About

This gorgeous bar, with wood-paneled walls, has not been touched since the 1960s and is the first pub you will encounter if you arrive in Kilkenny by train. It is popular with locals and visitors alike, for its quiet and contemplative atmosphere. It reflects the general Kilkenny obsession with sport in general, with a series of hurleys hung prominently behind the long and ample wooden bar. Soup and sandwiches are available for weary train travelers daily, and middle-of- the-road acts entertain the mixed clientèle at weekends.
