Nice clean place, full of locals and very welcoming to a yank tourist(like me). They had live music the Saturday night we were there and the craic was mighty. Lots of room for functions, very well attended by the staff, and plenty of parking. Tell the owner, Pat Ryan, that Steve from America sent you. if you’re lucky, it’ll get you a handshake, at least…

Now here’s a little find along the N24 from Tipperary to Limerick at Ballyluddy, Pallasgreen. We were recommended by a local when we were on business to nearby town of Oola that this is where you get good food and not at rip-off prices. Its a remote spot at a road junction with plenty of parking with a big banner advertising their food range. Its home cooking at its best, with bacon & cabbage, roast chicken, home-made beefburgers in onion gravy, meat & mushroom pastry pies, curry dishes etc, all typical Irish dinners to feed many a farmer and weary traveller. There’s an excellent special at € 12.95 for a starter & main course, or main course and dessert which also includes tea or coffee. Otherwise, most mains are € 8.95, start & desserts from € 3.95. Vegetable soup was the starter and it was freshly made, very tasty, and the homemade brown bread was delicious. The beefburger smothered in onion gravy was good quality beef and its sides of crunchy fresh salad and hand-cut chips added to make for a hearty meal. A little dessert of the profiteroles between us was followed up with a pot of tea for two. We were well fed, attended to by a smiling young local girl, and chatted lightly with locals on a lovely sunny day. We hope to be back locally on business soon, and will look forward to next on the menu.
