Description

An excellent pub, located near Thoor Ballylea and Coole Park, once homes to some of our literary revivalists. This pub and restaurant has won various awards, including 'Best Newcomer', 'National Pub 1998' and the 'Black and White Whiskey Pub' Award. Local seafood and mouth-watering steaks are among the specialities, and an excellent selection of wines from all over the world complement any meal. This comfortable establishment incorporates flagstone floors, stained glass windows and a heartwarming open fire. The Blackthorn is a real find for lovers of Irish set dancing; reels and jigs abound on Saturday nights.
