Griffin's Bar in Clifden

Tasty and fresh food Friendly and helpful people

Enjoyed two bowls of amazing soup and brown bread. The chowder was fantastic. Great friendly service in a nice pub atmosphere.

This was our 1st trip to Ireland, and Clifden was on our drive. As we were walking around, we took notice of the lunch menu and the food stood out - not your normal pub fair! We were surprised to find everything had a true chef's flair and delicious. The owner engaged us in conversation and guided us to a warm fire and funny jokes. Then some more locals popped in and joined us and it was a great Irish moment; everything you come to Ireland for!

On my first ever visit to Clifden which took place last week, we found ourselves popping into Griffin's bar for some lunch. I had the best fish pie I've had since I don't know when. Marion enjoyed a nice steak sandwich. Both David & John made us feel very welcome. Then a local 82year old mad entertained us with a quick dancing demo. Apparently he also recites poetry and you might even get a song out of him! It was a memorable experience and made all the better when David ran us up to see the Sky Road (if you get the chance to see it you'll understand why it's called the sky road.) I can't wait to visit Clifden and Griffin's bar again. Couldn't recommend it enough, thanks David & John.
