The Leopardstown Inn - Blackrock

The Leopardstown Inn or the Lep as its known by locals/regulars is about a 3 minute walk from my house. I guess I dont really take advantage of that fact too much though! There is always plenty of people frequenting this place. It is pretty busy at the weekends and especially St. Stephens day with the crowd from the Leopardstown races popping in after. Great bar food. Great award winning restaurant upstairs called Greens. Now for the piesta resistance the cocktail carousel bar and it revolves! After you are served fantastic cocktails by the award winning mixologists you may be confused if you leave your seat and return perplexed scratching your head thinking 'hmm I 'm sure I left my seat here '. Dont worry though it will come around shortly! Great place , great atmosphere and great staff. Free WFi.

Although I was never a huge fan of the 'Lep Inn ' Its versatility and popularity are certainly evident. Its new extension dubbed 'Carousel cocktail bar ' is pretty unique and if you can get over the awful decoration you can enjoy the revolving carousel bar, see what thats like after a few pints. New refurbishment aside, the rest of the pub hasn 't really changed. They still serve decent pints, cocktails and dish up a Carvery lunch everyday. The portions are huge and its no surprise the place is always jammed at lunchtime. Theres also bar food if you just want to have a snack. It 's pretty standard pub stuff chicken goujons,scampi, fish chips. As always gets a big local attendance, Sunday lunchers and the crowd on the way to club 92.

Locally known as 'The Lep Inn. ' Not a bad pub. I come here sometimes for lunch and the food is pretty standard pub grub. I have to say that I am a fan of the revolving bar though. It looks like a merry go round!

You know the sort of bar that is so busy that its really hard to describe? Well this place is one of those not busy as in there are so many punters you cant get to the bar to get a pint but busy architecturally as a first date bar this place would be great, you could get hours out of describing the eccentric interior. The Bar food is pretty good and they always have waitresses to hand to bring the food and drink to the table. The newest addition to the pub is an extension incorporating a revolving bar, the barman showed me the other day how they can change the speed it revolves at but after a couple of pints I was very glad they leave it on the lowest setting for the most part. For the smokers among you (BOOOO, hissssss, dreadful habbit etc.... I can tell you they have a very nice smoking area with heaters and seating and many a happy eve I have wiled there puffing away!

Locally know as The Lep Inn , I went there for a work lunch. The place itself was very nice and the food was tasty (they have a pretty great carvery selection). There is a revolving bar apparently which is meant to be pretty cool but, being there for lunch, I didn 't get to try it. Nice pub, a bit far out for me but wouldn 't mind going back to check out the revolving bar.
