The best restaurants in Sligo

07/06/2024: Worst place I ever visited. Floors were soaking and the staff walking around with a wet mop just moving the wet around. And to top the night off, was man handled by the bouncers leaving me with bruised arms. Horrible place.

14/02/2024: Security here is a joke. Have they no standards of decency? I saw a lovely girl get basically harassed by these horrid looking tramps and their scrote boyfriend. Some little fire hydrant looking security guard with a bow tie just stood and watched with an amused smirk on his face. I knew Sligo didn't have the best reputation before we decided to have a night out here, but had no idea local businesses actually encourage degeneracy.

02/01/2024: Owners? / bartenders were very nice! Atmosphere was great, classic pub. Some music, although not the main attraction of the night as people weren't really listening. We joined the band nonetheless and had a great time! Classic drinks, no surprise there, a few non alcoholic options for beers (Heineken 0% and the likes). But crowded when trying for the bathroom.

20/11/2023: Absolutely the best pub experience I have had in Ireland. Miriam the bartender/owner is SO welcoming and immediately makes you feel like family. (which is nice because when a tourist walks into many pubs in Ireland you can feel a bit out of place or even unwanted but you will Not feel like that here). Plus the pub is very traditional & you get to experience that old Irish pub feel. My friend & I were taught how to pour our own pints of Guinness by a real expert who has been pouring frothy pints for many decades (Miriam). The lively atmosphere was great and we had wonderful conversations and entertainment! Live trad music changes from place to place throughout the week in Sligo. So it's best to find out from a local pub or shop where the trad music will be on certain nights (there is a weekly printout of the lineup). Hit up McLaughlin's when there is live music here and it will be a highlight (or THE highlight) of your trip to Ireland. The pub got packed out during the trad music. So best to get there a little early. BTW, it's cash only so run by the ATM first. Miriam was so sweet and friendly that she even came outside when we were leaving the pub and gave us all a hug. I seriously cannot say enough good things about her or her pub. Wish I was there right now!

19/09/2024: Pub just reopened, staff are great and it's a cosy lovely pub . Great location also and plenty parking if staying in a campervan could be great pint option for enniscrone area

20/11/2023: Best chipper in Ballymote, Tasty Pizza, yammy.

30/07/2024: Very quiet during time we visited .
