Storytelling & Tastings:
The Roadside Tavern is the place where Peter Curtin will receive people of curious minds for sessions of storytelling. And stories he has many to tell! One of the most spectacular stories is the one of his discovery that the landscape of the Burren inspired JRR Tolkien in this famous “Lord of the Rings” trilogy. But there are stories of Bram Stoker and many more to tell.
The old pub is also the place where you can taste the range of Burren Brewery beers.
