Run by: Zara & Tom
UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP as of May 2018. Different vibe - cycle friendly rather than late night heavy metal. Zara has worked widely in the pub and catering business in Spain and Tom hails from the Dublin pub scene where they know a thing or two about hospitality. Food is home cooked and proving a great success. Everything on the menu costs less than a tenner and you can get change from a fiver for many of the dishes. Beds can be juggled to accommodate groups.
