The best restaurants

29/11/2025: Mery is wonderful and gave us great service. The place is beautiful and well worth a visit. Highly recommended.

17/10/2025: Lovely pub, very clean, great friendly staff and lovely Guinness. Cheer

20/10/2024: Great traditional Irish Pub, good beer and company

29/10/2025: An institution! Always welcoming 🙏 😊 Those who know....know

14/09/2025: This was shaping up to be a great spot, but for some reason they got rid of the manager. It has been downhill since, he was the life blood of the place, great energy! Pity it's a nice spot, it was worth stopping in Monuntrath for, but not anymore.

06/05/2025: Fantastic food. Great value and really really tasty. Excellent service , loads of space and v clean. Will definitely be back 👍

02/11/2025: All food premade and reheated. The sausages looked microwaved and were not eaten.

29/09/2025: The location of this place is great. Unfortunately, the food is below average. The burgers we ordered were cold and quite plain. Honestly the worst burgers we've ever tried. It's a shame.

11/07/2025: Got the crumbed fish and it was absolutely delicious. Chip were lovely also. Just a pity so far away from home (Northern Ireland) or I would be here more often

17/11/2024: Very dissatisfied and disappointed as they always take the need to have a break like it’s an ice cream parlour why do you need breaks ?

12/10/2024: Very disappointed. I come to this area quite often & found this particular truck which I would have been a regular at HAD I NOT BEEN OVERCHARGED!! I ordered 4 small ice creams which were advertised for €3.50 each - which totals to €14 but the lady had the audacity to charge me €18.30.. I’ve seen some reviews about them doing this to other people, raging I didn’t look at the reviews beforehand as had my hands full & was in a hurry to get the family ice creams before heading to our destination. Won’t be coming here again anyway. You overcharged me €4.30 & lost out on a potentially regular customer which would have been worth more than €4.30!!

20/01/2026: A great place, plenty of vinyl and great coffee

08/01/2026: Very cold cafe, women serving seemed quite confused when I asked for a coffee. The dog was the best part despite cold humour. I wanted to take him with me.

17/06/2025: Hi there I have seen your question regarding The Venue and I just wanted to say that I have attended the concert of "The year that grunge broke " previously at the Venue in Athlone town . I attended the concert with friends on the night and the concert lasted two hours.
