Freddy's

Lively pub, the interior is done up like a church. Also calls itself a "gastropub" (which frankly it's not, you won't starve but few visitors rate the food) and a "music hall" which is on the mark, there's always live folk and other styles of music.

The Quays

A local favourite: good grub, whiskey and atmosphere.

Daily 11AM–midnight, Sun noon–midnight

Tigh Neachtain

A small and independent but highly acclaimed theatre.

Druid Theater

Famous fish and chip shop, open since 1902. Takeaway or eat either at the communal cafe tables or in the restaurant.
