Dublin: 15 °C Saturday 12 April, 2025

Half of Dublin went out for pints in the Barge last night

Sun’s out, crowd’s out.

IT WAS ONLY Monday, but with the sun splitting the stones in the capital there was one inevitability:

The Barge pub on the Grand canal in Portobello was packed out of it.

No finer spot in the city for some outdoor pints by the water

And there was some crowd out in force

Lining the canal bank in the baking sun

Because it’s rare to get such an evening in Dublin

And, despite it being a Monday, the throngs of people there last night proved the Barge is still the best spot for outdoor pints

Today is set to be hotter again – so we all know what to expect.
