Athboy local

Just moved to Athboy from Galway. Looking for a nice Friendly place for food and drinks. Nothing pretentious just a warm friendly place with good tasty food. Thanks:)

I'm from near Athboy but live in Galway, depends on your age but my favourite spot in Athboy is Carty's good food good live music and a cool bar.

Cartys would be the best place for grub IMO. For drink in general, Athboy has a great selection of pubs.

Daly's is a bit rough around the edges but the food is very nice and tasty. Have to say that Carty's is spot on for food too. The Darnley does a very nice evening bar menu. Steak Diane is delish

Ps Welcome to Athboy hope you enjoy living here

swissmiss

Thanks very much to all. Enjoying it so far.Think I'll try Cartys this weekend. Hope its nice.:)

I recommend Molly's Kitchen at the back of McElhinney's for breakfast, lunches and beverages. A great place to meet for a coffee.

Hi again thanks to all for replies. End up calling into Cartys Sat evening for food was so nice ended up stayin the night. Loved the open fire. Anyway goin to have to try the rest another night. Thanks again

endplate

Yeah the open fire is very homely esp when you get a seat next to it

Fagans is the best pub for a game of pool anyway.

Fagans is great from the point of view that it's a real regulars pup. The owners are very nice and friendly. Whenever the father in law is up for a visit we will always venture to Fagans for a few and there is always a bit of banter going on

Have to disagree with your view on Callaghan's; Pat's a legend.
