We always meant to stop in here when it was under the previous ownership but we never made it so I can't really comment on the changes. I can say that this a great little pub if you like pub grub, great service, and fantastic live music in a small space. We were going to just stop in for a pint, however, we saw and smelled some great food coming out of the kitchen so we ordered off the small menu. The fish and chips were lovely. The batter was nice and crispy and the fish was flavorful and not mish-mush. My husband had the Reuben with a side of the colcannon. Heaven! Yes it is simple food, but it is done very very well. Then we were lucky enough to be there when Sean McClorey started his set for the night. I love the fact that he played a wee bit of traditional Irish songs, but also played songs by Irish artists I wouldn't hear anywhere else. We will be back to try to the lamb stew and the cod cakes!
