Can't fault the service at McCloskeys. Extremely efficient and friendly bar staff.
The food however was very disappointing. My partner ordered a full roast dinner but what he got was luke warm microwaved dinner. It looked like it was prepared the previous day. The vegetables were grey, the stuffing was obviously reheated several times as it was dry and hard not to mention a tiny portion. The meat was cold in parts and barely warm in others and the broccoli was raw. It was hugely disappointing and he couldn't finish it. I had the hake which I couldn't eat. Mine was also reheated and almost tasted like plastic. When we arrived the place it was early evening and was empty so it makes no sense that the food was so bad.
We had high hopes for McCloskeys as we loved the pub through the years. Hopefully they will see this review and endeavour to improve their food quality.

Visited the first time and will keep going back, great atmosphere, there is something for everyone, music, sports, outside heated seating area. Food was great, can especially recommend the chicken burger, one of the best. Very friendly bar staff and management

Today we stopped by for coffee and a quick lunch, the experience was wonderful. Clean, nice music, delicious coffee and food. I especially want to note the work of the waitress Mary (I hope I remembered her name correctly), she is incredible, great service, pleasant conversations and the most sincere smile. She improved our mood after a busy morning. A good place to relax

Amazing atmosphere! Beautiful space, excellent service, and super friendly staff.
Where else can you enjoy a glass of wine and an ice cream in a pub?
I loved it and I’ll definitely be back!

It’s only pub in the city that you can drink wine and have an ice cream at the same time. 6 stars
