Best Thai food in Sligo. Eat in only, reservation recommended because it’s small and gets busy every night. Only a couple of blocks away. We especially like the Crispy Wontons and La Ji Prawns.

Large pub with craft beer, a great menu, and live music weekly. Good pub food. We recommend the Funky Chunky Chips, Nachos, and Veggie Supreme pizza. The owner is Australian so the menu/vibe is a little different. Outdoor beer garden.
