    dude i said they were cheap, not that they were good, and chavs are an English subcullture.

    and Karma is soo far up its own arse its unbelievable, only open occasionally, and hastle you endlessly when they are open.

    Cuba is better, or the Warrick if ye don't mind a walk

    Jesus, go to a pub with some character, and atmosphere, that isn't filled with plebs.

    I recommend: Neactains, Sally Longs and The Blue Note.

    Rosín Dubh I can agree with, especially if there's a decent band playing.

    what kind of night are you looking for? Chart music and picking up birds. or good music + good crowds and a laugh?

    I second the Blue Note, such a great pub. The GPO has improved recently, especially the Drum, Cuba is pretty good, but i have not been there in a while.

    Totally. And brown is the new black. Also, leather jackets are the new charisma.

    the vic can be a good laugh on the saturdays when 110th street are playing (seems to be galways new gay club though, which is a bit weird :confused:)
    091 is also decent there

    pub wise; the blue note and the living room would be 2 of my favourites

    Dunno about the status quo, but I've been out on a few Weds nights lately, had a good time on all of them.
    Thursday can be good, but I'm finding it hard enough to find places that I like.

    Was out last monday at the Jinx Lennon gig in Róisíns, really good night.

    wednesdays are 90's nights in boo radleys good old fashioned drunken fun!
    sally longs plays good music on wed too....
    responding to some stuff above.....GPO has improved to bein absolute crap.
    worst club ever been too..... good pubs are sallys,fibbers,red square,roisin dubh,the quays.kings head,the livingroom(for matches)and the cellar are good occasionally.
    mostly its the ppl your with that make it good tbh,all ya really need is that,somethin playing in the background(wed sallys rock/metal oh thats good) and a 3 euro pint.
