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.

- tpdublin35 contributionsJust back from a really fantastic afternoon and evening spent in the snug. Gillian, Michael and Dermot were so kind and helpful for any of the needs of the group. We had a hen party and had a wonderful area out in the beer garden to host our games. Later we had a room upstairs which was also fantastic. The cocktails were divine and the great live music went down great with the hens.Written 21 August 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- EiresunKildare, Ireland46 contributionsIn town for a couple of nights and popped in for a few pints. It is a small little bar, but nice atmosphere, and the Guinness was on the money. There was a band setting up so we did not stay around for that, just not my thing. Worth checking out if you are passing through.Written 19 February 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- 75GerryAthlone, Ireland53 contributionsBeen here a few times. Good atmosphere. Friendly staff.

- wyldwyll1Athlone, Ireland32 contributionsMartins is generally a quiet pub with a warm welcome and a great pint.
The cons.
Limited parking, its next to the busy road linking Athlone to the South (so keep kids close), and no food options (presently) aside from snack food
The Pros.
Recent extension to the pub internally but charm retained. Now warm and comfortable. A few quiet corners to conduct social business but can accommodate a good crowd and regularly does at weekends.
The real Pro...
Niall, now the publican for over a year, has reinstated this pub as the centre of local life. Once famous for a good Guinness, Niall has a warm welcome to locals and commuters alike. Good Guinness (and a wider range of drink options) again guaranteed.
Martins wont compete with Urban pubs for crowds, but, given its setting, it is more than the sum of its parts. Keep up the good work Niall.
Looking forward to many more visits.
A deserving 5 star Rural Watering hole.Written 30 September 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
