| I enjoyed this Open Crab Sandwich, one of the specials on the lunch menu. If it is on when you call, you're in luck! It was a beautiful day and their outside dining area was very popular. Choices galore on the regular menu and other specials included Confit Duck Leg, Pan Fried Hake, Oven Roasted Monkfish, and Lobster Termidor (a real treat). After a hearty breakfast and a big dinner already reserved, we had to take it easy. Will know better next time! An extensive wine list frequently offers monthly or weekly specials - indeed they have a wine sale on. And they run a very successful art gallery. It may seem sleepy on the outside on a sunny day but it is a busy place! |

The local church, St. Barrahane’s, is over 200 years old and sits at the top of 52 steps — one for every Sunday of the year. Inside you’ll find beautiful stained glass windows by Harry Clarke. |

| Mary Ann's has its own not inconsiderable history and previous and current owners are proudly displayed here. |
