Rory’s, Temple Bar, Dublin

Post by Tengisgol »

In amongst all the madness, a gem of a shop with glass counter and wooden drawers!

Yes it's a nice shop in the busiest tourist area of that fine city. I always get drawn to it after a pint or three of Guinness. I can't think why?

I didn't see that shop the last time I visited the Temple Bar, having said that though, I had enough trouble seeing my hands (all six of them!) and my legs didn't work properly for days :cheers:
That weekend's stag doo was the reason I gave up drinking in anything but serious moderation. :surrender:

Used by many of my Irish fishing pals and highly recommended.In Ireland at the moment finishing the season on Lough Corrib.Fishing appalling today.No fish and no rises and no fly! I can catch more fish in the UK but still enjoy the experience!

Yes a great shop - and then there are a few outstanding pubs and my personal favourites the pipe and tobacco shops - Dublin has it all.
