About MacNamara's Irish Pub

Country hospitality anchors MacNamara's Irish Pub, dishing out hefty plates, cold beer, and live weekend tunes in Kilmore. Road-trippers pulling in right before the kitchen cuts off get fed without a fuss—whether ordering crisp lamb cutlets, melt-in-the-mouth shanks, or chicken parmas with chips. Regulars gather over weekday pints and Monday steak specials before live bands fire up old rock tunes on Friday and Saturday nights. Glasses stay full around the pool table while Guinness pies bake golden in the ovens.

  • Late-Order Flexibility: Kitchen staff regularly welcome late arrivals and take full orders right up against closing time.
  • Weekend Live Music: Friday and Saturday nights transition into live rock sets and drinks across the floor.
  • Hearty Classic Pub Feeds: Generous serves lead the menu, from crisp lamb cutlets and lamb shanks to parmas and hearty Guinness pies.
