So, Wetherspoons encroach the pub trade in Dublin, next week (Tuesday 8th) opening The Three Tun Tavern (not much on it yet, but here's the link to their website page, which no doubt will gather more information soon) in Blackrock, in the premises previously known as Tonic Bar.
So what is being offered here, at prices that should undercut other bars in the area, when considering Wetherspoons record in the UK? Well, decent value food all day, of course, and they have 12 handpumps for cask ales. They are looking at supplies from microbreweries in Ireland, as well as importing ales from Britain; Adnams ales being mentioned already.
What they won't be serving is Guinness as they cannot get a satisfactory price, consequently, not being able to undercut other bars' prices, I presume... But they will be serving up Murphy's and Beamish at 5 cents under 4 Euros a pint, which should be competitive, from what I've heard recently!
So there you go, drinking in Ireland will suddenly become less expensive.. Good luck to The Three Tun Tavern and cheers to Wetherspoons!
