Tamangos! Where the gang goes!, said the ad that everyone living anywhere near Dublin the 90s and early 00s probably heard multiple times a day.
It was pretty much the norm for a hotel to have a nightclub in that era, and while nearly all of them are now gone (excepting on Harcourt Street, where most remain); Tamango - the s has gone missing - was one of the last ones standing. But it hasn't opened regularly since 2020; although it does open for specific performances, underage nights and fundraisers.
The hotel bar, however, is still very much open. I visited on a warm end-of-Summer/early Autumn evening, and sat outside as the bar was pretty close to full. With the nearly-local Hope on tap, this is definitely a nice place to spend a bit of time. It'd be even nicer if they could make the carpark vanish to improve the view, somehow
One of the nicer pint vistas in Dublin, but it does suffer a lot when you sit down and the carpark becomes your eyeline pic.twitter.com/6Am9dRJEii
