Nestled in the heart of the Gaeltacht village of Ceathrú na gCloch (Stonefield) in Erris, County Mayo, Teach Chonghóile/Connollys Pub has been a traditional family-run gem since 1963. Today, it is proudly run by Lorraine Connolly, welcoming locals, walkers, and visitors from far and wide with the same warmth that has defined the pub for generations.
This charming pub is renowned for its friendly atmosphere, regular live music sessions, and occasional summer bands that bring the spirit of Ireland to life in a uniquely authentic way.
Traditional Warmth & Live Music
Whether you’re unwinding by the bar or tapping toes at a trad session, Connollys embraces the soul of Gaelic culture. The rhythm of tin whistles, fiddles, and heartfelt song in this cozy setting is as enriching as the landscapes that surround it.
