    Great location!
    Nice funky spot for some informal food and beer. It offers a nice relaxed atmosphere with good views of the Shannon. Food was nice and service prompt. Staff were friendly and attentive. Nice craft beers. Prob need some signage outside stating the name of establishment and saying we are open for bis...as it looked very quiet at the main door but quiet busy inside....would recommend.

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.

Really enjoyed this bar/restaurant. We only stopped for a drink and nibbles. The waitress was so lovely and friendly and even though she was run off her feet she always had a smile on her face and ran around helping everyone. We had wings and chips and they were tasty. The variety of beers is impressive. Would recommend a visit.

A great selection of beers in an inviting but modern atmosphere

Slightly hidden away by the river, Dead Centre Brewing is a must find in Athlone. The selection is fantastic and the service is top tier. Our server Anna was knowledgeable and very helpful. I highly recommend a visit!

Poor Management
May 2021 • Friends
I was there with a group of friends and although my experience was positive I was shocked at the behaviour of the manager and the way he spoke to a group of young girls after they simply requested a replacement drink. I found it extremely unprofessional the way he handled the situation and spoke to the young ladies in-front of other customers.
