Well you are going to have that regardless of what is and isn't open.

I agree though, there is usually an aura of arrogance when a group of of lager lads come together. That was the one reason i didn't like garvey's for so long, when aussie legends shut down i tried a few places. Irish harp is ok when it is quiet, not too keen on it on a busy night. Sherizad, well it's not the best that's for sure, still reasonably priced but tends to have a few problems on a busy night. Orions, just don't like the atmosphere there and i can't get comfortable. Bubbles, not for me, i'll take a girl there because ladies generally enjoy the place. Palomas, not too keen on it, and it's quite far from me, as is ritz.

so that pretty much left me with the rugby club and garvey's. Garvey's you wouldn't catch me dead in on a busy night, but when it's quiet i did like it well enough.

I just miss Amigos.
