententious and relatively easy to chat the ladies! lol.

Heard all about the infamous Copperface Jacks! To be honest I'd rather stay away from the culchie holes as I've been in enough of them in my time! lol. Nah, need somewhere were you got a good chance of meeting a future wife! lol. A few mates of mine went down a few weeks ago and ended up heading to 'Howl at the Moon'?....said it was good craic!

Harcourt street and DTwo etc are disco bars, full of people who have dressed up in shirts and skirts dancing to pop music. Good laugh but I would rather a kick in the arse than spend a night in one of these places. If you're into something a little more casual, with less mainstream music, Camden / Wexford street is a great street for pubs in dublin. My favourites along this road are Anseo, Whelans, the Village, Solas.

coppers is owned by dubliners and that is where you will see the dublin football team after a match, more dubliners frequent coppers than they will admit

at the weekends its packed with dubs.midweek is when its full of country people.

for run of the mill discobars/clubs that play music you hear on the radio:

D2
coppers
howl at the moon
redz
club21
boomerangs
fitzsimons
citibar
purty kitchen
club M
rain
tramco
rios
trivia

for clubs/pubs that play good music (in my opinion anyways) some are house, some are indie/rock music.

whelans
village
tripod
pod/crawdaddy
hub
mcgruders
academy
traffic
doyles

places to avoid (my opinion)

vaults
tivoli
gaiety
palace
