Which are the best bars in Dublin?

Which are the best bars in Dublin?

#
South city centre: 
Cafe en seine is one of the most spectacular cafe bars in Europe. This cosmopolitan bar located on Dawson Street is unique in terms of ambience and style. This is across from Eason on Dawson St near the side entance to Trinity. 

Dublin’s first and only southern hemisphere bar, located under the Stephens Green Shopping Centre, Down Under in Major Toms is a mecca of all things Australian, New Zealand and South African. This is in front of Dunne's Stores in Stephen's Green. 

North of the Liffey, right on the "board walk thing" near the river are these nice places: 
Pravda: a Russian decorated bar (across from Ha'penny Bridge) 
Zanzibar: an Easten-influenced trendy bar/cafe (on Ormond Quay) 
Voodoo: showcases live original bands (a bit out there on Arran Quay) 

If you aren't into crowded city centre pubs: 
Oil Can Harrys is on Mount St. (past Merrion Square) and has a student crowd during term time. It has great food and the staff are nice. 

Clubs in Dublin: 
They charge quite a hefty cover, esp. the ones in the city centre. 
1. Ri-Ra 
Dame Court (off Dame Street which is near Grafton Street) 
2.POD 
(near the head Garda station on Harcourt Street) 
3. Fireworks: used to be a fire station 
(on Tara Street near Trinity) 
4. Club M (not nice, but in the Temple Bar area, located in the Blomm's Hotel) 
5.Spy Bar is one of Dublin's hippest bars and is situated on South King Street in Powerscourt House.(off Grafton Street) 
6. Lillie’s Bordello, Adam Court, Grafton Street, is where visiting pop stars, actors and celebrities hang out for after-show parties. 

Out of Dublin: 
Johnnie Fox's Pub 
Glencullen 
Dublin Mountains 
Co. Dublin 
The highest pub in Dublin and a great place to go on a warm sunny day.

don't go to Temple Bar. You'll be disappointed. I like Doyle's but that's because I'm a student. Cafe en Seine would not be my scene at all.

Gravity Bar at the top of the Guinness Brewery. Enjoy the best brew at the location where it's made, great atmosphere, great view. Good tour... then go and enjoy a beer in the bar.

Depends what you like. If you like banging music, crowds, expensive drink and 'trendy' types, there are places like Cafe En Seine. 
If you like a real pub - no blaring TV screens or poncy types, Mulligan's or Hughes'. Hughes' also have live traditional music. 

Temple Bar is full of horrid 'trendy' bars.
