The Shack - Athlone

We we put right in front of open fire and it was so cosy as it was freezing out.food was fantastic especially the beef.prompt service and fantastic atmosphere. Definitely calling again.

There is free parking outside. The place has a nice and cosy feel. It was very hot but better than being cold, i suppose. The servers were polite. We did have 4 of them during our visit. The food was ok, it was nicely presented but I feel the quality of the ingredients don't warrant the price they are charging. I've had way nicer, and the food wouldn't entice me back, to be honest. A pet hate is when 1 person is still eating and the others have finished, and the server tries to clear the table around you. I had to ask her to wait, and I started to feel uncomfortable as she kept walking past. None of us finished the food, and we were asked if we would like it boxed to take with us. That was a nice touch. There was a good selection on the menu but different from the 2023 menu on the web page.

Great fish and chips, generous portions, Went out of their way to serve us food outside as we were with a doggy 10/10 service, good pint

What a fantastic place! The food is always amazing, the staff is great, and the atmosphere is wonderful. We stop in regularly when in Athlone.

Food was lovely. Nice few pints in front of the fire. The staff were very friendly.
