Kyteler's Inn
Medieval pub with good beer, food and atmosphere, trad music most nights. It's best known as the home of Alice Kyteler, who in 1324 was among the first in Europe to be accused of witchcraft - most persecutions came 300 years later. She was the daughter of Flemish merchants, and her husbands kept dying on her, while her wealth mysteriously grew. However those accusations of foul play came way down the charge sheet, which listed all sort of diabolical hocus-pocus. The most shocking involved a manifestation of the devil called Robin Artisson, quendam demonem incubum concubuisse cum ea, which you can really only get away with in Gomorrah or Galway. She may have been a pawn in a power struggle between secular and church jurisdiction, which the church won by torturing her servant Petronella to confess. Kyteler fled to England and disappeared, so (not to waste a good confession) Petronella was burnt at the stake instead.

Great stylish restaurant, the early bird is excellent value. They're also a hotel but it's the food that gets the great reviews.
