On a quick visit to Thurles from Glasgow, had a few top notch pints of stout , Paudy the barman looked after me well and is so friendly, I had a great few hours here and next time I'm in Tipp ill be heading straight for Kennedys . They do great food at lunchtime too that'll set you up for a day's drinking. 10 out of 10 from me
Really nice bar great staff and excellent owners. Good place for a quite pint or a great night out. Also the owners are very sound people and couldn't do enough for you.
