The Brazen Head is officially Ireland’s oldest pub, dating back to 1198.

If you are looking for the true Irish pub experience then the Brazen Head Pub should be your first port of call.

The pub has managed to retain the charm and characteristics of it’s past and in particular it’s patrons, who have included such literaries as James Joyce, Brendan Behan and Jonathan Swift as well as such revolutionaries as Robert Emmet, Wolfe Tone, Daniel O’Connell and Michael Collins.Today the patrons still include some famous faces, including some very famous musicians like Van Morrison, Hothouse Flowers, Mary Black and Garth Brooks.

The decision to open the Farm in 2007 was three years in the making and came about by the obvious requirement by the public for better, healthier, and traceable fresh and even in some cases Organic food. Having thought about this and discussed it at length for what seemed like an eternity it was decided that the Farm concept would become a reality, with our mission statement as “Affordable, tasty, homemade and locally sourced. As much organic and or free range as we can, healthy vegetables and fresh herbs”. This mission statement has served us well and the Farm has been warmly embraced by locals and visitors alike.

Koh has a distinctive share dining concept, Nung Kin Khao (literally translates from thai as ‘let’s all gather around and eat’). Our menu has been designed to include many dishes suitable for sharing, eating family style as is popular in Asia, recreating the richness of Thai and Asian street food and also using these fantastic flavours to marry with ingredients sourced locally to allow our chefs create modern dishes with a strong emphasis on the east. In the cocktail bar the challenge has been to find products that compliment the wine and food menus. Interestingly, the style of cocktail that seems to work best at Koh resembles the wines; cocktails are bright and crisp – balanced by a touch of sweetness. Like the kitchen, the bar at Koh uses the freshest ingredients and we make all our purees fresh.
