| Nottinghan Forest Pub. Sorry Eamonn but I couldn't resist that. In all fairness anyone who has thick skin and is not afraid to have the piss taken out of them should drop in here for a slagging. This is a great place to watch a soccer match if Paddy Cox lets you in. (Just slip him a fiver and kiss him on the cheek). He llikes that sort of thing. Get Paul Hick behind the bar to tell the story of the Ballinasloe Soccer Club trip to London in 1986. Priceless. If you support Leicester City and have a shirt to prove it, call in. You'll probably get your photo taken as proof that such fans still exist, Good pub. Full of headers. The_Inspector - 28 Nov 2008 05:31 |
| I see the pub got a 2/5 in Pubspy (in the Sunday World) last week, much higher than I would have given it. A complete dive and no mistake. anonymous - 1 May 2007 22:19 |
| Well Well! I was online going to make a comment about a pub in my home town of athlone when I seen the reply here to my last message.. I would love to be able to say I worked behind that bar but Im not that lucky.. Im also getting the feeling that with the pubs that you list below that you are either part of the "high flying" un-wanted group of people or you havent got a clue of a bit of craic when you see it(okay out of them I havent been in one).. Im going to leave this as my last message here as I dont want to lower myslef to this level again.. Im so sorry to all of the gang in the usual for the sad comments passed between us here I will tell you all again who I am over a pint... Thanks again one of the best & yes I would love to be behind that bar! Who wouldnt.. Anyone is welcome to put a word in.. anonymous - 29 Dec 2006 05:31 |
| I wouldn't pay any heed to the post immediately below this as the author clearly works there. I know The Usual & it's a complete dive. 3rd worst pub in the town (after Joe's & The Cellar). anonymous - 20 Dec 2006 21:42 |
| Great Pub! Have always had a great time day or night! DJ & Live bands at the weekend Poker comps & Games club during the week! I dont know where you went son of oak maybe you would suit the pub down the road a bit better you could sit by yourself in the corner... Never had any trouble when Ive been in & the staff have always been dead on! Anytime I want to watch a soccer game its my first stop.. Im not saying Ballinasloe is great but The usual has always looked after me & anyone I know... If you want to have a bit of craic & chill out you will in The Usual.. Thanks to all the gang in the Usual! You have the best Guinness in Ballinasloe.. anonymous - 17 Nov 2006 01:01 |
