the GLyde inn – Annagassan, co. louth 

The Glyde Inn is located in the coastal village of Annagassan in Co Louth. This quiet seaside village lies where the River Glyde meets the sea. It’s a three-generational O’Neill family business, currently operated by Paul and Ann O’Neill and their son Conor. The Glyde Inn enjoys a rich reputation for warm welcoming hospitality and good local food.

The secret sauce behind the food is the locally sourced fresh seafood and the inspired decision by Ann O’Neill to take a cookery course with Darina Allan at Ballymaloe Cookery School about 32 years ago.

The Glyde Inn became a destination restaurant. The O’Neill’s extended the premises at the back of the pub to create the restaurant and outdoor terrace with commanding views across the water to the Moran Mountains and The Cooley Peninsula.

In recent times, son Conor has added a Viking experience to the offering, once more tying in local culture to this dining spot. It truly is a food destination adventure at The Glyde Inn. Local sourcing is a priority with much of their seafood being sourced from the shores and sea in view of the eatery.
