Tourists have expressed their anger towards The Temple Bar in Dublin for charging exorbitant prices for a pint of beer, following the sharing of a receipt from the pub on Twitter. On August 22, a visitor to the popular tourist spot posted a photo of their receipt, which was later reposted by the Twitter account @pintsbeauty. The tweet sparked outrage among its 6,000 followers, with many voicing their disbelief at the inflated prices. The receipt, adorned with The Temple Bar’s well-known logo, showed a bill of €81.85 for seven items. Two pints of Guinness were priced at €8.95 each, while a pint of Heineken cost a staggering €9.95. Two vodka and tonic drinks came to €13.50 each, and two Jameson whisky and ginger mixers totaled €27. However, the bottom of the receipt clarified that the bill did not include service charges, but rather 23% VAT, live music, and a cover charge. Tourists and patrons took to the comments section of the tweet to express their shock and disappointment at the high prices. Some suggested that other nearby places offered cheaper alternatives. One user mentioned that their trip to Dublin left them with little money, while another called the prices “crazy” and suggested London as a cheaper option. Others criticized the pub as overpriced and overrated, and shared their experiences of finding cheaper drinks elsewhere. Despite the controversy surrounding The Temple Bar, there are alternative hidden Irish hotspots that offer a more affordable experience for those visiting Ireland. This guide highlights a Star Wars filming location and a land inhabited by wallabies that may be worth exploring.
