Award Text

         FOR BEING AN AUTHENTIC DUBLIN PUB      ‘A good puzzle would be to cross Dublin         without passing a pub’. Ulysses      James Joyce identified and described the    characteristic ambience of the Dublin pub  so successfully that the characters in Ulysses    may be fictional, but they are based on a    multitude of living beings, characters who     Joyce found in pubs just like this one.    This establishment remains an outstanding        example of the tradition which     Joyce immortalised in his works and is      an authentic Irish pub which retains         a genuineness of atmosphere,               friendliness and           presence of good company.            James Joyce (Signature)

Controversy & False Advertisement

Since the awards were distributed in 2000, surplus awards that were manufactured but not awarded to a specific establishment, commonly appear on the secondary market from various pub equipment suppliers. As such, the presence of a genuine plaque does not guarantee that the award was bestowed on the specific establishment. In some cases, establishments which were not yet open when the original awards were dispersed, have been known to display the award as if they had been an original recipient.
