I adore the place, food, beer and staff are excellent. They have 5 hand pumps ! Bit of a shitty area and not really close to anything but it's well worth visiting and frequenting.
My only concern is that it never seems to be busy <!-- s:-( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="

Also a GREAT venue for a pre Croke Park game/concert
