  Cong - the Quiet Man pub
by globetrott
 
 

One of the most popular pubs of all Ireland is certainly this one - although it never had been a real pub, but a simple grocery store.

But in the movie 'The Quiet Man' it was used as John Wayne's pub, and a lot of tourists would like to see the 'famous pub' and they are quite disappointed not to be able to take a drink at the place, where John Wayne had to fight against his brother in law...


Favorite Dish: It is a grocery, so you may buy also packed food and drinks there and you will also find a big selection of black&white pics of the movie !

Address: Cong
