my wife and i were in Ireland in June. We stayed at the Seaview BNB, and they recommended you for dinner. Just wanted to let you know that we still talk very fondly of our visit. Dinner was great, along with the staff. I had the Guinness beef and my wife had a chicken dish. We would come back for dinner tomorrow, if we didn't live just outside Chicago.

A great meal, friendly staff, and a wonderful building, full of atmosphere and history... Truly a very happy memory of our time in Eire.

Just wanted to say thanks for it all...

Press release August 15, 2013

Nat Soul raised the rafters in Seanachaí for Helvick Lifeboat

Nat Soul Band raised the rafters in An Seanachaí on Wednesday night (August 14^th) in aid of the Helvick Lifeboat.

This five piece Italian soul band had them dancing on the flagstones in the well known old world thatched pub and restaurant located in Pulla just outside Dungarvan on the Cork road, run by Mags and Johnny Hurley.

There was a very nice crowd in attendance for this fantastic evening of blues, soul and BBQ supper with an Italian twist. Indeed Mags and Johnny and their team pulled out all the stops. “We are delighted to host this fantastic evening for the RNLI Helvick Lifeboat” says Johnny as he presented an impressive donation to Josephine Harty and members of the RNLI Fundraising Committee.
