The decor is exactly what I imagined, complete with stained glass and a real stag's head. Ordered the fish and chips, which were crisp on the outside with a flavorful batter, and tender fish on the inside. It also came with a nice little pea salad, with mushy peas and whole peas together with the greens. I definitely need to make this! Also got the Irish Cottage Pie and it was very tasty - rich in flavor but lighter than I expected, in a good way. Shared a pint of Guiness (just missed splitting the G - lol) and finished with an Irish coffee, which hit the spot. This is definitely a great place to go for a quiet pint or for a fun night of food and friends.

We were immediately acknowledged and seated at the room next to the bar area. Our server was Sacha. We started off with a pint of Guinness (e7.50) & a glass of wine (e8). Dinner was authentic Shepard's Pie (e19.50) - large dish of lamb & potatoes, served piping hot & was excellent. Also their beef & Guinness pie w/ champ & peas (e22) - good portion, hot, & delicious. Menu is traditional with some modern offerings. Dinners run e18-22. Lunch e12-18. Hours: Mon-Sat 12pm-11:30pm, closed Sun. No street parking. Best to use public transport. Overnight guest rooms are available via reservations. We had been here four years ago and it was more then good enough to go again this year.

A group of us wandered down the dark alley one Sunday afternoon, a little anxious about what we might discover... Pleasantly surprised to find ourselves inside a Sleeping Beauty-like cavern of candlelit wonder, we stopped to marvel over the interior before giving the solitary bar man his rush of the century. The place was empty before we arrived, but luckily we'd brought a large enough group to make the entire place our own. The candelabras, mood lighting and high, domed ceilings make this place enchantingly atmospheric, but let's not forget the practicalities. Recipe for a good night with a large group: large tables - check, cheap beer (3.40 a pint!!!) - check, pool table - check... Ok this place is a winner. And get this - they even have a foozeball table! Rad! The toilets are definitely worth a gander... many, many mirrors, and easy to get lost in after a few pints of the dark stuff.

Decided to try it for dinner. Had the wings and chili beef. The wings were simply amazing. Full of flavour and not spicy. I like spice and heat but will always choose flavour over those. The chili beef was the perfect mains for a cold day. Nicely species chili beef with the perfect amount of cumin. Served with - get this - rice, chips, and tortilla crisps!!! The chips were skin on and perfectly cooked. The crisps were out of. Bag but perfect for dipping. I'm calling this chili beef three ways. The three options on a plate are genius. And filling. OMG was it filling. And Beer. Had two jars of the wheat. Nice but prefer their red. The house beer is really good. Don't mistake this place for a tourist venue. When a match is in you'll find it full of locals. Have dinner (or lunch). Have some beer. Chat with the friendly staff. Chat with Glen. Super friendly and. Good service. Sit upstairs. Nice up there.

I think the hubby sat this one out and the rest of us got one pour each of most likely red breast 12. That's kinda what we had been drinking most of the night. I'm not sure on pricing, but the charge was $38.44 USD, so I'm guessing it was about what I listed above in euro. It was actually pretty busy when we got here. Ended up sitting outside to have the drinks. Your standard kinda divey pub / bar. Fun fact, I heard this is called The Ginger Man since it's named after the novel of the same name by JP Donleavy. The book is set in Dublin in the late 40s and the protagonist is a hard drinking student at Trinity College. REVIEW #4124

For fun early houses that serve already somewhat inebriated people, try The Chancery. The Wind Jammer is the type of early house that caters to shift workers and Gardaí from Pearse St coming off the night shift. Apart from a few couples the morning after the Trinity Ball, they wouldn't let in too many post-club revellers. The door is closed most early mornings, and they have a CCTV camera to give ya a good hard scrutinising before they'll let you in. The only time I was there for early pints, there was only one other group of young lads there and the barman looked like he was about to stop serving them. During the rest of the day and night, the Wind Jammer is a quiet pub frequented mainly by old, grumpy locals, who would sooner bite your head off than ask you the time of day. If you're really desperate for a drink and can't make it til half ten when the rest of the pubs open, by all means go to The Wind Jammer. Otherwise, there isn't that much else to recommend to it. Oh, one other thing. The Wind Jammer is the closest pub to Windmll Lane Studios, so U2 and The Saw Doctors among others have retired there for post-recording session pints over the years. Not the type of thing that would interest me, but sure it might interest you so I thought that I'd tack it on the end there
