05/03/2026: Popped in for coffee and tea. One of our party is wheelchair bound, and we were helped by staff, and a lovely lady patron entering and exiting. Friendly Staff and Patrons too! Excellent service! Highly recommended.

01/02/2026: We stayed above the pub for one night. Very cosy room, clean reasonably priced. Little kitchen with a fridge and microwave. Milk in the fridge, tea and coffee. Would definitely recommend.

30/08/2025: Best food in town with great oldies disco (Karaoke) on a Friday night 😀✨️

01/01/2026: We were looking for a full Irish pub experience and this bar was a really good choice. Not too crowded but great atmosphere. The only downside was that there was no music in the background, other than that, very cozy and Irish-aesthetic pub!

02/10/2025: Very lovely people, welcoming, gave us some milk for our tea the next morning when we got in late at night. Highly recommend to anyone. Real Irish hospitality.

29/08/2025: I booked the fairy pig walk and planned to propose to my boyfriend as he really loves pigs. Mary was amazing and helped me organize everything. She sent me videos beforehand so that I knew where to go with him, let Emilia the pig deliver the ring to my boyfriend and took pictures and videos for us. We got to do the walk, meet all of the other animals and even got to meet the piglets. Marys and Roys kindness made this day special and we will always remember it with a smile. Thank you for everything!

26/08/2025: From the moment we entered, Mary made us feel so welcome and meet us on the car park. My daughter Emelia is obsessed with pigs so this was her dream come through. Emelia got to meet Emilia the pig. Emilia was very calm on the fairy walk and Mary has her well trained to stop for pictures and videos. We then went to meet Apollo the pig and learnt how to brush and act around the mini pigs. We then went into the mini pigs which were so friendly and loved a belly rub. We meet the other animals and fed them they were all so friendly. Thank you we had the best day ever , ten out of ten ❤️🐷🐽🥰

05/11/2025: On a rainy Tuesday in Oranmore, this was a lovely place to go for breakfast or a scone and coffee. Very clean and great service. Good food too of course!

27/10/2025: The food was really good but weird experience, I got made to feel bad when I said I have an intolerance to eggs and asked to have avocado with my salmon instead. I get that it messed with the usual price but most places are understandable when it comes to intolerances.

05/04/2026: Very good food and reasonable prices

09/01/2026: The food was delicious and portions were generous. We had the Roast Beef and the Duck and we'll definitely be back!! Also the chairs are really comfy 😃

12/09/2025: Excellent sandwiches and beautiful setting!

20/08/2025: Previous review a bit harsh , food was very nice , the brown bread was really lovely , the staff were welcoming and friendly , and when I might have made a wrong judgement I’ll always apologise, I also should have read the menu correctly , there is absolutely NO reason not to enjoy a lovely breakfast in a warm welcoming atmosphere, which we find is the norm from Mayo people , warm welcoming and DECENT , so for any hungry tourists or locals , pop in to Mc Hugh’s of Cong , they won’t disappoint C

10/05/2026: Fantastic place to stay! First hotel I have stayed at where you can get 3 beds in a room.

15/04/2026: Excellent meal at this restaurant recommended by our hotel: the food was delicious (lamb, beef, fish, they had it all), and the service was top-notch. The only slight drawback was that the atmosphere was perhaps a little too quiet. Very good value for money.

28/04/2026: Not sure if I'm reviewing the right business as we stayed elsewhere on the island but we ate a few meals here during our stay and honestly this is the best food you can get on the island!

19/04/2026: The cook was doing some magic in the kitchen.
