As a native of Dublin, it's very easy to become tired of large, soulless, boring, tourist-targeted pubs in and around the city centre. This wouldn't be so bad if one didn't live in the city centre.
So recently, I have taken it upon myself to go into bars that, from the outside, look like they want to suplex me. Yesterday I happened upon one in Smithfield called 'Museum Res' (presumably the T got fed up with the others and went home early in a huff). It was no bigger than an average city apartment, had two fireplaces and a barman that happily greets you when you walk in the door. No music of any kind, no bad smells, not even a hint of a special offer on any kind of booze (though it was remarkably cheap). It warmed my heart as well as my feet.
What's your favourite teensy tiny little pub?
