Killorans Traditional Restaurant, Sligo

Advantages: Handy stop-off on your travels
Disadvantages: A busy venue at all times of the day

...Driving northbound on the Sligo to Donegal road (N15) you are sure to drive through the picturesque village of Drumcliff. The Churchyard here is internationally recognised as the burial place of the poet WB.Yeats making this the definitive heart of Yeats Country. Drumcliff is also home to The Yeats Tavern Restaurant & Davis's Pub. One of Sligo’s oldest drinking and eating establishments, this fine pub/restaurant has been owned and run by the Davis family for over thirty five years. From the drinking mans local of the 1960’s, progressing on to their first menu of fresh fish, soup and sandwiches in the 70’s, the new century has seen this pub evolve to become a quality venue for eating and socialising. Open seven days a week, and only five miles from Sligo town, this is a popular spot frequented by both locals and visitors alike... Read review

...years ago from Victoria train station, its called an Over ground/Underground map. It's a pocket sized map available form vending machines for 1-2 GBP or retail outlets. It's a must have for any trip to London its been invaluable for all my trips to London. It is located 1 mile from the London Eye and Hyde Park, and 1½ miles from Madame Tussauds. It is ideally located for the theatres about ¼ mile, e.g. Royal Drury Lane, Strand, Duchess, Royal Opera House and Aldwych. **********Atmosphere********** The atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming, it is set out like a traditional olde English restaurant, so it does seem like you are stepping back into old times. It is however very quaint and I spent the whole time gazing round looking at all the photos, posters from advertisements, pictures, ornaments etc. The bar is very unique... Read review

.... The restaurant inside is modern, very chic and not, I wouldn't say, the traditional décor of an Asian restaurant. The floors were tiled with large cream ceramic tiles. Some of the walls are painted in a deep aubergine colour and some of them are painted cream. There are modern lights hanging from the ceiling and framed modern pictures hanging on the walls. Overall the colour scheme throughout is aubergine, cream, and brown which sounds strange but works really well and gives a comfortable but contemporary feel to the surroundings. At the sides of the ceiling are lights which emit different colour lights, adding to the funky feel of the restaurant. On the left hand side wall of the restaurant is a large light box with the work Akbars in it. From the door the restaurant looked very large. We were immediately aware of how noisy the restaurant was... Read review
