Spotted in the window of Foleys Pub on Merrion Row. The pub is literally a stones-throw (Careful now, we might get there yet) from the Department of Finance and the Department of the Taoiseach.
Foleys is a cosy little pub worth a look, so often forgotten as Toners, Doheny and Nesbitts and O’ Donoghues all call this part of Dublin home too. I don’t know which type of T.D it attracts, but based on this one, I’d presume they’re in the opposition. A great piece of wit in the window, but as far as NAMA pie goes- I reckon we’ve enough to feed a few generations.

Is this the same Foleys that was one of the first building which had a Union Jack hanging outside it as soon as English Queens was announced she was coming to meet her subjects in Ireland?
Only today I saw the self same pub had one of my fave flags flying on it’s Merrion Row facade: it’s a copy of the “Irish Republic” which was one of two above GPO on Easter Monday 1916 (the other being the tricolour). The “Irish Republic” one is a white background with the words in green Gaelic script.
What’s the story w this pub??…pimp themselves to any punter in a most obvious manner? No shame?
