Geeez... OK I know this sounds trivial but really if you want to put a picture of a Dublin pub on your post put a picture of a 'genuine' one what ever that might be. Temple Bar (the street where the Temple Bar pub is located) is just a drinking den for English stag and hen nights. Sweep up the vomit and piss the following morning. Maybe that is what the Irish pub has become? 

The pub is made to look like an 'old pub' but it is not.

But then the type of pub it is supposed to represent only ever existed as a mythology anyway - kind of like the church I suppose
