Hello,
I think it was because they were smoking after the smoking ban took effect.
4 of us walked in after we had dinner at Fiddler's Creek, and asked for a round of Smithwicks.The barkeep said he did not serve Americans, matter the fact he has been known to kick them out on their asses !!! I waved my credit card and said I would take my drinking dollars elsewhere !!
Talked to the bouncers at "McHugh's", and they said they would walk over and tell them they were dead wrong for turning us away.
BTW, it was me, my wife and another middle aged couple. Not a bunch of rowdy of college kids !
I had such a great time at other pubs in Ireland, that It really did not bother me.
I loved:
Matt Malloy's (Westport)
Campbells (Near Crough Patrick)
JW's Pub (Westport)
Powers (Oughterard)
Gaynors (Leenane)
Gaughn's (Balina)
McHugh's (Sligo)
Quay's and Kings Head (Galway)
Cheers !
Mark
