07/01/2025: Slightly away from the Carlow town center which is good. Nice place for friends to meet...no too loud music. Good service. Seems to attract nice clients which all helps to a fun peaceful evening out.

21/12/2024: Great pub, nice comfortable place with good atmosphere for having a good old chat with friends. No loud music (good). Staff are friendly and good. I didn't eat here so can't comment on that.

06/02/2025: Delicious sandwiches, great price-to-food ratio, friendly & welcoming.

17/03/2025: The food is nice but be prepared for a long wait unless your a local ! - The queuing & ordering system is ridiculous - We had to wait for about 40 mins for only 4 bags of chips, with locals coming in after us & ordering & collecting theirs ahead of us. - stupidly frustrating !

26/02/2025: Always fresh and good quality ingredients. Big portions and very good value. Friendly and professional staff. Highly recommend Jimmy's Takeaway in Bunclody.

12/12/2024: Mick and the staff are amazing, my favourite bar!!!

14/02/2025: The food is amazingly good with a good portion size. The staff is lovely and the atmosphere is relaxing. The decoration has a farmhouse style and the wall has artwork from local artists. The bathroom is also very clean. There is a car park nearby and only 2 min walk from an electric car charging point. If I ever pass by Tullow again I would definitely visit this place.

16/11/2024: Got a take away delivered. Food still hot and tasty 😋

25/03/2025: Attended a social dance in the ballroom. Lovely hotel & was impressed with the water being freely on tap & available to all dancers 💃

23/03/2025: We arrived yesterday for food in the restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing and delicious. The staff were very accommodating. My mam was 90 and they went above and beyond for us all. Absolutely fantastic service and we were only walk-ins. Would definitely recommend 👌 100% Mam is still talking about her day out. ❤️

09/03/2025: Absolutamente terrible establecimiento. Nos quedamos esperando a que nos sentaran a pesar de que solo estaba medio lleno y dos de las chicas que trabajaban allí se quedaron hablando y riendo en el bar. Cuando finalmente nos sentamos la chica se alejó inmediatamente sin preguntar si queríamos una copa mientras miraba el menú. Una chica diferente vino a tomar el pedido de bebidas y estaba tan desinteresada y grosera que decidimos irnos. No vamos a volver y vamos a disuadir a amigos y familiares de ir allí. Terrible atención al cliente y personal muy poco profesional.

26/01/2025: First time eating in Conway's food was excellent very nice staff

09/02/2025: Lovely place for a drink or accommodation

03/02/2025: Fab little find there were 15 of us altogether and this place accommodated us perfectly Matty is great to deal with nothing was too much trouble and he and the locals made us feel very welcome in the pub on the first night Accommodation was great just as described would definitely recommend And will definitely go again Centrally located between carlow and kilkenny Thanks Matty
