http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19389
A good tip is to buy a Family ticket which costs €10. This is available from the counter just inside the door of the airport. This ticket gives two adults and up to four kids unlimited travel on all Dublin bus services for 24 hours.

This can be used on the Airlink - I always use it when my partner and I go to Dublin and then use it to go around Dublin.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19389 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19154 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/19154 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18745 I'm recommending it on the strength that it is the best place to drink outside in central Dublin, legally.

On a Thursday and more so on a Friday there will be literally thousands of people, students, office slaves and more, sitting in the sun drinking. Drinks can be bought at the bar- 4 cans of larger for €8 - or more often brought in. Sometimes there's cricket on, and you can laze and look at that, or the stunning Berkley Library full of studying students, all wishing they were down on the grass next to you.

Other activities might include an impromptu kick about, impromptu sing-a-long, frisbee game, streaker and other studenty type activities.
Food and other drinks available and there's a very limited selection of beers and stouts on tap, but buying drink in there seems against the whole spirit of the thing.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18745 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18408 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/18408 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/17372 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/17372 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12968 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12968 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12967 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12967 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12964 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12964 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12116 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/12116 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11870
We got 2-3 courses, sometimes with a free glass of house red for as little as eight euros a head, great service and fairly quiet and huge portions.

Evening menu's were pretty much the same but cost over 20 euros a head! Temple Bar had enough resaurants to last us the 5 days we were in Dublin, yum! Then there was a fantastic ice crem parlour on the walk back to our hostel - believe me, by this time, we needed the walk!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11870 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11784
Great value early bird menu between 6-8pm. Often quiet, but fills up on the weekends.

No bookings taken.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11784 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11675
Most of the accommodation listed has visitor ratings too!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/11675 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10881 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10881 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10830
Tea and coffee in our room would have been good, instead of out of a machine, in a polystyrene cup that we had to go down 3 flights of stairs, (no lift), to get.

A full Irish breakfast does not consist of a plate of rubbery scrambled egg with a couple of bits of toasts. There was fruit scones and croissants on offer, but fresh not stale would have been really nice. To sum it up, we will NOT be stayimg there again!]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10830 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10388 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10388 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10039 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/10039 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8095 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/8095 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4169 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4169 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4138 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/4138 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3617 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/3617
