A sister property to the famous Langton’s Bar & Restaurant and Langton House Hotel on John Street, the Langton family’s historic bar was re-designed some years ago by the internationally acclaimed Irish designer, the late David Collins - who did very little work in his native country. Although initially controversial, it is a wonderful space to be in and attracts a varied clientèle.


Everyone enjoys the vibrant atmosphere, and the excellent ingredients-led contemporary European bar food: a dish like confit of pork sausages with creamy potatoes and red wine onion gravy or black cherry jus, for example, will probably be based on the superb lean sausages hand-made nearby by Olivia Goodwillie (who also makes Lavistown cheese), and the fresh cod’n’chips in a crispy beer batter will be just in from Dunmore East.


More recently the bar has re-invented itself again and the Marble City Tea Rooms, below the main bar/restaurant area, offer lighter food like coffees, teas and pastry, 9-7 daily - there’s outdoor seating for a couple of dozen people on the pedestrianised lane at the back of the building.


This place is incredibly popular but you may expect good service, even at busy times and there's a well-chosen small wine list.


* Lovers of old-world bars should also seek out the atmospheric sister property Bridies Bar & General Store. Located on John Street beside Langtons, it is also full of history and has a charming garden at he back - a delightful oasis, away from the busy street.
