looking for 12 pub ideas starting dawson St. finishing Camden St.

Vickysg24

Hi. So I know there's prob loads of threads about this but I just need a little help piecing together our route. Myself and the girls (roughly ten of us) Are doing 12 pubs this sat and we're starting off in the Dawson lounge and wanting to finish up in flannerys. ... i don't know town all that much coz I'm not from here so I'm just open to suggestions really. Any help is much appreciated. TIA.

Most bars dont allow it anymore. So imagine its a case of just trying to see what bars will serve you. I know every year less and less bars are allowing it in their bars

When is this obnoxious crap going to go out of fashion?

You missed a meeting, OP. It's not cool any more.

I wouldn't say it's obnoxious. Just a few girls wanting to get out for a Christmas drink. How on earth is it classed as obnoxious? !

Well it really isn't about being cool and if we wanna be old fashioned then so be it! but I don't spend all that much time on boards to notice these things unfortunately I just merely wanted an idea of what pubs me and my friends could consider. But thanks for your input!

But it's not a Christmas drink. It is twelve of them. Drinks 1-6 can be grand, but by the time you get to drinks number 8,9,10, people are off their trollies and can get very rowdy, which is why a lot of pubs ban 12 Pubs outings now.

Well your basically tarring everyone with the same brush there. Which to me is obnoxious. We're not all the same and our aim isn't to get out to get trollied. We did the same thing last year and we stuck to glasses and had a ball. I wasn't looking for your input on how obnoxious you might find it. I was merely looking for advice from people that might have knowledge of decent pubs in the area.

Sorry, I didn't mean you personally, I meant you, as in the wider populace, in the more general sense. Pubs are banning them because of the behaviour of people as the 12 pubs tours wind down and people get drunker and drunker. It you and all of your friends are going to behave impeccably, that's great, but its not me you have to convince, its the people on the door on the night. What people are trying to point out to you, is that you may have a problem in that regard, especially in that part of town, as Camden St used to be considered the Golden Mile for 12 pubs tours.

Folks this thread isn't for debating the merits of 12 pubs, if you don't have anything constructive to contribute, don't

Perhaps check the Facebook page for any pub you have put on your itinerary to see if they have a "12 Pubs Welcome\Not Welcome" post.

Also, as a backup if weather is ok, grab a hot cider\mulled wine\punch and a hot dog at the Stephens Green christmas market.

Grafton Lounge not allowing 12 pubs groups this year, according to Publin

Just don't wear the Christmas jumpers and you'll be let in.
