Griffin's Bar in Clifden

A must visit in Clifden. The food is brilliant - fresh local mussels and seafood chowder are a must try. Family run pub for years. You won’t regret going.

10/10. We had the good fortune to discover the wonderful Griffin's Bar during our short stay in Clifden. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. However, the highlight was the thoroughly friendly, engaging and welcoming bar staff we met there. We recommend the bar in the highest terms and have every intention of returning. The other bars in Clifden have a lot to live up to.

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!
