Innishannon is a place i have passed through many times but never stopped for too long. Myself and Jen headed down last night to check it out. There has been many a time while sitting in traffic i have looked at the pubs while passing with the intention of reviewing them. The first pub we ventured into is Sheppos. As far as i am aware this pub is under new ownership/management. It was previously called by a different name that i can’t remember. It is located on the main street in downtown Innishannon. It looks impressive from the outside advertising that there is regular live music and bar food available. We entered through the glass doors and noticed a good few people sitting at the bar. We got a few stares as we took our seat. I ordered a pint of Murphys and a glass of diet coke. I can’t fault the pint of Murphy’s i got, it was very enjoyable. The pub is comfortable and there are plenty seats available. There was a match on the tv and there was a few screens scattered around. It is a very bright pub with a second area at the back where you can avail of a pool table. There wasn’t a big crowd out but it was a Wednesday night.
I took a look at the toilets and they were fine. They were clean and a good size with one cubicle available. A friend of mine from work had food down there recently and she said that it was very enjoyable and good quality. She felt that the ladies toilets could do with being modernised. Overall i feel that this is a fairly decent pub that has a lot of attraction.
Toilet rating: 7/10
Pint rating: 8/10
Overall rating: 7.5/10
Final comment: Head to Sheppos for a decent pint or try a meal.
