Muddy
Murphy's
offers
such
a
welcome
break
from
all
that
glass
and
concrete
in
this
overdeveloped
country.
Take
away
the
wiring,
the
television
sets,
color
the
staffs’
hair
red,
and
you
can
be
forgiven
for
thinking
you
just
traveled
back
in
time.
While
I
marveled
at
the
painstakingly
assembled
interior,
my
very
direct
irish
friend
had
to
say
with
a
smirk
“that’s
probably
not
real
wood
they
only
made
it
look
like
it..
some
irish
bars
with
proper
wooden
interiors
go
back
over
400
years.”
Fair
enough..
I
imagine
getting
fire
insurance
to
be
a
problem
with
all
that
authentic
wood.
In
the
end
we
both
agreed
that
‘proper’
wood
wouldn’t
last
five
years
in
this
climate.
The
important
thing
here
is
all
that
effort
worked.
My
visits
so
far
have
always
been
during
non
peak
hours
so
I’m
definitely
missing
out
on
the
loud
and
rowdy
atmosphere
I
envision
an
irish
pub
like
this
to
be
on
heavier
nights.
As
for
the
eating,
you
get
the
traditional
hearty
british
fare
that’s
nicely
cooked
and
portioned
well.
I
have
not
tried
everything
on
the
menu
but
enjoyed
those
I
did.
Country
food
does
feel
different
in
a
country
setting.
They
have
an
asian
menu
as
well
but
I’m
there
for
the
hobbit
experience
so
that’s
a
skip
for
me.
Pricewise,
$$
is
an
accurate
score
for
the
place..
it’s
orchard
area
after
all.
Service
was
passable..
for
me
a
little
too
lukewarm
for
an
irish
pub.
Some
alright,
some
looked
like
they've
had
three
consecutive
shifts.
At
times
it
felt
white-centric
and
it’s
not
thrilling
to
experience
but
it’s
a
syndrome
I’ve
grown
accustomed
to
at
many
a
place
especially
in
this
region
so
what
the
hell.
I
suggest
taking
a
peek
at
wala
wala’s
service
recipe
as
that
one’s
hard
to
beat.
Overall
the
place
oozes
character,
and
the
tremendous
effort
put
in
by
the
management
to
create
such
a
warm
and
inviting
atmosphere
deserves
good
appreciation.
So
go
on.
Walk
in
with
your
mates,
unfuss
yourselves,
get
yourselves
high
happy
and
heavy,
then
march
forth
merrily
towards
mount
doom
knowing
you’ll
be
reduced
to
ashes
a
happy
lot.
I
LIKE
IT.
