Pat, Una, and their staff were wonderful. We were fortunate to be there during the euros, so I was able to take in the matches (my wife was less enthusiastic about this part). If you want to experience the Irish Midlands this is the place to go; both my wife and I travel and we try and avoid the touristy areas, preferring instead to spend our time meeting new people, and this trip provided that. Being American, I seldom get to have a good talk about football, but Pat was happy to oblige here. He's also made sure that every time I see Archie Gray take the pitch I will think of Weirs.

There were a number of tempting sandwiches and mains but we ended up sharing the grilled chicken sandwich with Caesar dressing with a side of chips. We decided to share it which was smart in hindsight as it (along with the burgers and other items) were huge! Half a sandwich was the perfect lunch. The place got pretty busy so I think reservations are a good idea. Recommended

They have a good website with all their menus and great special offers listed but to be honest the site makes it look like what my friend described as an "old man" pub when it's very new, bright and clean but with the charm of an Irish pub. They do a good Early Bird up until 7pm with a main for €10, two course €15, and three course €20. I had a prawn sweet and sour which was more expensive than what I usually pay for Asian food but a huge portion and very tasty. It was also spicier than what I'm used to for sweet and sour but still tasty. My friends all also had Thai main courses and were impressed. The staff were very nice and welcoming (two of us were late arriving). It was recommended to me by two friends from Portlaoise as a local establishment and I can see why. They also had lots of free parking outside.

Since I am in Ireland I spent much time to find a real beer garden that makes me feel at home and that has a variety of imported beers.

We stayed in four different cities, and traveled to many more, had lunch or dinner in a variety of pubs, and most, if they had music, were playing 2000's American pop hit junk. Some of those other pubs did have live music schedules for later evening, but we were trying to get our pub experiences at lunch and then 6p-9p range each day so we could get to sleep for the next day's exploring. It's also really nice that this pub is along the water (the river through Kilkenny) and some of the seating overlooks it via window, including open windows if you like. The kitchen closes early here, even on Fridays; 8pm during our June 2026 visit, so plan around that if you are intending to get dinner. Food-wise: * Really enjoyed the beef stew; good price no complaints. * Margherita pizza is great * Caprese Salad is not expensive but pretty mediocre * Seafood Chowder was very good * Tortellini was fine for Ireland Take all the above in context with the overall Irish food scene, which is mostly average at best. These feelings are based on seven days of eating around the country, so when I'm saying the beef stew was really good, that's compared to the rest of Ireland where I had one I liked more and a few others that were not good at all. Drink pricing is on par with other tourist cities; not bad. As with most pubs, beer and liquor selection is limited outside of the extensive Irish Whiskey options. For example, two rums, one bourbon, beers were what we encountered everywhere and no deviation. Service was similar to the rest of Ireland; initial order taking and then you have to flag someone down for anything after that.

We got in and snagged a table in the perfect location. We started off with food. The fish and chips were amazing. The fish wasn't too breaded or oily. The piece of fish was huge! The fresh green onions and homemade tater sauce elevated the dish. We stayed at the pub until Irish music started, which was so good! Hearing the tin whistle, guitar, and beautiful Irish singing was such a treat. We enjoyed a handful of cocktails and Guinness! Very enjoyable night!
