    At first I thought the narrow door at the front with a step was inaccessible but I was wrong. This is pretty much a typical Irish pub, with a great selection of beers. The Hilden brewery is near by and they had a great selection from them. I may had a Guinness (when in Ireland) and a very tasty IPA, Maggie Leap from Northern Ireland's Whitewater Brewery.

    You can access the pub from the side entrance and there is a bar and a disabled toilet that everyone can access.

    It's right bang on the villages Main Street, albeit its on a steep hill. The car park at the bottom of the hill is big and has three accessible spaces. It is a 2 minute walk down from Hillsborough Castle.

    Very cheerful and helpful. Communicated well and took our order so we didn't have to carry our drinks outside.

    Additional Information

    Inside the bar was nice and cosy and they had a brilliant live act singing in the corner, mostly van the man covers. There was a really good sized beer garden with with seats and heaters. It was protected from the wind too.
