The Connaught Inn is set in an old 18th century building in Castlebar, County Mayo. It's a friendly and cosy pub with a modern interior. Diners can dine in the stylishly designed restaurant or, in good weather, out in the courtyard garden. The pub is popular with local residents and visitors to the area. It offers a range of weekly events, screens live sports and boasts a well-stocked bar.
The Connaught Inn also serves up a great selection of traditional Irish cuisine with a contemporary twist. All of the food here is locally sourced where possible, meaning it is all a fresh as can be and packed with flavour. From light bites at lunch time to more substantial evening meals, there are dishes to suit all tastes and budgets.
Diners can make their choices from a menu which changes with the seasons. There's always a great selection of meat and fish dishes with options like a pan fried chicken supreme served with white wine, scallion and chive sauce, an 8oz sirloin steak served with brandy and peppercorn sauce and a poached cod loin in a rich and creamy crab sauce.
The Connaught Inn is located just 10 minutes' walk from Castlebar rail station. It's a shorter, five minute walk into Castlebar town centre where diners will find the Theatre Royal Concert Centre, Linenhall Arts Centre and the hustle and bustle of local shops. There's plenty of spectacular countryside to explore in the local area too and, for drivers, a car park to the rear of the pub.
