Loved this place. The owner is Australian and was very welcoming and friendly. He serves a variety of beers IPA cider and makes his own res ale. There was a music act from the USA and was very entertaining. Could habe stayed there all night and will definitely go there again the next time I am in Sligo.
Fantastic food, great bar selection and friendly staff. Best bar in Sligo
Best bar in Sligo town. Staff are super friendly and you can call them your friends from the minute you walk in the door.
Best bar staff in sligo. Great food, relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.
First pub of the day was The Swagman, a little bit of a walk from the train station, but eventually found it. Had a massive crowd in it which was impressive for the middle of the day but I guess the rain has people in with nothing else to do on a Saturday! Was hard enough to get a seat but did in the end. Bar man charged my phone which was gracious of him.
Bar was doing well with food, and had the rugby on the box. Not really my type of place, I am not a huge fan of bar/restaurant combos or at least places that dont separate the two crowds, the beer drinkers and the foodies.
A lot of options to drink from the usual to some interesting craft beer options. Apparently they have got over 30 craft beers on offer! Got an ale from local brewers The White Hag Brewery, on the recommendation of the bar man. Found it a bit tough to drink to be honest, but its always good to try something different.
Bar had a very interesting decor, traditional feel but also with a lot of Australian references, which was very interesting to look at, and overall it is a nice bar, just a bit too crowded and cramped for my liking, albeit service was efficient and quick enough which is always important!
I would like to visit this bar again away from the midday food crowd as I’m sure at night it can be a place to have some fun in. And I see they do have some live music and trad nights so I guess will have to be back to test that!
Great choice of food, whiskey and spirits. Absolutely lovely staff as well. Great pub.
Food was bad and overpriced and the toilets disgusting,could hear the staff having a great time in the kitchen. Should stick to selling beer's and havingbstudent night's and leave the food to the pro's McDonald's,KFC,Burger king etc.
A damn good pub with fair prices and tasty food.
Sligo's answer to a Craft beer Bar with main stream beers to cater for everyone, good food and music most nights. They don't need a festival in Sligo to have there own festivals out door stage fabulous place and a must visit if you are in Sligo 5*.
One of the best pubs in Sligo. Great owner, Dale is incredibly friendly and makes everyone feel welcomed. Food served until around 9, and is very delicious. The peppercorn chicken is amazing, as is the penne pasta. For nightlife, Swagman is a great spit for a few pints. The staff will accommodate for whatever your needs, and the love music in here is awesome.
