I wasted 5 minutes of my life looking for the entrance to that stupid pub, and because the comments here have been VERY unhel,pful, I have decided to write my own guide:

1. GO TO STORMWIND.
2. GO TO THE DEEPRUN TRAM ENTRANCE.
3. ENTER THE INSTANCE (DEEPRUN TRAM)
4. ONCE INSIDE THE INSTANCE, MAKE YOUR WAY TO THE GNOME NPC NIPSY. (HE IS IN THE MIDDLE PLATFORM)
5. ONCE THERE, GO LEFT TO THE LEFT EDGE OF THE PLATFORM. YOU WILL NOTE A RED LIGHT ON YOUR FEET IF YOU DID IT RIGHT.
6. JUMP DOWN.
7. ENTER THE CAVE. (BIZMO'S BRAWLPUB).

I wasted 30 minutes trying to figure out how to do this.
So here comes a summary once you have taken the quest.

1. Go to Domination Point /way 12.58 59.51
2. Kill horde guards and rare's untill you have 5 ''Domination Point Commission''.
3. Go back to Lion's Landing in the east.
4. Buy the ''Portal Reagents: Stormwind'' from ''Proveditor Grantley'' /way #418 89.6 33.4 Proveditor Grantley
5. Use the item and a portal to Stormwind will open next to ''Seamus Goldenkicks''
6. Take the portal and head to the tram, once entered there will be a red light in the first tram tracks. Head down that ''hole''.
7. Once down you will find ''Barkeep Townsley'' at the bar, talk to her and you should be all done.

Hope this help someone.

Description

We're going to need help if we hope to figure out Garrosh's plans for Pandaria. I have someone specific in mind, but he will not be easy to convince. Agent Connelly considers himself retired, but one does not simply leave the SI: 7. We've had an undercover agent following his every move for months. Currently, he is disguising himself as a high roller at Bizmo's Brawlpub. Something about settling an old debt. Meet with our undercover agent in the Brawler's Guild.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

    King Varian needs decisive adventurers to help him resolve a showdown between Tyrande Whisperwind and a detachment of Horde warriors holed up in the Temple of the Red Crane. Report to him immediately!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To Catch A SpyLevel 15-35

    Now, I could tell you who Connelly is, but that would be too easy! To catch a spy you have to think like a spy. You have to pass the test first! The small things can say a lot about a person. It's all in the details. I'm going to give you a drink to deliver.
