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.

Dining room was spacious, chairs were comfortable, and very bright (in a pleasant way) lighting. Staff was friendly and they recommended specials of the day, and I ordered both the starter and the main specials. Starter: venison sausage with red cabbage and poitin jus. Sausage tasted great with vibrant flavor. Strong taste of venison meat was well-balanced by the sweet and sour red cabbage. Poitin jus also helping to offset the saltiness of sausages. Main: wild mallard (breast) with celeriac, wild mushrooms, and berries. A perfect dish to enjoy at night. I requested doneness to be a bit more than their usual medium (pink center), and the kitchen still managed to sear the duck breast to perfection, crispy skin with tender texture. Wild mallard breast packed a vigorous gamey flavor, not unlike the beef liver, but also had a lot of nuttiness. Wild mushrooms added forestry and wild outdoor vibe, while the berries and the jus helped offset the strong and lasting meaty flavor of the duck and cleanse the palate. Dessert: apple and honey crumble with vanilla ice cream. Slightly on the sweet side for me, but overall still a very satisfying way to wrap up the dinner. Strongly recommend this place to anyone visiting Cavan.

From the outset very friendly staff between the few minutes wait at the bar to being shown to out table once it came available. Very good decent and welcoming Cavan hospitality! I hear that they are approx a year in business and well one thing for sure is that they'll be plenty more years! I remember coming here when I was pretty young 15yrs ago on a few occasions and I always remembered the vintage look and feel of the place, they've managed to keep that in the old bar and my only pity is the extension at the back, not very old looking and doesn't tie in very well with the old part but overall I had a pleasant experience and would definitely recommend a trip to it! On the menu side there was quite a good range from kangaroo (yes I know!!), rabbit, steak, pasta, fish I could go on..there was everything from special occasion food to comfort food and at a reasonable price! If you're down this neck of the woods (N3) the whole way from Dublin id recommend giving it a try! If not least for the kangaroo..I'm intrigued as to what it tastes like!!

We were looking for a place to eat in this town as we were going to see Irish comedian Tommy…read moreTiernan in a nearby hotel so we chose this town centre pub. It's on Main Street, it is like an old church or castle keep inside with some wonderful wooden floors and on different levels with a few stairs to negotiate as you go in and around. While Its charming I'm not sure it's disabled friendly, particularly with the toilets two floors down. We were welcomed literally as we walked in the front door, given our choice of tables to sit at, we chose near a front window down 2 or 3 stairs and our drinks order taken with menus handed over and explained to us, all with panache. Now we thought that's the way to do it right. We both opted for their buttermilk southern fried chicken supreme, which came with wonderful chunky chips, my favourite tobacco onions and a robust lemon pepper mayonnaise. Essentially we had an upmarket lightly seasoned chicken breast burger & chips with heavily flavoured mayonnaise from a jar, but don't get me wrong, it was beautiful tasty food with every element cooked perfectly, and we enjoyed it very much. If you are going to use mayo from a jar it really needs to be well flavoured as it's only a vehicle for other flavours. Everything on the plate was delicious, and most importantly done with thought and done well - this is a confident cook. I asked for and got Colman's English mustard, the worlds greatest mustard bar none. Service was great, seating cosy, the pub filled up with dinner guests as we sat and my cappuccino was very good too. It was obvious from conversations that some were regulars, which is also a good sign. We wouldn't hesitate to return here. Finally being a bit of a food snob and I self admit to being a general pain in the derrière there's two things I'd add. This chef is so confident (and skilled) why not make mayo in-house; a rapeseed oil mayonnaise would be marvellous, and it may just have been my misfortune but my chicken burger was served with a knife through the top with the tobacco onions held on the top of the bread bun, but this made the handle of my knife oily. I had to wipe oil of the handle and my hands as I started to eat. This is minor and a nuisance but hey-ho first world problems.

The only downside is the service can be very slow probably because the staff are always rushed off their feet.I didn't remove a star for this though as the staff are always so nice and they almost always throw in a few extra side dishes and a drink on the house. I've eaten here both in and takeout many times and never have been disappointed.
