1009755 Three Tun Tavern

The first JD Wetherspoon pub to open in Dublin, back in 2014 and one of the cheapest pubs in Dublin. It also probably has the least prominent Wetherspoon branding of any pub in the chain; albeit I've clearly not been to the 1000 of them!

Whatever you may think of Wetherspoons pubs probably still applies here - its fairly large, there's no background music or TV noise, there's a unique carpet and the prices are very low.

The dearest draught pint is under €4; cask ales are €2.75 - when you consider this includes Jaipur at 5.9% this is incredibly cheap.

Like the initial few Wetherspoons, this is in an existing pub premises; this one is claimed to go back to the 18th Century originally. This gives it slightly more of a Dublin pub feel than you might expect but it is still very like the rest of the chain.

I didn't look at the food prices, assuming they'd be online - but they aren't. They're not dear either, though; but the food is not fantastic by any means. However, you're unlikely to find a meal and drinks cheaper anywhere else in Blackrock and the nearest similar priced pub would be S3795 Forty Foot which is *another* Wetherspoons.
