Really cool place to eat, right on the canal front between the River Shannon and The River Abbey. The scenery can’t be beat!

It does get crowded but if you can’t find a seat inside, there’s a ton of seating outside, and even across the street. If you are dining outside, you have to order and prepay inside, then they bring your food out to you.

We had the Fisherman’s Pie for €17.50 and the Classic Steak and Ale Pie for €15.00

The Classic Steak and Ale Pie was pretty much steak and gravy stuffed into a puffed pastry. It was good, but it was really just steak and gravy. It kind of reminded me of the Mexican carne guisada dish, but wrapped up in a French pastry instead of a tortilla. Kind of salty like carne guisada can be. It was a huge serving, and the pastry was soft and flaky. It came with plenty of French fries, and also a side of marrowfat peas (you’ll have to Google that one like I did to find out what it is - they were good though!).

The Fisherman’s Pie was ok. It was a mixture of haddock, cod, and smoked salmon, topped with parmesan mashed potatoes. The combination tasted a little on the fishy side and the smoked salmon seemed to add a heavy, salty, smoky taste to the dish. It included a decent side salad.

We ended the night with the creme brulee for €6.50

Draft beers are just a tad over €5. Not bad for a tourist area I guess.

Traditional Irish music started right at 5. It was a two piece band, consisting of an acoustic guitar player and a fiddle player. Occasionally, an Irish folk dancer would come out and dance a jig. All in all, it was a great experience.

The service was very friendly, but they didn’t check up on us very often, so I would rate it as average.
