We visited for dinner with friends that were staying with us, and what a fantastic place to eat and drink! The service, atmosphere, food and drink were superb. I would thoroughly recommend the mussels. There is a wide range of sauces you can have. I chose the Jaw Box Gin and cream. Thank you everyone and we will be back very soon.

I cannot say enough about the hospitality. My husband and I stayed two nights in room 11 for The Open and had an amazing stay. Had dinner one night and it was the best meal we had in Ireland. Breakfast the last morning was great and we even grabbed a few items from the store. Definitely stay here!!!
We loved our stay at the Fullerton Arms. The food and service were excellent. Our room was exceptionally clean and quiet. I love having the vibe of the original pub but with all of the modern updates that make it feel clean and comfortable. I highly recommend!
