Spirit Store

Counties Meath, Louth, Cavan & Monaghan


Downstairs this sunset-pink-painted place is your typical harbour-front bar, full of character and characters. Upstairs is a state-of-the-art live venue, with a terrific sound system that is beloved of both the crowd and the regular streams of touring musicians that play here. Across both bars, there's live music Friday to Sunday, including Sunday-afternoon trad sessions.

On Mondays it hosts a pub quiz with pints as prizes. Look out for comedy shows and board-game nights.
