County No. 9 DUBLIN
Town Dublin (Tallaght)
Pub Grumpy McClafferty's (Plaza Hotel)


We arrived into Dublin at around 16:30 on Day 2 and despite being on the M50 heading south, we managed to spot a pub beside the Plaza Hotel.

To our delight, the bar was absolutely heaving with young women in various states of inebriation and face painting. As we sipped our pints, we were swept into the growing madness of St. Paddy's day with the help of Piano Pete and his crude brand of Celtic rave. But, with our twenty minutes elapsing all too soon, we had to reluctantly sink our drinks and return to the freezing, minor hurricane weather outside. Most people we met were now quite pissed, which may explain why this was the worst photograph of the entire trip!

Would we go back?
Nice spot with a top hotel just next door. And what a great name for a pub!
Best Moment
Admiring the crazed electronic fiddler belting out tunes at a ligament-rupturing rate and then realising that he was actually miming to a CD
