The last pub that we visited on our trip to Oranmore was Glynn’s bar. Immediately when i walked into this bar i knew that i would like it. It is quite a small pub but with tonnes of character. There was a few people inside and we got a seat just on the left inside the door. I ordered the drinks at the bar and the bar man was friendly and made chit chat. I noticed that there was a group of men playing cards in a small section just off the main bar. There was a group of three people sitting next to us and they were maybe a few years older but the majority of the people sitting at the bar were 50+. The pint of Guinness was perhaps the best of the night and i have to say that the quality of stout i tried in Galway was excellent.
The toilets in this pub were a bit confusing. There was no signs on the door to indicate which was the ladies and which was the gents. The toilets themselves were ok and there is an old hand dryer there. I know that if Ryan or Kevin visited this pub that they would like it. I got a packet of bacon fries and i ate them and then noticed that they were out of date, didn’t do me any harm though! I won’t say its the liveliest pub in Oranmore because its not but it was good for a good pint of the black stuff. I was only in the pub for about a half an hour but knew half of the people’s names in there because everyone could hear everyone elses conversations. I even said ‘Night Johnny’ to one man who looked at me a bit baffled as how he knew me!
Toilet rating: 6/10
Pint rating: 8.5/10

Final comment: Glynn’s bar in Oranmore was a good find. Me and Jen enjoyed the visit.
