Very lovely place to have a drink, staff is wonderful prices are resonable
Room was great, had everything we needed. Wifi worked well in rooms and in the pub. Door staff was helpful, and the restaurant and breakfast was great. It was very loud at night however! From 10pm-3am. But that is expected for the area, and the hotel even gave out ear plugs, although I did not need them to be able to sleep.
I was here last week. I found the staff friendly the drink good and the music fantastic. Well worth a visit.
Cheap (for Dublin) and cheerful. Great location. Lovely view of a wall from our bedroom. Good bar downstairs
Can have great music. The food isn't that great though unfortunately. Good atmosphere in the pub!
Only visited for a drink with my girlfriend. Was a nice place, nice staff and very relaxing a atmosphere. We visited late afternoon on a Friday, however I'm sure it would get really busy and lively later on a Friday. Would go again!!
It was an amazing pub/club the staff where friendly and the drinks where reasonably priced for city centre bar. Food was also so tasty. The bar stopped serving food at half 9 and drink at 3 am.
I think the mercantile really should teach his bouncers how to
- be polite and respectful (I'm almost sure a 22 yo girl, 50kg, sober and smiling, is not any danger to a big tall bouncer)
- differentiate someone genuinely smiling who literally had ZERO alcohol from someone who is drunk I think I don't need to "evacuate all the drinks and go for a walk and come back when I'm better" when I'm just coming out of a restaurant and only had water
It is quite concerning to see how someone can be that bad doing his job and if I only have water to evacuate, this bouncer surely has some anger and frustration too.
So please, learn to be polite and respectful with people doing so with you, and try to develop a better sense of discernment. If you are not able to do that you should probably be worried about your mental health and change job.
If you want to enjoy your night independently of the bouncer's good will, don't go to the mercantile
Hotel: Convenient located in the heart of the Temple Bar District. Very nice room and was perfectly taken care of. Checking into the hotel was a breeze too. At 65€ it was one of the least expensive places to stay in this area.
Restaurant: I had the supreme chicken, soup and a slice of chocolate cheese cake. All three courses were perfect. The wait staff was very attentive to customers needs and provided a great service.
Overall it was a perfect stay here.
Great lively bar, fantastic cocktails
Great place. I would usually go here if I'm over the southside of the city and looking for a pint. Never seen it too full and can get a seat and to and from the bar easily enough. Cocktails were very nice and there is a good selection of craft beer. Staff were great every time I've been.
