Dating from 1770, this wonderful pub anchors Annagassan life. It has its own beer, Linn Duachaill (named for a local Viking settlement currently being excavated), which is also the name of its restaurant, which overlooks the beer garden, Dundalk Bay's tidal shallows and Mourne Mountains beyond. Local seafood is the speciality: Annagassan crab claws, Clogherhead hake and Irish Sea scampi,
Upstairs are four comfy rooms (double/family €90/140) with balconies facing the water.
