    Haggis Springrolls
    Alexander H.

    Soso - pretty average We stayed in Thurso for two nights. For one night we wanted to eat out and were looking for a place. There was not much choice on that day, many places were closed. This place was recommended by some locals, so we gave it a go. It's a pretty busy Bar / Pub / Restaurant on two levels with lots of locals and a bunch of tourists. Service was very friendly and food came fast to our table. We took a seat more in the (quiet) back of the restaurant. We had some fried crab and Haggis Springrolls (!!) for a starter. For the main the Lamb Tagine and the Burger with fries (chips). Starters were fine, the Haggis Springrolls actually very good. The Burger was solid - nothing great, but nothing wrong. The Lamb was a bit of a disappointement. Meat wasn't great quality and even -for a Tagine - lacking some flavour and spice. Couscous on the side pretty bland too. Dessert was good again - Sticky Toffee Pudding. The drinks on the other hand here are pretty good and priced fair. So, the place has some ups and downs. Nothing breathtaking - nothing really bad. Average I would say.

    My wife and I came in for lunch after a recommendation from our hotel staff. The restaurant and pub was fairly empty with customers when we arrived. You order your food and drinks from the bar and they bring it to your table. My wife ordered a Chicken Caesar Salad and thought it was very good. I ordered a Steak Sandwich with grilled onions and chips, however they got my order wrong and brought me a Hamburger (steak burger) instead. Rather than make a fuss and send it back, I ate it and it was good. The prices for food and drinks were reasonable, but I rather have attentive table service rather than ordering food from the the bar. #thursorestaurants #thursopubs

    I think the Y not is the only bar in town in Thurso; as well as one or two pubs. When we went it was quiet even though it was a Friday night. The decoration is tasteful and up to date, it has plenty of seating and the toilets are satisfactory. The drinks prices were average for up here; it cost about £9 for two drinks and the staff were very friendly. There was. Good varied food menu with daily specials up on the board with a main course from £10-£13 not including the steaks which were more, I opted for the steak burger and chips. The food was presented well however I found the burger average and the chips quite tasteless and seemed undercooked even though they weren't. The bar is good for drinking and passing the time, there was free wifi available with good connectivity, the venue was warm. There is live music some nights according to information up on the walls, the only downside I found was the food however I only tried one dish. A good place to go for a few casual drinks with friends especially if you desire connectivit

    5 Stars for their limited menu which meant they were able to cook a few things perfectly and have…read more quick service. Instead of doing too much and end up having a bunch of average/poor food with slow service. Our tour bus dropped us off here for lunch just before heading off the see the Cliffs of Moher. All I want to say is that to ME, O'Connor's was a better attraction for me than a piece of rock next to the ocean (I have no idea what the bid deal is). Our table had their Seafood Chowder, Banger's & Mash And the Fish & Chips. Everything was very flavorful and fresh. Maybe it's because I'm American, but here, we have to pay at least 3 times the cost in order to get food that taste this fresh, otherwise it's most likely processed and have God knows what in it. The ordering process was also very simple, walk in, get a menu & table, remember your table number, walk up to the bar and tell them what you want and your table number, pay (and grab your drink if you ordered one), go sit down and in about 5 minutes your food is there. Fast, resonable priced, good AND Fresh. Couldn't ask for more. Ireland has truly been a very budget friendly country to visit

    Among the greatest of all Irish pubs. Founded in 1832,the pub sits along the coast of County…read moreClare, Ireland with the Atlantic Ocean as a backdrop and the Cliffs of Moher just minutes away. Go inside, grab a pint of Guinness and wait for the trad music to start. Order some tasty mussels and soda bread and another pint of Guinness. You'll never want to leave, and once you do, you'll long to come back.
