Right enough. Once they get the hump too every single little thing that would at best be a minor criticism gets blown out of all proportion.

 Did think Sage was very good at the top of the town , even Newry Rep said it was decent Smile
 
Tried to book there again a couple of weeks ago and it was booked out
 
Sage has a terrible reputation around Westport.

Even worse than his one in coppers 😀

An Port Mór is good 
 
Cian's pop up is supposed to be really good. I ate in the one in town last week and it was lovely but just burgers etc. The one out at the hotel is a level up.

I lived in Galway for a time after visiting the city and thinking what a nice place it was.

It rained every f**king day.

Did 5 days in The Kingdom last week. Got lucky with the weather, was decent. Stunning place. Planned on doing Dingle on the Monday, forgot it was a Bank holiday. Couldn't get parking anywhere so headed off around Slea Head and came across Coumeenole Beach near Dunquin. Couldn't pass it and ended up staying there for 4 hours. Would recommend it to anyone, small but just beautiful with stunning scenery. 
Headed back into Dingle then when it had quietened a bit but not much. Is it always that busy?
First time down in Kerry in about ten years, I'd go back just to sit on that beach for a day
Some people just deserve a slap

Just back from Dingle. Wasn’t busy at all. Expected it to be way more populated. No issue with parking and no issue with getting into pubs for walk ins but really, it’s just a complete pain in the hole. The amount of cracking pubs closed and no live music just totally watered down the experience.

Lucked out with the weather though. Was class.

Tragic to see all the cosy, cracking looking pubs closed in Westport though. That was very sad.

Thought you'd be more of a Dundalk, Warrenpoint Newry type of guy.
