Pizza

Ben LeachJune 2026 · via Google

Perfect stop when visiting Sligo. They have a great set of outdoor seating, both covered and open air, as well as plenty of seating inside if needed.
Lee was an amazing lad behind the bar who couldn't have been nicer or friendlier. I'm extremely glad he recommended the pizzas they have just started serving as our pizzas were hands down the nicest I have had in all the counties I've visited. Proper Italian homemade pizzas, with the perfect Irish twist. I can see why they are in high demand!
Overall an amazing experience and top priced pints to finish it all off!
My thanks to Lee and the lads.

First and the last time. Definitely won't be back for food. Almost everything taste the same. Whatever you have ordered. Dirty glasses. Atmosphere is not bad, but that's it.

They started serving pizza, tastes great, love it. Must have.

Atmosphere is full of dangerous drunks though, but I can handle it.
