This month’s pub is Farren’s Bar, Ireland’s Most Northerly Bar, located in scenic Malin Head in County Donegal. Established in 1825, this family-run establishment is walking distance from several local landmarks including the Wee House of Malin, a small cave on the shore where legend says a holy man once lived, and Bamba’s Crown, Ireland’s most Northerly Point. Farren’s welcoming atmosphere is inviting to all – visitors will enjoy talking over a pint with the Donegal locals – the friendliest folk in the country. The staff are also always happy to share their knowledge of the local sights including fishing spots and walking routes.

Visitors will notice a Yoda mural on the side of the pub – something the owners painted to commemorate a special time in the pub’s recent history. Back in 2016, Malin Head had quite the buzz, as the cast and crew of Star Wars: The Last Jedi descended on the tiny town to film. Farren’s was a welcome stop for the many fans hoping to catch a glimpse of the filming, and the excitement truly peaked when Mark Hamil (aka Luke Skywalker) himself stopped in for a few pints!
