Myself and my friend visited this pub on Fri the 29th Dec (2 days ago), we had travelled from Birmingham and had been here before and really enjoyed it, after spending approx 2 hours in the pub, a security guard (not the original doorman that let us in, a different one) came into the pub and told us to leave without giving us any reason, myself and my friend were not drunk - we were sat down at a table talking between us, not harming anyone. We didnât understand, so followed him out, to be told that âwe are dressed inappropriatelyâ stating âwhat sort of attention are we afterâ this came as an insult and a shock, I tried to take the doormanâs badge number, however he took it off, and started flashing his torch in our eyes. After informing him that even though it shouldnât matter what we were wearing (a skirt and a top) that we do have boyfriends, and that we were simply having a drink in a pub like everyone else, to which he laughed and said âdo you have a boyfriend? I doubt they would let you out the house like thatâ at this point, we were in complete disbelief at how rude and offensive and downright mysoginistic he was being towards us, and we started to get upset, in which he began to mock us. My friend asked for a senior manager to report him too, and he said âthere is no one above me, and no one will listen to you, look at youâ. I would seriously avoid this place if you donât want to be embarrassed and ridiculed! He ruined our night, and we went straight back to the hotel at 11:40pm.
This whole interaction, including the aforementioned comments is also captured on video, which I am happy to provide to the venue if they...
   Read moreI Went to Dublin last Saturday for a family night out, we were out enjoying ourselves and only had one drink until the doorman came up to me while I was seated super aggressively told me to leave . He completely embarrassed me infront of the entire bar when I was sitting quietly and enjoying the music, I tried to resolve what was wrong or what I had done and he continuously screamed in my face hovering over me to get out using terrible language after I had just purchased myself and my family a drink. He genuinely scared me he was that hateful and aggressive, I had to leave he then escorted me out like I was a criminal . Once I was outside he refused to give me a reason or listen to me on why I was kicked out instead he chose to pick on me a young girl and throw her out of the bar in an aggressive manner into the streets of Dublin on her own which resulted in me and my whole family having to leave and not take our drinks making an entire scene infront of the bar . I then asked him for his name and he refused to give it and said it was none of my buisness . I do not recommend this bar to any tourists or anyone travelling to Dublin around Ireland he completely ruined our night and never in my life have I been treated so disrespectfully it was like I was dirt...
   Read moreamazing pub and me and friends had the best time! played all the best live music classics with people singing along and we made so many friends. drink prices were also fair compared to other places nearby, so this was our go to for most of our trip.
the only thing that left us with a negative experience was one rude security guard on the door, the other security were lovely while still doing their job. my friend was wearing his normal clothes however on his bottom half wearing dark jogging bottoms (we had no idea there was a dress code to dublin, so that's our fault) and got let in for a few hours until we went outside and he got kicked out later on in the evening by this man very rudely. i also noticed him being rude to homeless people, who were causing no grief or anti social behaviour (i would know, im a support worker) also if we were talking to others outside and being merry (while still causing no issues) he was volatile and would ask us to move away from the pub including other guests, rudely again. it is a shame as the place is lovely. i understand security have a tough gig but do it with kindness, otherwise it'll just drive...
