This was my favourite pub in Dublin. Porthouse has three floors and several bars, so you shouldn't have a hard time finding a seat, nor do you have to wait very long to get a pint. Tried several of their homemade beers (Brainbuster and the red were quite good...well all were good, really). Live music, no cover. Beer was on... more

She remembered us when we returned the next night. First choice of food was not available, the burger I got instead was pretty decent. We shared 3 sampler trays to get... more

A bit soul-less for me. more
