We’re putting a very special show on sale for Saturday October 17th.

We’ve had lots of requests from people travelling from all over who couldn’t get tickets for our winter residency, so we thought we’d add one more show as a little bonus.

We really appreciate this level of support. We’re very aware of how difficult things are for artists and venues around the country, and we’re just grateful that you keep coming, and keep asking us to play.

As long as you’re there, we’re there.

Mind yourselves, and we’re really looking forward to seeing you all on October 17th.
Joe P.

🍺 OKTOBERFEST AT THE WHITE HORSE 🍺

Saturday 26th September

Oktoberfest is coming to Ballincollig.

Sunshine Primo & Mark Ahern from are on the grill, firing out big handmade German sausages with all the works — German potato salad, sauerkraut and plenty more Bavarian sides. All killer, no filler.

And the b**rs?
Cold German b**rs from Weihenstephaner — the world’s oldest brewery — pouring on tap via Grand Cru Beers. 🍺

Cold b**r. Big sausages. Oktoberfest. 🍺
Grab the gang, come hungry — tickets in bio.
PROST! 🍻

The first Saturday in September, and so many special moments under our little roof tonight .

A beautiful couple celebrating their Day 2 in Hare’s Corner,
The Pilgrim sold out upstairs for another magical gig, and Katie Taylor fight live in the front bar and b**r garden.

Three very different occasions, but hopefully one common thread — celebration.

Beir bua, Katie ❤️

Have you tried our Beef Brisket Sandwich?

Slow-braised beef brisket, pickles & red cabbage slaw in freshly baked Bakestone Focaccia Genovese.

Warm focaccia, tender brisket and plenty of jus for dipping. Proper comfort food.
On our lunch menu — come hungry. 😋

We at The White Horse are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Elmarie Mawe.

She championed the arts in our city from a place of love, joy and passion and always held a space for those artists and creatives venturing out for the first time - a delicate, nurturing and encouraging nudge into the light.

We’ll miss her radiant smile, the twinkle in her eye and the warmth of her heart.

Ní bheidh a leithéad arís ann. Suaimhneas síoraí dá hanam cheolmhar. Grá mór go Conchúr agus comhbhrón ó chroí dá muintir.
