It's popular and oftentimes there is a line to get a table. The staff does their best to seat guests as soon as possible. Note the closing time of 8pm is firm, so be sure to arrive before that. Staff is kind but due to the busyness of the restaurant, service can be scattered or slow, so remember, you're on vacation. Wine and beer available. Parking can be difficult in the area. Allow time to find parking, if you're driving.

I ended up stopping a server and they said they'd get back to me. Probably five minutes after that I did get a table. They have an upstairs and that space had plenty of tables. The service was quick up there. I ordered the fish and chips and the fish was huge! They were playing live music in the bar, which was super fun.

Walk around to the side of the building to enter*** This place was unique, decorated on every surface. Netting, shells, fishing floats all over the ceiling. Antiques all around, there was a trunk for a table in the area we sat at, then they opened a curtain to another room for overflow. We sat at a large table for our group that ventured over for the night. Great ambiance, I can't speak to the service because I didn't go up to the bar to order. We loved the live music and the experience we had with our friends that night.

Around since 900 CE this pub predates the modern era of my own country by nearly 1,000 years. So we decided the drive from Belfast was worth it. And it was. A fun pub full of history, travelers, and perfect pints. Do yourself a favor and make Sean's Bar a stop on your Ireland travels.

It's very touristy and tacky, but that's what you expect when you visit the place claiming to be…read morethe oldest pub in Ireland. There's no debate some component of it can be tracked back a millennia, but whether that's really the 900's or not, who knows. If you want to fight the crowds for the oldest pub in Ireland picture, it may be worth it, but the Guinness record plastered everywhere, and the busloads of folks stopping in for the same beer you did, may not be worth it. I went, I can say I had a beer there, no reason to go back. Athlone on the other hand, such a fun city if you can find a place to park and experience all the shops and things to do.

Pat, Una, and their staff were wonderful. We were fortunate to be there during the euros, so I was able to take in the matches (my wife was less enthusiastic about this part). If you want to experience the Irish Midlands this is the place to go; both my wife and I travel and we try and avoid the touristy areas, preferring instead to spend our time meeting new people, and this trip provided that. Being American, I seldom get to have a good talk about football, but Pat was happy to oblige here. He's also made sure that every time I see Archie Gray take the pitch I will think of Weirs.
