We were staying next door and this restaurant was recommended to us. The decor is lovely. The staff are very friendly. They do need to be a little more attentive as on a few occasions we had to ask again for something as they had forgotten it. All in all a great meal
I had eaten there previously on a golf trip, which was excellent. We were on vacation when we visited. We did make a reservation. The restaurant was not crowded but we were given a table next to the kitchen door. We weren’t told specials as we other tables were. Food was OK as was service. I sensed it was because we were from the US.
We were recently in Vaughans for a family dinner during a family break in Clare - 8 people over 3 generations - it’s not our 1st time here ! We came back for more having had a super meal here a couple of years ago - the menu is predominantly fish .. but steak on the menu too. We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 courses - the scallops were delicious and the monkfish, halibut & steak deserve a special mention too. All delicious - Spoonies Icecream on the desert menu with yuzu caramel was a firm favourite- service was very efficient but not the friendliest waiter - a smile here or there would not have went a stray ! But that is our only criticism. We thoroughly enjoyed & highly recommend this spot for dinner.
08/09/2025: A genuine Irish pub that's very popular with locals, so it's not too touristy. We had a delicious meal (one curry, one bangers and mesh). The service was super friendly!
08/09/2025: Absolutely amazing experience! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The food was delicious and truly exceeded expectations — fresh, hearty, and full of flavor. The atmosphere was everything you hope for in an Irish countryside pub: cozy, welcoming, and full of character. But what impressed us the most was the kindness and genuine warmth of the staff — the level of hospitality was simply outstanding.
Highly recommend to anyone visiting the area — a true gem!
