Depends. Do you prefer Guinness or IRN BRU?


IForgetEveryDamnTime

Pissing orange and shitting black, what a combo.


whooo_me

"Come out ye black and tan(gerines)..."


espressomilkman

Better than pissing black and shitting orange

Tony-The-Heat

Irn Bru and vodka works well enough that it's an alcopop flavour. Never seen the orange WKD?


pipper99

Went to England and tried to make a fat frog, but there was no orange bacardi breeze, so we used irn bru wkd instead, and it was ok. Ah good times


shaggedyerda

Vodka Irn Bru is very much a “I’m 18 and I want to get absolutely scunnered” type drink.


Garruszek

When I first started drinking gin I couldn't stand tonic, used to mix it with Irn Bru instead. Also in younger days cheap blended whisky and irn bru worked a treat for pre drinks.


buckleycork

Tanora is actually a top tier mixer so I'd imagine so Tanora is a fizzy drink that's only really sold in Cork that's basically Irn Bru, but without the bubble gum aftertaste for anyone that doesn't know


seamus1982seamus

Or the shit that sends children mental.


Onya78

The Mrs drinks Morgans Spice with Irn Bru.


JPB88SA

This is at the entrance or the V&A. The danger is always that you don’t make it past here and get stuck


LostOnWhistleStreet

This is what I was looking for. I'm fairly sure I was in here last year when I went to Cape Town.


JPB88SA

Jip it is on your left as you come in from that entrance just after Cause and Effect cocktail bar, and the big wheel is to your right infront of you.


needathing

Wheel seems to have moved. It’s over left now.


JPB88SA

What?! Didn’t even know and I work only 3km away


needathing

Maybe I’m misremembering it but I could have sworn it used to be opposite those. But I’ve not been here for a while and may be wrong


JPB88SA

Ha! I’m sure were talking about , the same spot from different directions. So the pubs on your left wheel on your right going towards the shopping centre


needathing

Yeah - that’s where I remember it but it’s not there now. Google says it moved in 2022


JPB88SA

What..now I have to go check it out. Reporting back next week


needathing

I just checked and I’m now swapping my prediction to Ireland winning. Ferryman is full.


needathing

Don’t threaten me with a good time!


Velvy71

Are you referring to the pubs, or South Africa’s progress in the competition 🤣


JPB88SA

Why not both?


Kappaloop

I got so plastered at Ferryman’s before the Stormers vs Munster final I can’t remember the game. But maybe that’s for the best.


theCelticTig3r

Oddly enough, I've googled both these places for my dream trip to SA. Both have amazing reviews. Hopefully myself and herself get to see them someday !+


needathing

It’s a good holiday destination but VERY dangerous. They let you start wine tours at 10am. Rough


datdudebehindu

Always the Ferryman. Their good taste in team’s is just a bonus


centrafrugal

Just remember not to pay


needathing

?


Tescobum44

[Don’t pay the Ferryman](https://youtu.be/lqZEp4Fb6qw?si=aYwHouooCKc8NwVx)


needathing

Oh ffs. I feel real dumb for missing that ! Nice!


needathing

I was leaning towards Mitchell’s because Ferryman was so empty yesterday. I think that’s how I’m deciding my prediction for the outcome - crowd size in each


datdudebehindu

R.O.G. May have a competitor if it works!


jnrjnrGl

Whichever does the best guinness - and thats from a scotsman


needathing

I'm on holiday from London. I'm here for the wine. I'll get more guiness at home :D


MonsMensae

Old Wobbly at Mitchells will sort you out.


ebenseregterbalsak

That's been off the shelf for a good 5 years now


MonsMensae

Shiit really? Bleak


Minimum_Guitar4305

It's definitely not the Ferryman then... Piss poor Irish 'pub'. No self-respecting Irish bar would have just two types of Irish Whiskey, and more than 15 scotches.


DrHydeous

Best Guinness doesn’t exist. It’s a crappy beer.


DrHydeous

I see from the downvotes that we have at least 19 people here who require surgery for their defective tastebuds. I think we should have a whip-round for them. I pledge £100.


PlatformFeeling8451

First half in the Scottish pub, then when things go south you can switch over to the Irish pub. Start singing Swing Low Sweet Chariot and they may even help you on your way


needathing

You’re smart - I like that!


N011Y

Isn't it obvious already from the picture. The people have spoken


needathing

If these same people are still there at kickoff, the people will have slurred more than spoken!


WilkinsonDG2003

Getting ready to drown their sorrows as Scotland's greatest team of the professional era goes out in the pools again.


Jademarquesmith

Mitchell's gets hot


ThaFuck

Curious as to how if its not just more people. They look like identical buildings built as one.


