Grabbed a table first then went right to the bar to order. Two ciders, a seafood chowder, and fish and chips. Plenty of food for two people for lunch.

The ambiance is that of a quintessential Irish pub in one of the most beautiful places we've ever visited. Great times with even better people. Every local had a story to tell, especially after the drinks start flowing. The staff is where this place exceeds all expectations. The owner helped us feel at home, the bartender was awesome, and the wait staff were top-notch. We will always make it a point to visit Fanore whenever we're in Ireland just to see these lovely people. 5 stars isn't enough!

Pat Cohans is famous for the fight scene in the Oscar wining movie (1951) The Quite Man, staring John Wayne and Maureen O'hara. My wife who did all of the travel bookings is an old movie buff and put Cong on our travel itinerary. It was about 3:30 p.m. when we arrived in Cong after our morning visit to the Cliffs Of Moher. We had not eaten since breakfast and quickly made the short two block walk to Pat Cohans. We ordered the double burger with fries and a side order of onion rings. It was all good. Best onion rings I've had in a long, long time. The burgers were excellent. A few of you will pick up on this this statement, "where's the beef", well it was on our burgers. The beef patties were nice and thick. Great burgers! We had a nice late lunch, early dinner.

We happened to be here the first time on a Sunday, which is the evening when they have an open mic night of sorts - what a delight! There was a continuous stream of local fanfare and traditional Irish music playing for hours on end. We didn't want to leave after our meal so we stayed on in the lounge area up front next to the musicians to enjoy the scene up close and personal. The food was phenomenal - a bit on the pricey end but of the highest quality imaginable. We loved every bite from the soups to the salad, to the seafood. I'm so glad we were able to enjoy this restaurant a couple of times while we were staying in the area. It really is the best food around here! And the folks who work here and run the place were really friendly - Ireland is already one of the most hospitable places I've ever been to but this place really does well by its patrons, too!
