Georgina Campbell Guides - Mikey Ryan's Bar and Kitchen
 

Behind a smart traditional pub frontage on Cashel's main street, Mikey Ryan’s serves up some surprises - not least the numerous and varied but equally delightful spaces that lie between the front door and the back, including the fine old bar and a beautifully laid out garden area (with back entrance) adjacent to its sister property, Cashel Palace Hotel. And then there is the food...delicious dishes based on excellent local produce from Tipperary and neighbouring counties. Well worth a detour.
