    O'Riarda's?

    - Used that be the original Molly Malones?

    Hopefully it will be better than O'Riarda's/Mollys

    was in there during the day last weekend, its nice and 'quaint' if thats the right word, it has an original snug just as you go in through the front door. apparently it has a big rugby following, some of the munster team were drinking in there after the match. Lorcan Bourke plays for Garryowen so it has a sports focus. in the back of the bar there are 2 leather couches and a big screen tv for when there are matches on.

    seems to be doing well, and I know that they are hoping to start doing soup/sandwiches when they have their kitchen sorted out.

    A scobe or two might pop in so you might want to avoid it.

    i can confirm it is now a 100% scobe free pub! The new management wanted to shed its old rough image and are very particular about who they serve in there. No tracksuit or nike heads allowed! And what a difference it has made to the pub. Very decent place for a pint now, with a soft oldtime atmosphere.

    lovely spot, called in on a thursday evening and the barman went to lengths to make us feel comfortable and welcome, will definitely stick the head in there more often.
