As the only pub now in Ashford, it attracts everyone and they are very nice and friendly to everyone. It once had a rough reputation but that is certainly not the case anymore. It is the kind of place everyone is welcome and made to feel comfortable but not pretentious and can be said a real Ashford pub. Very worth the visit.

It boasts being recognized in the top 100 restaurants by the New York Sunday Times and is in the Michelin guide. Quite possibly one of the most cozy, welcoming places one could find off the beaten path in Ireland. Gorgeous, old-world interior with wood stoves and fireplaces in every room, deep padded armchairs you can lose yourself in. Sink into one of these, accompanied by an excellent cup of tea, crusty buttery croissant with fresh made grass-fed cow cream and admire tons of fun little Tchotchkes and handmade crafts, many of which are for sale. Attentive and smiley staff to boot. A pleasant repaste for a lazy weekend morning!

I came in thirsting wildly for a Guinness, but when I saw him meticulously preparing a Whiskey Sour with his own special touches, I pivoted to that. Just like my wife's "White Linen", we could not have been happier with our cocktails! Also, it just so happened that Wednesdays are "Pizza Night" so we went to the pizzeria/mini grocer connected to The Coach House and ordered our fresh, delicious, pizzas that were delivered to us back at the bar. The Coach House has several different eating rooms, each with its own look and feel. We were very comfortable just eating at the bar and picking Roan's brain for his secret cocktail recipes!!

The dark wood table tops and cast iron bases just make me feel grounded. One of the hosts asked if I had a reservation, and I was almost sad because I didn't expect it. She was kind enough to seat me anyway. I don't know her name, but she was lovely, golden hair, and bright green glasses! I was served by Avinash, who had a warm demeanor. My phone was about 20% and he kindly let me charge it; hence why I do not have any photos of the meal :) at the end of the meal, when I asked for an espresso, Avi came back with my phone as well-- a nice touch of remembrance. I had the slow cooked lamb leg, with potatoes, carrots, and rosemary stuffing with a balsamic mint sauce. It was divine. It was my first meal of the day, and I savored every last bite. The atmosphere was just what I needed. 5/5 would return. And did yall know they got first editions of Bam Stoker, Oscar Wilde, and James Joyce??? Sheeesh.

This was a sizable restaurant with an large outdoor seating area. Inside was nicely decorated and busy. I ordered the Seafood chowder that was thick, hot and with nice spice. After two mouthfuls the Corned Beef Rueben came out which made for a difficult decision to eat what first. The corned beef Rueben was ok, not as good as The Temple bar, too dry and a far 10th to my own juicy corned beef. While waiting for the check, I headed to the head to wash up and upon arrival back, my remaining beer was gone and table cleared as they thought I left. I Paid the bill and on my way. Place seems like a great place To hang outside during warmer weather although it seemed the staff was short handed.

The whole restaurant and bar is beautiful with wood and leather decor, very warm and charming. Our food was, on the whole, delicious. We were lucky to sit both times at a corner booth with spectacular views of the river. Service was a bit slow, but that didn't bother us. I asked for my toddler's dinner first and they brought it within minutes. The rooms were also great. Not fancy, per se, but charming and cozy. The in-room radiators are adjustable and worked great. They had a cot (crib) set up for us in the room when we arrived. Both rooms overlooked the quaint street. It is a bit noisy until the bar closes at midnight, but it's a tavern after all. It really didn't bother us and everyone (toddler included) slept great. I'm so glad we weren't dissuaded by the other reviews for this place. We really loved our stay here! My parents are still raving about it. I would recommend it to anyone.

This was going to be my first Irish meal of the trip so of course I wanted something that was more traditional Irish food! The group ordered: - beef stew x2 - Cottage Pie x2 - Irish Coffees x2 - Vegetable Soup of the Day I personally got the cottage pie and it was delicious! Large order of food I thought, with pie, fries, and a salad! My mom got the soup and didn't like it that much, she loved my cottage pie though and kept stealing bites of it. The soup was more a puree, and I personally was not a fan of it either. The others loved the stew and our tour guide was a fan of the cottage pie as well! Overall, I enjoyed my lunch here!

The tour company must have a deal with Fitzgerald's as he called when we were 20 mins out and they were ready for us. Greeted us with a tray full of Irish Whiskey and Baileys for everyone. The menu is all traditional Irish food and was really good. My wife got the vegetable soup & Bulmers cider, and I got bangers and mash along with a pint of Guinness. It was really good and the locals that hang out there were all very friendly and came over to talk with everyone from our group once we finished eating. I asked the one local how many people lived in this tiny village and he said, "Not sure how many in the town, but there are 27 people and 3 dogs on this street". It was so awesome and felt like going back 100 years in time.

Fish very bland. Chips always need salt but that was provided, luckily. Way too little ketchup and our server didn't come back very soon so we never got more. Now the fish sandwich--again not much flavor. Very little tartar sauce on it. Lettuce and pickles were a nice touch. Bun was nothing. I think a McDonald's Fillet of fish sandwich is actually better. And a bit cheaper. Go for the drinks, not the food.

For dessert, I had an amazing brownie which was perfectly chewy and cakes and came with a side of ice cream and delicious whipped cream, which I'm sure was homemade. If you find yourself in Laragh, definitely give Lynham'a a try!
