Porterhouse Central - Blog

February 2012

Greetings friend,

Welcome to the Porterhouse website from all the staff here in Central.

Well, the snow stayed away this Christmas (thank God), so it was nice and busy. Lots of those nice “12 pubs of Christmas” people in their Santa suits sipping on Jagerbombs, we can’t wait to see them next year. That’s all over now, let’s look to this year.

January has been pretty good, with our staff party on the 9th which saw the staff from London coming over to join all of the staff from the Porterhouse bars and Tapas bars here for a right knees-up. One of the best staff parties to date.

Now that February has arrived we kick off our 6 Nations rugby season on the 4th. Central has 8 screens including 2 massive projectors, making it the one stop shop for the 6 Nations. The atmosphere here is unrivalled if you can’t be at the match. We will also be showing the Superbowl on Sunday 5th February for all you American football fans.

Valentines Day (14th February) falls on a Tuesday this year, Music quiz night. Central may not be the most romantic pub in the city, but it does do a good cocktail. If you are single it can be the place to find “love”, or for couples to just get away from all those restaurants with all their little tables for two.

The 6 Nations will move into March concluding on Paddy’s Day 17th with our match against England. The Patricks Day Festival runs from 16th - 19th March, with plenty of events around the city. We are expecting a packed pub on Paddy’s Day so we will serve food upstairs, Dancing and Drinking downstairs. DJ’s will be starting at 5.30pm.

Thanks for taking time out to read this, we hope to have more gossip for you in our next instalment.

Cheers,

Porterhouse Central and all her crew.

Seasons greetings friend,

Welcome to the new Porterhouse blog from all the staff here in Central.

It was great November in here, with a few really busy weekends. We had Movember nights at the beginning and end of the month, they were bit of craic and for a good cause - become a fan of our Facebook page to check out our 'Mo' photo album.

Last Thursday saw the first of the Christmas parties. They all look as though butter wouldn't melt when they arrive Suited and booted, Santa hats galore. It doesn't take long for the festive madness to take hold, swinging from the rafters, dancing like your embarrassing uncle. Well plenty more of that to come, a warm festive atmosphere, with our DJ's Chris and Simon knocking out rock, chart and all the Christmas party anthems. We are going late 7 nights for the rest of December, serving till 2.30am. There is still some limited availability for bookings, so give us a call (01-6797539).

This year for New Years Eve we will be taking bookings, this way you will have a table waiting for you at no cost, book early to get yours. We will be offering €2 off all cocktails all night and a €50 bottle of champagne or €25 bottle of cava, no cover charge.

Thanks for taking time out to read this, we hope to have more gossip for you in our next installment.

Yours Festively,

Porterhouse Central and all her crew.
