    Its directly opposite the orange "Booze to Go" on the Summerhill side of Parnell St. It doesnt actually say Ice Bar anywhere but its in between two Chinese restaurants. Its definately one of my favourite places in Dublin at the moment. It might be an idea though to check if theres anything on though before you go. A few of my mates organise some great gigs there quite often and the music is fairly heavy jungle and dubstep, so if thats not your cup of tea, you might be better off going another night. Theres generally a cover charge on the door also if anything is happening. When theres no gigs though, the place can be quiet enough but theres a pretty decent dukebox there. Really nice, tolerant, barstaff, great smoking and rolling garden, and a really friendly atmosphere. Definately worth a visit. Oh, and they'll serve you cheap offo if youre nice to them as youre leaving.

    dont think theres any gigs on there tomorrow. Can remember what the sign says but theres a small door, with a short narrow hallway through to the pub. You'll prob see the little window watch for the off licence from outside.

    yeah, one of the places. Its normally organised by Kaboogie, and the lads have had some great Djs playing there in the last year (Aaron Spectre, the Tecknoist...) course other times Ive walked in there and theres been two blokes with spanish guitars and another guy beatboxing. You just never know...

    Was talking to the manager on last night and it turns out the place got trashed on Saturday night by some disgruntled scumbag. Hope you managed to avoid that Ruby!
