We've been to this area many times but this time came specifically for the guitar festival. This is a great pub which from entering on the street seems to go on for miles. The music was great and the service was good. It was packed with music lovers, and we visited several times over the weekend.

Mick Finns Bar

Friendly Local bar, serving tasty food 7 days a week. Great atmosphere for all live sporting occasions shown on our 7 screens. Regular weekend entertainment complimented by an expansive choice of Cocktail, Gin & Wine menus.

Reviewed By JosephPlunkett

Visited Finns twice while on a short staycation in Clonakilty and surrounding areas. With the new regulations regarding the need to have food in bars it ticked all the boxes. The Buffalo wings were a perfect accompaniment to my pint of creamy Guinness, whilst my wife was full of praise for the nachos. Went back for a full meal the following evening and the gougons are highly recommended. Felt very safe in this new era of socialising with hand sanitiser on entry and well spread out tables. Staff could be seen sanitising regularly also. Will return and recommend .
