pub on wheels

This Shebeen pub on wheels featured on The Late Late Show is the stuff of dreams

Late Late Show viewers were SOLD.

THERE WAS ONLY one thing that anyone could talk about on last night’s episode of The Late Late Show…

Yes, it was this portable Shebeen pub that set everyone’s tongues wagging.

So, what’s the deal?

The Shebeen bills itself as a “traditional pub on wheels” and is available for birthdays, weddings and pretty much whatever you want.

As the owner John Walsh explained, it was once a caravan bought for Electric Picnic and when he couldn’t rid of it, he decided to transform it into a mobile pub.

As you can see, it’s pretty cosy.

It also contains all the requisite features of the traditional Irish pub.

The pub is available for hire, though renting it for 24 hours will set you back a cool €750.

People were most definitely sold on it.

Some even wondered if it was a little much for a christening.

Though some people thought the pricing was decidedly Tiger-era.

What recession, etc.

There’s a Late Late Show-themed bar in New York and it’s way more hipster than you’d expect >
