Why The Bailey Bar and Eatery Serving Its Own Brew Makes Perfect Sense!
For years, The award winning Bailey Bar and Eatery has been a cornerstone of the Enniscorthy food and drink scene, offering patrons a welcoming atmosphere, five star service, and a menu that celebrates both comfort and creativity.

In the late 18th century, Enniscorthy was a thriving hub for malting and brewing. Hailed as “the granary of the kingdom for oats and barley,” at one time, there were 29 malthouses and multiple breweries operating within the town. The Maltings itself, was established as a dedicated malting house in 1895 by P.J. Roche..
Over the years, The Bailey Bar & Eatery has cultivated a loyal customer base who appreciate its unique character. The addition of their Bailey Brew adds another layer to its identity—one that is unmistakably “Bailey.” With each sip, patrons will experience flavors that align with the bar’s overall ethos, ensuring a truly immersive and memorable experience.
