The seafood chowder was excellent - very rich in fish and full of flavour (maybe just slightly on the salty side, but still really enjoyable). The fish and chips were a standout: a huge portion, super fresh fish, perfectly cooked, with good sauce and plenty of chips.

On top of that, the atmosphere was lovely, especially with local artists performing, it made the whole experience feel lively and authentic.

Overall: great food, generous portions, and very good value for money. Would definitely come back.

Was over visiting family in Galway and my beautiful fiance booked two nights in Sligo as a treat . We called in at lunchtime and she had the vegetable soup and roll while I had one of the best pints of Guinness ever in Ireland and ive had a lot. Decided to call back in for tea/dinner at about 4pm . We started off with vegetable spring rolls followed by the roast beef for myself and the chicken burger for her! Wow the portions are massive the ingredients top draw and the taste is unbelievable, i mean this place is up there with anywhere ive been in UK and Ireland 🇮🇪. Staff are great .. attentive friendly and a good laugh. I do a lot of reviews and I don't lie I just tell it as it is and this place is the bomb. Treat yourself to a proper dining experience you will remember for a very long time.

First time here, we had Guiness, bacon and cheese burger and the fish and chips. Everything was delicious. Our server was spot on with our lunch choices.
