Anchor Inn in County Clare, is a prime location for visitors. It is a home away from home, a friendly place to have a drink, chat, dance, and enjoy a singalong. There is a beer garden to relax in on those long summer evenings and lots of live music to keep you entertained.

Enjoy live traditional music sessions every Wednesday and Thursday from 21:30. You are encouraged to take part in the playing and singing with the local artists if you feel inspired. You can also try your hand or feet at traditional Irish set dancing with lessons hosted by professional teachers.

Live rock bands take to the stage each Saturday night.
