McDaids is arguably Dublin's flagship literary pub. Back in the day you could stroll into McDaids and listen to Patrick Kavanagh cajole people for drink while Brendan Behan would be sitting in the corner clacking away on a typewriter as Flann O Brien and JP Donleavy enjoyed a jar.
While it's modern literary prowess might not be what it used to, it remains one of the great Dublin pubs to this day and well worth a visit by anyone wanting to see what Dublin pubs are all about.
What's your favourite Irish literary pub?

The Long Stone we hardly knew ye.
You stood proudly on Townsend Street for over 200 years and now they've decided to knock you down. We never even took our chance to photograph you while you were open and now it's too late. Soon you'll follow your neighbour - Ned into the dusty abyss and take your rightful place in Valhalla, and all we can do to console ourselves is to think of cliches - you really don't know what you have until it's gone.
We went to visit you on your last day and came to realise what fools we have been not to have spent more time drinking within your confines. We were like flies scutting along the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel - ignorant of the beauty upon which we were standing.
It's true that I've said things in the past that you mightn't have liked. I was no fan of the hot nut machine that sat atop your front bar and bathed all around it in an uncomfortable fiery hue. I certainly bemoaned the price of your drink on more than one occasion, but none of that matters now.
How we wish you were still open. How we wish we could saunter into the back bar and sit at the mouth of a 10ft sculpture of Odin's head and gaze upon your bespoke wooden features, your slate flooring, your ancient hanging banners.
But we can't visit you anymore. The newspapers say that a wrecking ball is due on-site in January. They'll probably build a hotel on the ground upon which you currently stand. Tourists might come to stay and they'll ask if there are any good pubs around. No, we'll respond... Just hotels.
Rest in peace, The Long Stone. We'll miss you.

J O'Connell's: South Richmond St.
Sitting in the middle of the Caribbean Sea there lies a small city on the northern coast of Panama with a population of five thousand people. This city boasts a tropical maritime climate and a quick search online shows me that it’s currently bathing in a sunshine which has brought a temperature in the region of the high twenties. This is in stark contrast to the current Irish weather conditions which have, in the last few days, began to exude that icy November chill that has you finally digging out your biggest coat from the back of the wardrobe. Thankfully I’m sheltered from said iciness, but less thankfully is the fact that I’m in work - in a drab office block, and aside from writing this, I’m also neglecting my professional duties by perusing a collection of images of this little city mentioned above. It’s a picturesque place - dense forest-like growth buffers between land and sky on all inland horizons while horizons off into the Caribbean look just as exotic as you might expect The Caribbean would.
I’m sure some of you might be starting to wonder where I’m going with this. Well, the reason why I’m harping on about such a far-flung place is namely down to the fact that in the last few weeks - we happened to have a pint in an area of Dublin which not only is a namesake of this Caribbean town, but happens to have actually been named after it. The area we refer to is Portobello.
So as it would turn out, this fair little canal-side district was so named, not after a type of mushroom, as yours truly had thought, but instead from the occasion of some aul colonial English prick getting one over on some aul colonial Spanish bollox. This delightful little bloodbath, which happened in 1739 is now referred to as The War of Jenkins' Ear. But enough about that. [1/3 Contd. In Comments]
