Excellent pub. Quite small with the loveliest interior and a beautiful fire, lovely to sit by for a bit on a miserable day. Gets deservedly busy when there's music (catch the Nocrows if you can). Decently priced, lovely staff and clientele. Great Guinness, great craic 💚

What recent reviewers mention most:
Guinness & pintsBusy at peak timesAtmosphere
A cramped a little bar filled with locals and with tons of atmosphere. Music starts late in the night. Loved it here.
Shoot the Crows was on our list of pubs to visit while we were in Sligo, it did not disappoint. The interior was cozy and inviting and the Guinness was fabulous. The barman/owner was very busy, however, noticing that we were Americans, he took time to chat with us. We only wish we could have such a place in the States.
