I cannot believe how large this pub is inside! We stopped by after seeing it on a "Traditional Pubs…read moreof Ireland" poster, and because my grandfather's name was James Griffin. The atmosphere was perfect! It was early Sunday morning, and there were already a few locals inside having their morning beer and reading the newspaper. I did some exploring because it looks so small on the outside, but you get in, and it just keeps going and going. Looks like they get large crowds during the evenings, and even offer lots of live music and DJs. The bartender was friendly.

So when you pass thru Trim to see the Castle, call in to this gorgeous pub. When you walk in, it is old school classic pub with beautiful woodwork and bar. From there, you can go in the cozy fireplace room that feels and looks great and leads to another cozy area to meet and be with friends. If you like patios, you're at the right place! Step out back and find a covered & climate controlled patio that is huge! They have a large smoking patio area (you can't smoke inside in Ireland either). Thru the patio, you can see a big events room that you can host a reception, party, meeting, whatever. It's been a few months since my last visit, but I've heard they have a new beer garden too! Oh yes, the drinks...the Guinness is perfect. You can get almost any tasty beverage here from a nice bartender. The owner is hands-on and always working to keep this place top notch.

Stopped by here when passing through the town, for me, this really wasn't a place I'd find myself…read moreregularly going to if I lived nearby. There was a quite a few people in the lounge though the atmosphere, I dunno, I can't put my finger on it but it definitely wasn't welcoming, friendly or overly inviting. We sat on a high table to the back of the lounge but having people come in/out from the smoking area got super annoying, people constantly bumping off my back and with not as much as a sorry plus draft coming in meant this lounge was actually a little chilly so didn't make as a comfy cosy pub to chill out at The barman was a bit of a grump, my husband tried to banter with him about the football on the TV and he just grunted then shuffled away... Eh, awkward! Cheer up dude

They have carvery and sandwich bar, my husband had Lasagne and wasn't good, he couldn't even finish it, too much bullion in it and I had just a ham & cheese toast, my ones are better. ( so, don't go there for food, drinks only) They also have a beautiful beer garden, very colourful and flowery and loads of seats. Heard they have live music it's quite good. So, I do think this would be one of those good places to go for drinks with friends, probably a late bar.
