Price of beer in Dublin pubs

[gaz76]

Kinda strange people moaning about the price of beer in Ireland, 7 euro is about 6 quid, which is about the price of a pint in most places over here now.
Temple bar has always been a tourist trap, pretty much like buying a pint in covent garden, you ain't getting much change out of tenner round there

And there’s loads of good bars away from the Temple Bar strip.
You should be able to have a good night anywhere for under €7 a pint.

Proud to have found a few bars still with a 5 euro pint of Guinness. Usually a bit out from city centre.

The lark on meath street.

I go every few years for the 6 nations rugby and always avoid Temple Bar and the like, Plenty of reasonably priced ale about off the beaten track ..

Ireland is a rich country compared to the UK. So it's like going to Switzerland. You can expect prices to be a tad higher. (Check GDP per person if in doubt.)

I would go back to Ireland for football but I’d stay outside of Dublin this time and get the train in.

Tend to find capital cities a bit underwhelming. Madrid and Paris certainly.

That's just under €48 (£40:50p at today's exchange rate) for three pints, a vodka and a red bull. Now, Temple Bar is one of the more extortionate areas of Dublin, but even so; that's not a big round. 4 drinks (assuming the Vodka and Red Bull will be coupled up).

Temple Bar area: the biggest theme park rip off known to man and it’s an absolute dump. Steer clear.

Temple bar is fun for a few hrs but if I wanted to spend a day surrounded by a load of fucknuggets dressed in all manner of silly costumes, spewing all over the street and pissing up lampposts I’ll head an hour up the coast to Benidorm where I can at least experience it in the sunshine.
