29/10/2025: We would eat in Toughers maybe once a month. My parents are regulars. The food is always delicious and well portioned. Served in a prompt and friendly manner. The staff are lovely. We eat in the bar area which has traditional pub charm in a warm environment. It hasn't been ruined by brash signs and multi tvs. Ample parking available. I highly recommend the burgers. Best in the area. I opted for loaded fries this time and was not disappointed. The beef dinner is a family favourite. Lovely pints of creamy Guinness too

23/10/2025: Got the Plur pizza. thought i was very good. love the wood fired oven.

15/09/2025: Very local place with great meal deals and an authentic vibe. The service was very helpful and patient with us and you get to choose your own ingredients for sandwiches, different cakes and a soup of the day. We’ve loved it and it’s perfect if you’re looking for a place to eat away from the usual tourist places.

18/12/2025: Food was very nice and the staff were friendly and attentive. Will certainly be back!

12/12/2025: Hi Vivian, Thank you for your response. I want to clarify the reason for my 1-star rating. My friends and I were denied entry by the door staff, who claimed we were drunk even though we were completely sober. This experience felt very disrespectful and, frankly, discriminatory. We were looking forward to visiting your bar, but the way we were treated at the door was unacceptable and disappointing. I hope you take this feedback seriously, as it reflects on the atmosphere and customer experience before people even enter the venue. I am open to returning in the future if the issue with the door staff is addressed, but I do not want my feedback dismissed. Thank you.

18/09/2025: I drunk a really good hot chocolate and I ate a delicious crunchy brownie. It's a nice place. I recommend.

09/07/2025: There was live jazz music! The atmosphere was super!

25/06/2025: Fletcher’s Bar is one of those places that just gets it right. It’s cosy, friendly, and full of character – a proper traditional pub that doesn’t try too hard, because it doesn’t need to. It’s dog friendly (always a win), and there’s a real laid-back vibe that makes you feel instantly welcome. The kind of spot where you can walk in on your own and end up chatting with someone at the bar like you’ve known them for years. Best of all? They serve Murphy’s – and not many places do these days. It’s poured perfectly and tastes just as it should. Just the place to take the dog after a walk, Fletcher’s ticks all the boxes. Can’t recommend it enough.

26/11/2025: Nice coffee,bit overpriced. Yesterday 25th November went to shoda for coffee still bit overpriced but was disgusted to see on the counter a plate of about 20 mini shopbought mince pies 2 for 3euro. A pack of 10 probably costs 3euro in Tesco or supervalue. Maybe at this time of year they should be free with your coffee.

16/11/2025: Service extremely slow and very disorganised! To see staff arguing amongst themselves in front of customers is not a good thing! I won't be back.

08/12/2025: Picked this place randomly the other day with some friends and we really enjoyed it

09/11/2025: We went here tonight for dinner, although the food was delicious and the drinks were lovely, the service was APPALLING. The manager, I’m assuming as didn’t wear a uniform like the others, had a serious attitude issue. She spoke to her staff in ways you wouldn’t talk to an animal. After finishing our meal, we had wanted dessert, it took us nearly half an hour for a server to come in our direction and we had to ask them to clear the table which was met with a disgusted look and an eye roll. We asked for the dessert menu but it never came and so we had to go to the desk and get our own and go looking for a server to order. When we asked for some food to take away as we couldn’t finish it, she came back to the table and practically dropped it and walked off without another word. So unprofessional and horrible service. I work in the service industry too and can understand if it was busy etc, but it was very quiet with little tables in and the attitude and hostility we received is inexcusable. Won’t be rushing back which is a shame because the food and drinks were genuinely delicious and fabulous quality. Maybe some customer service training is in order.

02/11/2025: Had a lovely evening here during the week, a fab spot for Italian cuisine, we loved it, will be back again at some point.

16/10/2025: Came here on a recommendation by the man at Equestrian World and it is a 10/10 recommendation. Delicious bread! Warm butter!! Server was boss lady in the best way!! Ordered the spaghetti arrabiata (medium) was delicious. Also had bianco and Neapolitan pizzas, both were raved about as well. Can't go wrong when needing something other than traditional Irish.

03/09/2025: Nice friendly pub with good atmosphere. Comfortable.

18/06/2025: Busy pub pre-match on a wet Saturday afternoon. Friendly service, lots of TV screens, lovely pints!

04/04/2025: Amazing place with great food! Do you know when it will reopen?

23/02/2025: Highly recommend! It was my first time eating Turkish food. I ordered the Doner Turkish wrap, Lamchuan, and a Turkish coffee. They were all so flavorful! The interior is stunning! The staff are so nice, and they looked very happy every time more people came in. I’ll definitely go there again! ❤️
