Description

Set in the Knocktopher countryside, this charming Irish pub serves generous, affordably priced classics — from perfect pints of Guinness to mixed grills, burgers, chips and soda bread — in a cozy, rustic room warmed by a fire and live Sunday music. Welcoming staff make it family-friendly and popular with holidaymakers and match-day crowds. Expect hearty portions and reliable flavor, though occasional noise, strong kitchen odors, inconsistent opening/phone info and basic restrooms temper the experience.

Charming Irish pub buzzing with energy after a big match. The food is priced between 10 and 16 euros. There was a lovely fire adding warmth to the atmosphere, making it the perfect spot to order a pint and relax. We enjoyed the burger and chips, as well as a dish that resembled a turkey club. The other patrons were incredibly friendly.

The restaurant was closed, and we didn’t find out until we drove 20 minutes to get there. They advertise as being open, but their phone number is disconnected. It was a complete waste of time.

I enjoyed a delicious lunch of soup, soda bread, and a perfect pint of Guinness. Thank you for your attentive service during our visits this week as we explored your beautiful countryside. Looking forward to seeing you again soon!

I wasn't too impressed with the restrooms and found the food to be average. The entire place had a strong food odor, and it was quite noisy. However, the staff was nice and helpful.
