Rui Teixeira
Dublin after dark, one last round at a time
Based in Dublin, Ireland.
Rui has poured pints and worked door lists across Dublin's north inner city since moving from Porto in 2015, and he now maps stag and hen circuits that start in Temple Bar and end somewhere the locals actually drink. He keeps a running note of which Harcourt Street clubs stay open past 2am and which Liberties taprooms will take a group of fourteen without a phone call ahead.