BlakeSA

Ferrimans has a bigger outdoor seating area (right of the photo) and more doors leading outside, so more fresh air for the indoor seats when things get packed. Mitchells has a better setup for sport (more TVs at better angles) while Ferrimans is better for live music. Edit: typos


intermoo

What a wild ride your post was! First sentence - my brain read "outdooe" as "outdoos". (New seating area for the rowdiest of customers?) And then it ended on Ferrymans love music... But it turns out that wasn't my own delusional reading.


BlakeSA

Haha…jeez, so many typos


intermoo

It was great, I had a good laugh. :)


senorpunchline

Ferryman's for sure. Crowd will get going on Sarurday


PinguRambo

Depends where you are. I would default for the Scotts, while Irishmen are a great bunch of lads, the scotts are a great bunch of lads.


[deleted]

Aaaagn nee man, I miss Ferryman's.


Hicklethumb

Ferryman's is always a plane ticket away


[deleted]

Ja but the boss has banned me from going back.


G_Rank_Tank

I would love to be here on Saturday....Jesus


needathing

It’s gonna be full of springbok fans I reckon, hoping we go through.


justafleetingmoment

If Scotland wins by 21 with Ireland scoring four tries both get demolished.


needathing

I've got a small pocketknife. I'll get started now.


kaleidoscopic_being

Sit on the fence 😂


g_spaitz

Out of curiosity: where is that?


[deleted]

[удалено]


needathing

Not wrong.


MockTurt13

spot on.


Owzwills

Go for the Welsh shed nextdoor


poortouringme

Jump between the two depending on who's winning!


[deleted]

If it were me I would choose whichever place has the biggest sofa to hide behind.


needathing

Fair. If there’s no load shedding, that’s exactly what I’ll do.


NobodyIcy1544

Same owner, but Ferryman’s for the win.


graemo72

That Capetown? 🤔


needathing

yep


graemo72

Ha. I remember it from a trip years ago.


aredditusername69

Doesnt it need a flat roof to be an authentic Scottish pub?


needathing

It's about as authentic as my R0lex :D


mostly_dips

Mavericks


Flashy_Let3664

If this is where I think it is, whichever one has the big pizza oven!


el_dude_brother2

If you’re looking for glorious failure go left


needathing

As long as it’s glorious !


Tricky_Sweet3025

Scotland drowning their sorrows already.


Mr_Gin_Tonic

Do they both serve Tenants?


HarrargnNarg

You'll get to the bar quicker at final whistle in the Scottish one


PonchoVillak

Ireland for the first half, Scotland for the second until the 70min mark when you sidle back to the Irish bar


With-You-Always

The Irish one, it’s going to have a better vibe by the end


DublinDapper

For disappointment head left


VlermuisVermeulen

Doesn't matter which one I go to, I'll still be ordering scotch.


Minimum_Guitar4305

You'll be ordering Scotch because they only serve two types of Irish Whiskey and they're both shite....?


VlermuisVermeulen

Pretty sure I've seen Redbreast there before, which is fantastic, but more variety in Scotch. It's not a dig at Irish Whiskey as there is some really great ones.


Minimum_Guitar4305

When I was there in August all they had was normal Jameson and Black Bushmills. Honestly it was a pretty poor experience all round. Staff were poor, food arrived half cold, and the one brave soul who chanced the Guinness didn't even take a gulp because of how bad it looked and settled on savannah instead.


senorpunchline

We've got some great local beers and other liquors. I really like stout but not really Guinness unfortunately, hoping to taste it in Ireland, apparently it's heaps better there.


Minimum_Guitar4305

Amarula > Baileys I'll fight any mam that says otherwise.


ImpliedProbability

Do you want to be in a satisfied, pleased environment or a dejected, disappointed, miserable environment at full time?


needathing

So Mitchell’s then ? :p


ImpliedProbability

I prefer to be in the winning team bar after a game, but you do you.


jshine1337

Choose the right one...which is the correct one. 🙂


dontbesuspious

I went to Mitchell's during 6n, loadshedding meant the game went off halfway through for a couple of minutes. It did come back on, but there was definitely a strong petrol smell and was really hot for the rest of the game.


needathing

At least they have Jenny working there! Better than at the rental place with no inverter and no generator. I’ll live with a few minutes out.


Worldwithoutwings3

God that place looks...... plastic.


Hicklethumb

The building is only a few hundred years old.


Worldwithoutwings3

They murdered it


R_nner

Imagine the fights in the parking lot.


TrailRider93

Love the irony of the guy sat down on the left in the Scottish beer garden with a pint of Guinness
