Welcome to Aunty Lena's & Adare Court House
Welcome to Aunty Lena’s Bar & Adare Courthouse situated in Adare Village, County Limerick
arguably the prettiest village in Ireland.
Established in 1806 by the Chawke family Aunty Lena’s has famously served the needs of its patrons with great success keeping the bar as a focal part of the community, and serving both locals and visitors from all over the world.
In 2018 Charlie Chawke also took the abandoned Adare Courthouse under his wing, annexing it to Aunty Lena’s and completely refurbishing an historic building so linked to Adare since 1836, but forgotten for over 30 years. The Adare Courthouse now has new life breathed into it and patrons can enjoy a visit to the bespoke restaurant, bar, and Courthouse museum, which can also be used as a themed function room.
A visit to our museum is an absolute must for any history enthusiasts!
Our highly skilled kitchen team serve delicious traditional Irish food all day, from 9am until 10pm Monday to Sunday. We try to source as much of our produce as possible from local farmers and producers to ensure that our food offering is fresh and seasonal, and served to you with the intrinsic Chawke level of superior service and attention to detail.
Our bar menu includes a wide-ranging selection of beers, wines, spirits, liquors and soft drinks, and the very finest Irish whiskeys for you to enjoy in comfortable surroundings with prompt and friendly service.
Our High Definition TVs provide our customers with the perfect place to view all of the major sporting events (especially Munster Rugby, and GAA Limerick & Adare matches) live, in full comfort and with a passionate spectator atmosphere that you have to experience to believe.
Music is food for the soul, and we have live traditional music sessions every Friday night where audience participation is a must and people travel far and wide to experience the Lena’s Craic!
We at Aunty Lena’s take great pleasure in ensuring that your experience with us whether it is in a personal or corporate capacity, as an individual or as part of a group, consistently meets your needs and exceeds your expectations.
