Spend an evening at the Merry Ploughboy Pub for a lively night of Irish song and dance. Enjoy dinner, then settle in for ballads, humour and dancers performing in a warm, informal pub.
Full description
The Merry Ploughboy Pub hosts a nightly show of Irish songs, ballads and humour in an informal pub setting, with skilled dancers joining the musicians. The dinner package adds a three-course meal before the performance, while drinks are paid for separately.
Reviewers praise the food, the staff and the entertainment, and several note the venue lies outside the city, with one reporting well over an hour by bus and another about half an hour by car. That journey is worth factoring in, but the evening is a relaxed, convivial option for couples and older travellers.
