The Old Punch Bowl
Booterstown, Dublin. Established in 1779, and in fairness looks as authentic as they come. Seems to do a good line in pub grub, though I didn't have any myself. There are bus loads of tourists herded through the place at regular intervals, for the Oirish pub experience. Tasty pints of Guinness to be had, and a nice beer garden with a telly. Not that beer gardens are much good to us at the minute...unless you like sitting in the rain.
