    Just trying to see where there is any Leinster pubs. Being a Tallaght man, Bradys in Terenure would be my closest but its not officially a Rugby pub. On the massive big screen(projector) a couple of weeks ago they had Liverpool, and the small tv in the resteraunt had the Ire rugby match! Go figure... and Terenure being a well known rugby village.

    I should Add nothing North of the Liffey, to far

    Searson's on Baggot St. surely would show all the Leinster games.

    Ah yeah, but would it have a big leinster crowd?

    Looking for a pub that would be full of fans, most pubs would show ye game.

    Kielys Donnybrook will be jammers with Leinster fans. The Woolshed will have both Leinster and Clermont fans

    Sinnotts underneathe Stephens Green Shopping Centre would have a big rugby crowd

    Yeah it's always good fun, they usually do an offer as well free pint of Heineken if Leinster score the first try or win or something.

    That's exactly where I need to be watching leinster games.

    I've been dying to find a leinster specific pub. I guess I'll have to practicing my D4 accent heading to donnybrook

    Kieleys or the Horse Show House would probably be your best bets.

    Have a gander on leinsterfans.com for any more ideas

    The Yacht in Clontarf shows Leinster games, and has a big Leinster crowd when I've been there during games. It's only a 10 minute drive from town too.

    The Orchard in Rathfarnham is closest good rugby pub I know to Tallaght, or the Dropping Well in Rathgar.

    THE main Leinster bars are the Horse Show House in ballsbridge (particularly on match days) and Kielys in Donnybrook is packed for just about any Leinster game home or away - definitely the pub of choice for games - as good an atmosphere as being at the game for big games (like Heineken Cup).

    Other than that, you would mostly just get generic rugby pubs rather than Leinster ones, being a cosmopolitan city that we have, pub owners don't want to alienate any corner of their potential business, but Slatterys on Bath Avenue / Shelbourne road gets a big Leinster crowd in for Heineken Cup games.

    For the best Leinster pubs, you're looking mostly around Dublin 4, in or around the vancinity of the grounds (Donnybrook, RDS and Lansdowne) and you can't go wrong. Most places on Bagott St. too.

    On the North side, the Yacht in Clontarf, the Fairview Inn or Ivy House Drumcondra.

    If you go the extra mile to Kileys you wont regret it though.

    You will regret it. The drink in kielys is muck. Mcsorleys in ranelagh is a far better option in my humble opinion.
