This local institution is a great family pub with a lovely beer garden set beside the tiny Coomnahorna River, serving quality pub fare like deep-fried monkfish and rib-eye steak. On Thursday evenings from 9.30pm and most weekends from June to August, locals and visitors crowd inside, and music sessions strike up.
