Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

There are lots of great fun bars in Althlone and this one can guarantee a good nights out, with a mix of live music and DJ , it always has a great atmosphere. Pool table at the back, and a great outdoor area on the street.

If you’re coming to Athlone or passing through, don’t miss this pub! It was by far my favorite pub in Ireland. It was the first place that felt like a true local feel. The owner, Tracy, along with the rest of the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. Not only that, but the locals in the bar were so fun to talk to and gave us plenty of recommendations for the rest of our Ireland travel.

Don’t miss this little gem!

This was a great find. If you want to go where the locals go then stop here. Very friendly staff and customers. Tracy pours a great pint and is wonderful for a chat. I was sorry to leave.

A friendly bar with great staff and friendly locals, great pints and better craic! Tracey the owner was very helpful and accommodating to our needs! A real taste of irish culture with plenty of stories told, nice change from the commercialised pubs! Pool table and jukebox within.

This pub is so local that when we went in, they were hosting a local golf society's prize giving ceremony. The place was busy with music and quite lively. The various prizes were handed out (congratulations to everyone who won something) and they continues partying. It was a fun visit.
