N0209 Clarkes Phibsborough House

This is the first in a series of an evening in Phibsboro(ugh). For a small enough suburb, Phibsboro seems to have the densest collection of traditional pubs in the entire county and this is one of them

Exceptionally quiet - noise wise, there were plenty of customers - this was a slightly strange experience. The other customers were either watching the racing or talking extremely quietly. One TV showed a low-rent UK music station but was muted and the racing was down quite low.

A power cut which affected the entire area occurred while I was in the pub - unfortunately it was the early evening in May as I would have liked to see if the barman tried to light the bar with candles or similar!
