<p>Indeed, the cost of a night out can be steep. I've found the smaller, back street locals are more reasonable in their prices</p>

<p>I was once an enthusiastic pub-goer loving the atmosphere, conversation and music. During a recent three-week visit to Ireland I only visited a pub once. Two pints of Guinness and a vodka and orange cost 15 Euros. That is the price of the bus fare between Galway and Dublin. Or a meal for two at Sherwood Restaurant in the agriculture mart facility on the Quinn Road, Ennis, County Clare. Or...well, you get the message. </p>

<p>would love to, but have my hands full with my newborns and rarely get out.</p>
<p>If you go into a pub by yourself sit the bar. Its the best place to meet people.</p>
<p>Do not give a tip. The barstaff do not expect it.</p>
<p>If you are drinking with an Irish person they buy you a drink, you buy them a drink, no matter what sex you are, or a round if you are in a group. We despise people male or female who accept drinks but do not return the favour.</p>
<p>is it true you leave your money…</p>

<p>a car gives you that bit more freedom. Leitrim should have plenty of real pubs though expect the conversation to stop and everyone to stare at you when you open the door. Are you taking the train west? From Connolly or Heuston? Nancy Hands is a nice pub 5 minute walk from Heuston, Nice as in a nice pint and atmosphere but more than likely no trad secession (very few pubs do trad in Dublin and if they do its for the tourists only. Cobblestones is an exception) . Connolly is not a great area…</p>
