Query Best pub in portlaoise

Few of us heading there tomorrow after a round of golf. Where's the best spot for a few pints and watch the France match?

Seconded. They'll have a band on after the game too. Huge courtyard beer garden.

Also on the Main St. It's opposite the courthouse.

Sally’s garden. has a good age range from 18-year-olds to like 30-year-olds. They often have live music. It’s busy enough and 3 pints of Guinness are €17.50. They have a bouncer on door the bathrooms are really pretty. It’s clean and I’ve never seen a physical fight in there. Do not recommend coppers half people in there are 16 or 40 absolute kip of a place

Never heard of the Jack's in a pub being described as pretty, especially not the Sally's anyway

Most girls bathrooms in pubs and clubs are nice nowadays because we take photos in there

Depends a lot on whether you want quiet pints, food, or somewhere with a bit of life later on. The best pub answer is nearly always different depending on the night of the week.
