We we referred by a local here and it didn't disappoint. Classic old school bar and restaurant vibe with a bunch of locals inside. We ordered a ham and cheese melt, chicken with mozzarella wrap (more like a chicken and cheese quesadilla for Americans), with chips. Service was polite and friendly, food aplenty and all was delicious. read more

Treacy's Bar and Restaurant - Chicken mozzarella wrap, chips, and a ham and cheese melt - Pubs Near Me - Portlaoise, LS

See all

Service and atmosphere were nice but the food was just ok. I ordered the cheesesteak, but the bun was dry and there wasn't enough cheese. The Cole slaw had too much mayo for my liking. read more

Slow service and the food was not good. We came in as we have been driving all day and found a place that was open. They took over an hour to serve food that should have taken 30 minutes, after waiting the hour I figured they may have forgotten out food. Not an enjoyable experience read more

Loved this place, stopped by last trip to Ireland for a pint ( excellent BTW) tried the food this time and loved it

Very unique spot in the middle of nowhere. We sat at the bar and had the best crab claws I'll ever have in my life. Also offers sit down on the other side. Great for an app and a drink. read more

This place serves the most authentic food my family has ever had and the service is like being in your own home. It is a must if you visit Ireland to get the true Irish experience visit Treacy's and the Portlaoise area! The staff was attentive and truly caring focused on quality and the satisfaction of its patrons. I can see why they have been serving locals and visitors alike for well over 200 years. Of course after a heart meal, try the decadent desserts the sticky toffee cake, bread pudding, and warm apple pie as they are must haves! read more

I have been meaning to review Treacy's since I visited there in June 2015. Fortunately, the memory of the food, service, and decor have stayed with me. The layout: it wasn't immediately clear to us based on earlier reviews what the layout at Treacy's is. The left-hand side is a restaurant with a small bar and the right is a tight, cool, bar. You can get into either from the outside or from inside. The food: the food is local, simple and delicious. We went for dinner and then breakfast the next morning. My meal was a tender, buttery, local ribeye. It came with steamed vegetables and mashed potatoes--it was prepared with care. Quite good, especially with a few pints. The dessert was also amazing: a custard bread pudding. And just a little bit sweet--a great complement to the meal. The breakfast the next morning was just as good--eggs, bacon, black pudding, grilled tomatoes, tea. The bar next door: a small space with a small bar. There was room for maybe 25 people, and the crowdedness added to the ambiance. Locals were happy to initiate conversation, and the genuineness of the place made me want to come back. We took a walk through the bar after breakfast the next morning to take it in one more time. If I recall correctly, some of the wood in the bar dates back to the 1700s. Overall: legitimately great. Give this place a visit, you won't regret it. read more

Family owned pub that's passed down through the generations. Beautiful thatched roof and old school decor inside for traditional pub feel. Known for it's beef, we gave the sirloin steak, steak burger and a couple of beef burgers a go. The hamburgers looked great and were quite tasty. The steak burger was ok, bit of fat on the meet, served with whole mushrooms making it a bit hard to eat as a burger. Came with a serve of onion rings which were delicious. The sirloin steak we ordered with a whiskey sauce which was moorish, definitely give that a good. Very tasty coffee as well! Would definitely pop by here again. read more

Great food and warm and friendly staff, I enjoyed the ribs and wings plate and of course the warm apple pie with ice cream! We really enjoyed the hospitality and people of Ireland. read more

In the Irish countryside, midway between Dublin and Tipperary. Genuine pub on one side and separate dining room with bar. Treacy's make excursions to Dublin for fresh seafood. The fish and chips was excellent. Sevice friendly and attentive. A good choice for travelers or those looking for a place to meet between Dublin and Tipperary or Cork. Enjoy! read more

Nice truck stop/pub with lovely, friendly staff. They make you feel right at home! There are a few craft beers on tap and the staff will give you a few tastings before you choose one. We were able to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine. The food is average. It reminded me of cafeteria or canteen quality. I had the salmon with potatoes which came with a few sliced cherry tomatoes and spring onions. Slightly odd mixture of flavours that didn't really go together that well. Mixed Grill was essentially an Full Irish Breakfast but with a pork chop. The patty on a burger came burnt. All that to say, we still enjoyed our visit despite hiccups with the food! read more

Good food and friendly service always. Nice selection on menu and good portion sizes. Nice family owned restaurant and pub read more

Stopped here on the drive back from ennis to Dublin. A great selection of craft beers, lovely food and friendly service. Ireland needs more places like this. Will definitely come again. Highly recommended. read more

Great adorable restaurant. Driving from Dublin to Cork and stopped here for lunch. I ordered the club sandwich and my husband ordered the fish and chips. Both were amazing. Staff was great, atmospheric great, and the food delish. read more

The staff were very friendly however the food was inedible. I ordered chicken and mushroom with smoky bacon sauce and my partner order the turkey and stuffing, both come with "fresh garden veg". The potatoes were like cardboard, the broccoli and turnip had been over cooked by a few hours and no matter how much you chewed the meat it was impossible to swallow. Also the sauce was chef bbq sauce warmed and poured over chicken. Disgusting. There was also a very strong bad smell. read more
