Keanes Pub
Ballina
15/07/2025: Lovely traditional Irish pub. Doesn't seem extraordinary from the outside but there's a lovely, cosy atmosphere inside. There were several pensioners playing cards at the table beside us, which was lovely to see. Service was quick and friendly. I also really liked how all the spirits had clear, individual prices on the shelves... and the Guinness was top notch. Would highly recommend this pub to anyone visiting Ballina.

Harrisons
Ballina
18/09/2025: This is a very small bar with limited sitting. This is for locals only. The bartender was not friendly at all. She made us feel unwelcome that we were not locals. There are larger, friendlier pubs within minutes of this one.
14/05/2025: This is a proper Ballina pub, cosy, as pubs were when I was younger. Great Guinness, poured perfectly, not too cold.
Nice folks in there of an older outlook but engaging and friendly.
Derek and his wife are no nonsense decent people.

11/05/2026: Dead ☠️ ordered a hot dog but wasn’t told it was gonna be on ciabatta bread and drowned in mustard. Girlfriend only had a couple bites of the chicken burger and knew something wasn’t right and binned it she still got sick a couple hours later 🤮 the chips weren’t cooked well enough either. Burn the place down, again
03/01/2026: Absolutely delicious food staff are very nice too
