Stayed in a nearby B&B, this pub was recommended by the proprietor. Nice basic meals at great prices. Can't fault it. Good service by the staff. 10 - 12 € for a main, 4 € for a desert. Friendly locals didn't mind us invading their space.

A group of 22 of us stated at the brog maker for a hen party last weekend and I felt I needed to comment on the establishment. From the moment we arrived we were warmly welcomed by a lovely lady at the desk and given the keys to our rooms. From there nothing was a problem for the staff- they... More

We ate here today and the food was excellent. The portions of meat were generous and the staff were very prompt. It's such a pity that I had to send back a dirty milk jug that was coated with scum inside and what looked like the reminants of sour milk. I requested a clean jug of milk for my tea... More

I stayed at the Brog Maker with my hen/batchelorette party in December 2012. Though nothing fancy, it was perfect for what we wanted - a bed for the night & breakfast the next day. The hotel is located five minutes from the centre of Kilkenny on the Castlecomer Road. The hotel has a spacious bar/restaurant area and we were very... More

Myself and 3 of my mates stayed here last September and all we can say is top class hospitality. From the moment we arrived we felt at home. All the staff are really friendly and couldn't be more helpful. Yeah it's not the Ritz but it doesn't pretend to be. Ideal for groups on a budget just looking for a... More

Myself and 5 of my family and friends stayed there as part of a hen party package and from the word go this venue is a travesty. The exterior of the Guesthouse is shabby and in need of some care ( paint at least if nothing else!!!). There is an entrance marked guests but this door was closed and the... More
