I can give local info re: Belfast - i.e. the pub mentioned above was
probably The Crown, which is actually owned by the National Trust,
but I don't really know Dublin too well

My first recommendation would be the Messrs. Maguire on Burgh Key is a
nice place - very *big* pub (it's on three levels) and serves pretty
good food. It reminds me a lot of the place opposite London Bridge tube
station where we had the MJD Meet.

The Oliver St. John Gogarty is a bit smaller, and I'm not sure about the
food, but it's a good place to hang out, drink and listen to Irish folk. 
Possibly a good idea to move there after Messrs. Maguire, because it
Maguire's gets bloody packed.

As a last resort, anywhere in Temple Bar is worth looking at.
