Fab service, food and staff

Just a great spot - casual and relaxed atmosphere with friendly engaged staff - who would sit down for a chat and some local story telling. Food matched the service and staff - best meal we had on the island in 3 days.

Great pub grub.

We had heard of the Currach so had to stop by for a meal. We were a bit early but made very welcome by the publican Phil. We had the garlic bread to start - very tasty, then followed that with the fish and chips....More
