Was in kilkenny for an overnight break. Came across this pub with live music. Thankfully wasn't too packed, and sat in the booth and felt like it was a personal concert. Staff were friendly and welcoming.
Ross and Jim were playing music and singing, absolutely brilliant, took requests and had a laugh. Great night

My friend & I went when we traveled over to Ireland and it was so much fun! We actually were gonna leave because there were some guys there that wouldn't leave us alone but the nice bartenders and bouncer invited us to stay near them. True Irish gents. And we ended up closing the place down. 10/10 would recommend!

Had planned to go to a different restaurant but ended up here instead. Really wanted spare ribs. There were 2 stag/hen groups there but they were not loud. Plenty of empty tables ( Saturday afternoon so quite early ) Ordered the slow cooked pork belly ribs starters. Glad I didn’t order it as a main course as it was very fatty ( it is pork belly so that’s quite normal ). Not my kind of ribs. Main course was the sirloin steak and that just melted in my mouth. Very nice. Pepper sauce tasted homemade and was good. Washed it down with a nice cool Heineken 0%. Service was good, sometimes too quick with collecting the plates. I prefer to let the dinner settle, no hurry with clearing the table. Did not opt for a dessert.
