Great Pub, great music. The barman though was rude and obnoxious and kept referring to himself in…read morethe third person to other customers in the pub. When we went to order another drink he went from behind the bar and did not return for 10 minutes. When I asked him for another drink he said he'll be with us in a minute. He then went to the end of the bar were they have a snug area and started talking to people in there while I waited at the bar. We left shortly after. We would of loved to of stayed for longer, but we never felt so unwanted in a pub like that before. Shame cos it's a great pub. Won't be back in a hurry.

The absolute best pub on god's green earth. They have a carvery (buffet) lunch that is amazing,…read moreeverything is fresh, delicious, and expertly prepared. Way above and beyond the usual pub fare. The dinner menu is as just incredible & we enjoyed everything we had there. The pub has two bars, one in the main dining room & one in the back with pool tables & darts for the younger crowd. What can I say about the drinks? hey, it's Ireland they do it right. They have concerts & parties out in the parking lot and it can get pretty wild in a good way. The craic (fun) is 90 as they say in Ireland. Navan is about a half hour or so north of Dublin & if you ever get over there don't miss The Round O.

Now, the Round O is all grown up with a complete redecoration, a fancy (and relatively pricey) menu and an off license. Food was a-ok. I guess you can't go home again...

Tonight is our first night in Ireland, and we are staying at the Bothar B&B. Upon recommendation of…read morethe hostess, we walked here with the intent to have a pint with dinner. We were surprised to be offered a free pint since Guinness was having a promotion to sample their new lager. Yes, Guinness has a lager! I ordered the roast beef evening special, and for €11.50, couldn't beat it! The meat was a little dry and the gravy was scarce, but they included various greens and quick service. The environment is very relaxing, and we were welcomed even though we showed up near closing. Recommend for a good dinner for a weary tourist!!

Ordered the 10oz sirloin steak, came with mushrooms and onions, mashed potatoes and gravy, and fries in a separate bowl! It was amazing and I could barely finish it, had some help with my boyfriend haha. My plate came out to be €21.50. My boyfriend had the roast of the day, which was for today, roast beef! Came with bread crumbs, similar to stuffing, carrots, 3 servings of mashed potatoes, collared greens; his came out to €11.50 Service was great, and each server made sure we were doing well if we ever needed anything! Definitely family friendly and would highly suggest checking this place out!

Smyth's bar is a quirky bar with a long and narrow bar and lounge where loads of beer and other memorabilia adorn the various nooks and crannies. They pour a very creamy pint of Guinness, which only has a couple of yards to travel from their kegs to the lines. They also pour local craft beers, and have a very wide range available. But perhaps the best bit is the Beer Garden, it is the best kept secret of this pub (until now). It is an oasis in the middle of a bustling town. A perfect retreat on a sunny day. There is also pool and darts for those who love their traditional pub games. There is often musicians strumming away to add to the laid back vibe of the place. Are you the designated driver? Well lucky for you their is a very well stocked off licence there too for you to pick up some of your favourite drinks to enjoy at home. Sadly they don't take card payments, but there is a BOI Atm right next to the front door.
