S0131 The Hairy Lemon

Meh. I'm not sure if there's much more to say here, but I try to avoid giving one line reviews except where somewhere is actually awful, and this isn't awful; but its barely worth it.
 
As discovered over the course of the weekend which will be partially documented in posts here, Dubliners are addicted to brunch, meaning that getting a late breakfast is close to impossible in anywhere that specifically advertises itself as doing such. So we headed to somewhere that doesn't.

A rather expensive breakfast with, very specifically, one of everything other than toast was obtained. One sausage, one rasher does not a Full Irish make, even with the other bits added in.

The waitress didn't know what was on draught - which they don't even have a huge volume of; and what was obtained was quite dear.

There are many, many worse pubs in Dublin but there's a better one diagonally across the junction (S3221 PMacs), and in the multiple times we passed it appeared that plenty of other people realised this too. PMacs was busy, the Hairy Lemon was not.

  1. The Hairy Lemon belongs spiritually in Temple Bar. It's going to find things tough without tourists. As for a decent time-flexible breakfast, you'd miss Wetherspoons.
