Dawson Street, just next door to the La Stampa restaurant and across the road from the Mansion House.

Only opened in late 2000, this place has taken over from the 'being renovated' Cafe en Seine as Dublin's pub for the terminally trendy. If you're not feeling too good about your figure (male or female) then it might be best to avoid this place. Might depress you a bit....

Buzz four beers Mwah, mwah....prepare for air kissing central. One of Dublin's newest and trendiest spots. Some very good looking people here. Indeed the Corrs and a few Man Utd players have dropped in. Whether that thrills or disgusts you is your prerogative. I'm just mentioning it!
Decor Long. Very long and narrow. The theme is middle east to this humble beer drinker. Certainly stylish and relaxing though the stools and the couches are the most uncomfortable I've ever come across. What asshole designed them???
Scoring two beers Anything is possible though if you're not good looking and draped in Armani (men) then forget it. Bit pretentious even by the excessive standards of some spots in Dublin.
Babes + Hunks Certainly top of the range here. No doubts about that at all. None. Not a one. No sirreee.
Beer Standards four beers For a new pub, not bad. However it is becoming increasingly noticeable that people are not drinking pints (especially Guinness) as much as they did.
And the toilets? four beers Nice simple and pleasant.
Overall Drops marks for those crappy seats and the 'me-me' attitude of its punters. Still if you want to see some of Dublin's finer looking people you can't go wrong here.
