So due to head to friends holiday home near Dunfanaghy at the weekend, might be off now as unfortunately for her she's tested positive for covid..

So was looking at other homes around that area, obviously some decent priced places, but came across one, 2 nights, 3 bedroom £2,120!!!  ;D

Going to be in Dublin shortly with a few relatives doing some touristy type things. Where's decent for a few pints in or near the city centre that's reasonable as Dublin prices go?

Plenty of talk about the price of a pint in Belfast but you'd be hard push to find a cheap pint in Dublin, especially south of the Liffey, plenty of put that I like O'Donoghues Bar, McDaids good few on or near Dame street Keoghs pub good old fashioned pub..

Ah, need to get down for some Guinness soon
Dublins always been known to be dear for a pint though, Belfast seems to have went totally bonkers price wise since lockdown.
Had Guinness in Kehoe's in Dublin recently - €5.90 a pint.
Harbour Master in IFSC was €6.20.

Do they stick with that price in the hope that some sucker will pay it?
Can't see idea of these ridiculous prices if they can't get what they re asking

Anyone been to Galway recently?  Expensive?  Hopefully not dublin prices!

If this thread is correct, Belfast is more expensive for pints than Dublin

Let no-one say the best hurlers belong to the past. They are with us now, and better yet to come

The whole accommodation sector  is away to f*ck and now up here is just as bad as "down south", previously it would also have been dear.

One night in Galway for the races, anything left on booking.com is looking £400+ for the Friday night,  for two people lol. Some craic

The fact that pints in Belfast can be as dear as Dublin says it all. The two cities don't compare at all.

Ireland is just simply undo-able and I would not give over 150 a night to any establishment. Maybe Dublin for special occasions but that's cos it has a lot going for it.

Places like Donegal charging this is just hilarious. If it rains you're f*cked. And don't tell me anything different. Put on your rain coat surely and go for a hike / walk but sure it's miserable as.

Saw a place in Kerry charging €3.90 for a Guinness! I'd near drive the length of the country to give them my custom!

Was there too after derry and dub games last  week,stayed there most of the night as was reasonable enough for dub prices before  heading to temple bar and paying 7 euro  for  a pint. Some establishments in that area charge over 8 euro.
you've only had enough to drink when you cant hold onto the ground
