Not sitting around with a f ucking candle on the table discussing wankers beers brewed by two lads in their back garden.

Toners is like a tale of two pubs - old man bar at the front, massive beer garden full of 20-somethings out the backcamroc1 wrote:O' Donohues and Toners ?ZappaMan wrote:I could hit a soft pitching wedge to two better pubs from the front door of D&H.camroc1 wrote:Who votes - Dublin based Journos ?ZappaMan wrote:I like D&H but it isn't within an asses roar of best pub in Ireland.

Both have added huge beer gardens on recently, which attracts a different clientele, although nothing beats afternoon pints in Toners, and I'm old enough to remember being locked-in during Holy Hour !

Did I hear correctly that the O'Connell family bought it back?camroc1 wrote:Ate in The Lucky Duck last night, and enjoyed it.
Also had a few pints in the renovated Ryans of Camden Street. Lots of hipsters.
Ate in the Donnybrook (Madigans that was) after the Leinster SF a couple of weeks ago and it is really a very good local restaurant indeed. Will be using it more regularly on match day next season.
I thought that the Madigan family still owned the pub and Tom O'Connell was just leasing ?CM11 wrote:Did I hear correctly that the O'Connell family bought it back?camroc1 wrote:Ate in The Lucky Duck last night, and enjoyed it.

Ok, I guess my question should have been leased it back but you've answered that question.camroc1 wrote:I thought that the Madigan family still owned the pub and Tom O'Connell was just leasing ?CM11 wrote:Did I hear correctly that the O'Connell family bought it back?camroc1 wrote:Ate in The Lucky Duck last night, and enjoyed it.

In any event Oliver Dunne of Bon Appetit in Malahide and others is running it now.

They're a real problem especially outside the Lidl on Thomas St. It gets worse we you head down to James St where all the homeless hostels arenormilet wrote:Cant happen soon enough.

Walk further down to EttoLenny wrote:Going to kd lang in the NCH tomorrow night. Any suggestions for a pre concert dinner venue would be most welcome. Mrs L has suggested The Unicorn for reasons of nostalgia, so I’d appreciate any thoughts on what it’s like now.
