Prior’s is the oldest established pub in Ballinamore, founded in 1922 by Peter Hoey, the grandfather of Gay Prior, the present owner. Prior’s values its reputation as the best pub in town based on its genuine warmth and hospitality, the superb condition of its drinks, and the quality of its fine locally-produced food and the attentiveness and care of its pleasant and unobtrusive staff. Prior’s is
the town’s Sports Bar where old and young congregate to re-live old sporting glories and find their photographs in the extensive Hallway of Fame. Prior’s is a family pub, where families are welcome whether to sample our tantalising menus, a refreshing mineral drink, a relaxing cup of fresh-brewed Illy coffee, an exotic cocktail or the best pint in Ceannabo. Prior’s was short listed by Licensing World, the leading trade magazine, as one of the three the Best Sports Bar in Ireland in 2006 and the Best Local Bar in 2007.
