Overview

Join me for a unique experience of Kilkenny, while we sip the perfect Irish Coffee.

Let me show how to recreate the perfect Irish Coffee using as many local ingredients as possible. While you enjoy your Irish Coffee, Ill tell you the weird and wonderful storey of Dame Alice Kyteler the former owner of the Inn that was accused of Witchcraft, Heresy & Murder.

Once finished your Irish Coffee, we'll take a tour through the medieval dungeon and underground basement. You'll learn all about the Cats and why you see their murals everywhere. Experience the spooky ambiance of the basement and what may have occured within the walls 700 years ago.

Finally we pay homage to Alice at her statue learn about some of the weird things that happened over the years within the walls of the pub.

Finish your tour with a little souvenir and maybe you might stay on for lunch.
