I've performed music at nearly every venue in Ireland at this stage, first time here last night. Beautiful hotel, good big function room with a nice view out the back onto the old bridge over the river. The bar is a cosy traditional Irish bar, I wish I could of sat there all day, the restaurant is spacious and attached to the bar with a diverse menu, the duck dish I got was delicious, and most importantly the staff were all friendly and a credit to the establishment.

We had our wedding at The Lord Bagenal on 3rd May and it was absolutely perfect from start to finish! The service was simply unbelievable — every detail was looked after with such care, making us and our guests feel truly special throughout the whole day. The food was outstanding, with so many of our guests telling us it was the best wedding meal they’ve ever had! A huge thank you to James, Nial, Sue, and the entire team — you were all amazing. Nothing was too much trouble, and you made everything run so smoothly, allowing us to relax and just enjoy every moment. From the warm welcome to the flawless organisation and genuine hospitality, you really went above and beyond to make our day unforgettable. We couldn’t have wished for a better venue or a better team. If you’re thinking about having your wedding here — do it, you will not be disappointed!

Great location next to the river and grand foyer area. The bar and outside terrace area are both very comfortable. The dinner options were good and the curry, fish of the day and hamburger were all enjoyed. The brownie, cheesceake and bread and butter pudding were also more than up to scratch.
