Do you miss the pub?

Pubs in Australia have opened as normal and no new cases associated with pubs or restaurants.

The gym in Raheny closed as well.

The owner put a massive amount of money into renovating it and now it's unsustainable.

I was paying 199 for 18 months. Unreal value and the location was perfect for me as well.

Many more pubs, gyms restaurants will go to the wall.

I read over the PDF last night I must have missed that. They've advertised it on Facebook anyway i dont get the hole music thing being banned.  lads socially distancing up on stage and playing away from everyone. how are they different to the people sitting around them drinking or eating.  Tbf Courtney Love only had one or two hits so dont see them being missed too much.

Live music leading to dancing and general f**king about

Still owned by the crowd who own the Cock n Bull in Coolock and the Bottle Tower in Churchtown.

Still owned by the crowd who own the Cock n Bull in Coolock and the Bottle Tower in Churchtown. The one in coolock is owned by a lad from donnycarney...he was meant to changed the name after he bought it but some legal issue (costs) meant he kept the name.the ex owners bought the station house called it cock and bull then had to change it to the Manhattan because they didn’t want to be associated with the coolock pub of the then same name. Foxhound in kilbarrack is gone aswell I heard...no real loss but the natives down there will be restless.

I think lads are getting mixed up. Not every measure is based on science.  The industry is given a framework that they have to work within based on science then they come up with the rules and overarching body that is based on mix of that advice and commercial factors etc.  The less than 2 hours thing is to increase turnover in many ways esp outside. It’s to keep

My favourite pubs in Dublin are the smaller ones where social distancing will be neigh on impossible, The Confession Box, Briodys, The Flowing Tide, The Sackvilke to name a few. Don't know how they are expected to reopen and operate under current guidelines. As for the question, to me it's not missing the pub, it's more having the option of going to the pub being removed. I would go for 6/7 pints on a Friday night most weeks, so it's a small change to my routine, missing the whole Friday night football and pre/post match pints more. Friday night is/was my bit of freedom from family responsibilities.
