Copper Face Jacks

Known more commonly as "Coppers," this long time running club (over ten years) is nothing short of an institution. Sitauted in the Jackson court Hotel, This dingy, but lovable club is open late seven nights a week with d.j.s playing mainly chart music with some classic 80's and cock rock thrown in for good measure. Monday night seems to be the best night to go here, with student nurses, guards and teachers packing the wood paneled floors, ceilings and walls to the brim. Along with the afforementioned groups, Coppers plays host to a variety of lively characters-all of whom are unpretentious and appear up for anything. Enter only with a sense of humour and an open mind.

It is quite possibly the only club in Dublin where you are allowed to bring your drinks onto the dancefloor-a point that is not lost on the lounge staff who seem to spend most of the evening sweeping away shards of broken glass and spilt beer. But at 5Euro admission, crazy country folk and an enclosed smoking area, who cares?

I had one of thge worst experiences I ever had at Copperhead Jack.Myself and my partner weer resident at the Jackson Court Hotel,where free entrance to the night club was offered.We had been a a gig and on returning to hotel thought we'd pop into Copperhead Jack's for a night cap.
Over zealous bouncer told us we were too drunk and would allow us access,we did of course have a free drinks but we were neither rowdy or obviously drunk.We are respectable mid aged professionals and did'nt not fit into any profile which might raise concern.The more we pressed out case the more obstrictive and aggressive the bouncers became.We could not believe what was happening,we had never been refused entry to any club before.
Perhaps this was an ageist response or indeed because we both have northern accents.
