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.
