O'Lochlainns Bar

No Ballyvaughan trip would be complete without this old-timer's pub, with its epic collection of whiskey brands. Set in a tidy building near the village square, with one eye on Galway Bay, O'Lochlainn's is a family business that opens every night from 8 pm (when the farming day is over) until late. Its intimate dark-wood interior is a throwback to the 1930s, when it was a store and local tea blender.
