I've eaten here twice in the past month and could not fault the food or service. The chicken wings are delicious! Menu changes weekly (with a few favourites remaining constant) so always something new to try. The seafood paella on my last visit was great....Would highly recommend McHughsMore

I had a pint of Coast Road, lovely, they do have a good selection of craft beers from the Western Herd brewery. Food however is desperate. I had a bowl of Nachos at €14 yes that's right, €14 for tortilla chips and chilli beef. The...bowl was so small that I could hold the contents in the cavity of my teeth. I will never be back. I actually had to go straight up to Enzo's chipper for a portion of chips. Avoid if you are looking for good value because this is anything but. I suggested that €8 would be a proper price. Well overpriced.More

Fantastic food and great wine. A lovely selection of craft beers from their own local brewery and great for small plates. Can't wait for a return to sharing plates!! Really nice staff and everything is very laid-back, despite the 5 star gourmet food. (Tapas as...Gaeilge- Blaisín!!)More

Food was great...calamari, nachos, muscles and sweet potato fries. Lots of space between tables with hand sanitizer, one way system in and out and staff wearing masks. Will definitely be back.

I recently brought a hen party here and the staff couldn't have been more accommodating or nicer. The food was absolutely gorgeous and suited everyone. We had the place to ourselves (on a cold February afternoon) and the pub was so lovely and cosy. Definitely...one of the nicest pubs in Ennis. Thanks again guys!!More

Fantastic spot to catch up with friends or family cozy and relaxed atmosphere. With ambundace of choice on their own crafted local beers and signature cocktails made expertly and a delicious tapas menue your spoilt for choice. It is it's own unique experience and an...addition to the town's great nightlife. Highly recommend it to friends and family and those visiting the Town, staff like Meave and Lorraine are always accomadating and go above and beyond the call of duty. Never have I had any bad experience and why I can recommend with confidence knowing a good time will be had.More
