Met Éireann HQ still vibes with the look of an exterior shot from a 1970s BBC TV SciFi series. Now celebrated in the nearby street art. #MetÉireann #ModernIreland #Architecture #IrishArchitecture #AllYesterdaysTomorrows #Glasnevin #StreetArt #Dublin #Northside #Mastodaoine

@MarkMaguire Fond memories of passing it on the way to Tolka house (which sadly seems to have been redesigned for hipsters judging by the internet).

@mark My grand-uncles (or maybe just one of my grand-uncles?) used to own the place in the early ‘70s. My dad was manager when I was very young. A big chunk of my earliest childhood memories are of the pub - 😅 - which sounds like I’m a character in a Pogues’ song.

@MarkMaguire Very nice! Great pub. Great place to go as a student in DCU back in the day and be treated like a civilian! Lovely pints of Guinness brought to your table often.
