Not really wanting to queue to then probably have to stand while eating, or wait for a significant period in any of the casual sit-down places I was seriously considering getting a bus out to somewhere quieter when I remembered the glut of hotels near Parnell Square. I've been to most of them, and many have relatively quiet bars - but I hadn't been to Jurys.
And it probably has the quietest bar of the lot, being on the second floor and not massively promoted from outside, although they do willingly let non-guests in. As probably the only non-guest there, I was able to get a comfortable table and read my way through the paper as well as get a fairly good lunch.
I would warn that they certainly know how to charge here - a pint, soup and a fancy sandwich came to over 30 quid - but if you need somewhere to escape its probably the poshest/nicest of options.I forget to get any pics of anything other than the bucket-of-condiments (Tabasco sauce *and* vinegar that's probably actually allowed be called vinegar - they really are spoiling us), but it is quite plush
By bucket I mean it's actually in a bucket. Even have Tabasco which you don't normally get in the bowl-of-sachet places pic.twitter.com/I1xL36jY4v— Cian Duffy (@cian_duffy) December 14, 2019
