What a lovely place. Visiting the area staying in Naas. Took the 126 bus that stops in multiple stops as it makes its way toward Dublin Connolly. The pub opened at 12 noon but greeted an 5 til the top of the hour when zipped my head in for a look. Reading reviews prior to my visit, all 5 stars given are on point. This is a destination worth visiting for great food and in house brewed beer. Not much else around that I can see in Kill but nonetheless, this is worth the ride as the bus drops you less than a half block away.
There are no seats at the bar. Was hoping for that as I love chatting up the bartender to gain insight into the area and how the gastropub and brewery came about. Lots of seating and found a cozy spot to the side of the bar to set up my laptop and plan to do a little bit of work. They have a guest WiFi network if needed.
I had room for just one beer and selected the award winning Helles. On a 28 C day it hit the spot. There are a couple of seasonal beers on and as well as the standard formats. The brewery caught my attention after having a their juicy pale ale Elipssis at a pub in Naas.
There is a beautiful patio to sit outside and it’s covered but bright an airy. Problem is smokers inside like to step outside the door to have a smoke. I wish there would be a standard that smokers have to step away 10 meters from anywhere food is served. Allow the breeze to diffuse the second hand smoke.
Enjoy your visit to this gem in Kill, County Kildare Ireland.
First time here. And will 100% be back for more. Excellent service and beautiful food. I highly recommend the potato skin starter to share as a couple. Fantastic. Good sized carpark in the rear. Wpuld have preferred option of large bottle of sparkling water or from the splash instead of small bottles . But that just 1 small gripe
We stopped here for lunch in May 2026. And it was delightful. The interior was retro, elegant and relaxed. The portion was huge. I loved the goat cheese tart!
Amazing atmosphere, we seat outside on a Sunday afternoon (June). The staff was very attentive and courteous.
Lovely food.

We flew from Dublin Airport to Cork and landed there according to Google reviews. What a stroke of luck!
Absolutely lovely. Delicious food and very friendly staff. We can wholeheartedly recommend it!
Phenomenal place for a nice dinner. Food is excellent, both in quality and variety. They brew their own beer, which adds some novelty to the experience. Staff has always been friendly, helpful and accommodating.
This is probably one of the best places in the whole region. I couldn't recommend more.
