Wow, what a spot. Ann, what can I say. Her charm & etiquette have made this a wonderful experience. The mini dog farm & regular clientele were the cherry on top.

Absolute favorite spot in Athlone during my study abroad trip!
Came in the first night on a whim, and the welcome was so warm I kept coming back over the next month. It is a smaller spot, but the atmosphere is iconic.
Ann and her dogs were my home away from home during my stay.

I happened upon this little gem on a rainy Thursday evening and was delighted to do so. The dogs are just beautiful and the Guinness is very good.
