In here now. Not a bad selection to be fair. Plenty of english and scottish bottled beers. Leffe, Galway hooker, Hoegarden on tap as well as the usual guinness bulmers smitheicks etc. They need to get some more irish bottle beers in though.

Galway Hooker €5.20 a pint. For Dublin Does Fridays Rody Boland's is doing all craft pints, including Hooker, for €4. Normally they're €4.60 or so. Can't see myself making it down to The Rathmines Inn much.

Was in today the manager -Dave- was talking about rotating beers and getting in guest beers on occasion ,thought the Hooker was a bit steep at 5.20 a pop <!-- s:shock: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_eek.gif" alt=":shock:" title="Shocked" /><!-- s:shock: --> as was the bottle of Palm at 5.50 <!-- s:( --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif" alt="" title="Sad" /><!-- s:( --> . the food looked good and the staff are chatty <!-- s:D --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="" title="Very Happy" /><!-- s:D -->

Lets wish them well in the new incarnation of the "Inn". Best of luck to them and I'll give them the business when they get the good ones on tap at the right price.

As you may know the Rathmines inn is no more <!-- s:cry: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_cry.gif" alt="" title="Crying or Very sad" /><!-- s:cry: --> -now it is called "Blackbird" and is run by the same people who own P macs

Anyone been in?

I went there on Sunday. Not overcrowded but half of the "interesting" beers on tap where actually sold out... seems a good spot, but it's definite not "handy" for people used to wander in the city center...
