Ridiculously good talent in Scarlet Bar but there never seems to be anybody getting blocked.  I'd probably plump for the Queen Vic if only to have a pint with Patrick and Jim and try the hand with Stacey, and when you get knocked back there's always Pat Butcher.

Ah but theres always a chance of a row in the Vic.
Doesnt happen in the Rovers for some reason.
Plus you have them nice we cubicles in the Rovers and the new kebab shop just outside!

The Woolpack. Good country folk and you'd have a laugh with the Dingles.

would have to agree with Candyman, the talent in there is unreal, especially the MILF that is married to Jack!

What a thread! Can see this one running! Each has their own particular points of appeal!

The Queen Vic would be great for getting a rattle at a few dirty weemin. Between those two muck bags behind the bar, Stacey, that Mechanic and the best of the bunch - Dirtbag Dawn - you'd not be short on options at the end of the night.  Could see myself drinking a few pints of unspecific with Jim and Patrick alright, washed down with a few rum chasers then off to Beales for a fish supper before bailing into whatever bird i'd picked up.

Rovers would be grand for a pint at lunchtime.  The factory crew would be in necking a few (before they head back to their machines!) and Betty's Hot pot looks the ticket.  theres also not much competition for the fancy pieces now that the great Charlie Stubbs has left us.

Scarlet Bar though would be my preference.  I could just imagine sitting in their checking out the ample local talent and discussing some of my favourite Drew Kirk (RIP) stories.  The only drawback are the half pints and the fact that with the Doc and Robbo around it would be pretty hard to score!

What about the Galley in Carrickstown? Has to be a better bet than Mc Coys nowadays?

Also it is possible to have a drink in the real life pub that was used in Glenroe. Molly Malone's in Kilcoole, outside Greystones

Jacksies Bar in Killinaskully. You'd talk sh1te for Ireland in there all day I'd say. I've been the pub loads of times (it's close to me), but Dan the Man or the other two lads are never there. Must be after emigrating.

Can only be the Scarlet Bar from that list. Preferred the Waterhole though, frequented by Erinsborugh's finest just like the Scarlet Bar but more of a traditional pub. Lou was a good man to have behind the bar as well.

Think Shameless is more of a series than a soap, but if it is included it wins hands down
Good call clarshack
