At Morrissey’s of Abbeyleix the essential character of the premises lies in its ability to appeal to the modern drinker in the authentic setting of yesteryear. The exterior of the building has retained the character of former times and is virtually unchanged since the early eighteen hundreds.
The interior provides an unspoilt insight into the twilight mists of another era. Panelled booths and privy snob divides, wooden whiskey barrels and Indian tea tins give a comforting air of nostalgic solidity. Since the days when horse drawn transport was commonplace in Abbeyleix and Morrissey’s baked their own bread and bottled their own beverages, the tradition of service, personal attention and customer appreciation has been steadfastly maintained.
One of the most famous pubs in Ireland, Morrissey’s is an indelible landmark in the evolution of the Irish pub. Rich in history, character and quality!
