The Village Inn and Bar
Review
Just a short hop from the M18 or M6, The Village Inn in Kilchreest is a brilliant alternative to your standard motorway stop. Perfectly placed between Galway, Loughrea and Portumna, this pub has quickly earned its stripes under the direction of its experienced owner. Though only open under his custodianship for three years, it already feels like a well-loved part of the community. With regular trad sessions and live music lighting up the weekends, it’s fast becoming a favourite for both locals and visitors alike. The recently revamped beer garden is a real highlight here, offering the perfect setting for sunny afternoons. Combine that with hearty food, a welcoming vibe, and a top-notch team of staff, and you’ve every reason to make the short detour.
