I mainly go to Copper Face Jacks with my friends because it has its half 3 late license and most of the others only stay open till half 2 (by the way I know that place has a reputation for a particular crowd, but it's good craic). Is there any clubs with a more pub feel to them that are any good. We tried Fitzsimons of Temple bar which is kind of what I am looking for but minus the tourists. Nothing against our lovely American, English, German etc. visitors, I just get a bit sick of the whole 'wow I love your accent', 'I love Irish people' etc. (you know what I mean)So basically a pub with a 'clubish' vibe and GOOD music (I hate dance music)
There are a couple of Clubs in Powerscourt Town House Centre, South William Street, off Grafton Street it is a nice area of Dublin, and there are a few more clubs around there. Have a Ball!
The one near Blooms Hotel is Club M. it's quite good
There is one attached to Blooms Hotel in Temple Bar and I can't think of the name just now. There is also the Ozone. Think it is on O'Connell St. Have heard it is good and good value as well. Break for the border used to be my favourite until the crowd got too young!
