Pig’s Lane unveils new cocktail menu

Published

on

Killarney's acclaimed underground speakeasy and whiskey parlour, Pig’s Lane, has launched its highly anticipated new cocktail menu, ‘Legends & Libations’.

Tucked beneath the town’s streets, the venue now offers a collection that blends masterful mixology with rich Irish folklore, creating a unique drinking experience for the summer season.
The ambitious new menu features 15 signature cocktails, each drawing inspiration from the legends, landscapes, and lore unique to Killarney.
Developed over a year, the collection aims to capture ancient spirits, misty lakes, and timeless myths within each glass.
From tales of O’Donoghue rising over Lough Léin to the adventures of Fionn Mac Cumhaill, the menu brings centuries of storytelling to life.
Each cocktail fuses art, flavour, and story, celebrating Kerry’s wild magic. Drinks like ‘Legend of Muckross Abbey’, ‘Brother Cudda’, and ‘O’Donoghue’s Departure’ directly reference local folklore.
The menu also includes cult classics,like the ‘Devil’s Punchbowl’, and a range of mocktails.
Owner, Gemma Ring said: "Our new menu has been a real labour of love. As a team, we’ve put tremendous thought into the finer details, creating a deep synergy between the flavours, the stories, and the design of each cocktail. Seeing it all come to life has filled us with immense pride, and we can't wait for our customers to experience it."

Killarney for Palestine recently held a sold-out screening of the Oscar-winning documentary ‘No Other Land’ at the West End School of Arts, raising €2,100 for Camp Breakerz.

The event, which took place on July 3, included two screenings, both of which were fully booked. Guests enjoyed cheese and wine before the shows.
‘No Other Land’ depicts the ongoing destruction in Masafer Yatta, a cluster of villages in the Southern West Bank, and shows the experiences of Palestinians under Israeli occupation. The film won in the Best Documentary category at this year’s Academy Awards.
The screenings were organised in association with the West End School of Arts.
All proceeds from the €25 tickets benefited Camp Breakerz Crew, a children’s charity based in Gaza that provides creative outlets through dance and is involved in food distribution programs in Nuseirat Camp and Deir-Al-Balah due to food shortages.
Sally MacMonagle, who recently spent time in Aida Refugee Camp in Bethlehem, also spoke at one of the screenings.

Fianna Fáil Spokesperson on Tourism, Michael Cahill TD, has highlighted Killarney’s suitability to host summit meetings of international Government Ministers during Ireland’s six-month European Presidency tenure in 2026.

Deputy Cahill believes Kerry’s available accommodation, food, and conference facilities are “second to none,” with Killarney as the central location.
“Visitors from every corner of the earth have been coming to Kerry for centuries now, to experience its beauty and serenity and have returned on many occasions because of the fabulous time they have enjoyed during their stay here,” said Deputy Cahill. “Where else would you want to bring the senior Government Ministers of all of our EU counterpart states, to experience Ireland, its customs and heritage?”
The Rossbeigh TD outlined various attractions available for visitors during downtime: “During their downtime, they can visit the Blaskets and Slea Head, Sceilg Mhichíl and the Ring of Kerry, Killarney’s Lakes, Gap of Dunloe, National Park and Sliabh Luachra, all of our glorious beaches from Ballybunion to Rossbeigh, Kells to Ventry, Whitestrand to Inch, Ballinskelligs to Cromane, Waterville to Derrynane.” He also cited Kerry’s golf courses, Listowel Writers Week, the Rose of Tralee, and Puck Fair as potential experiences.
Deputy Cahill confirmed he has raised this matter with An Taoiseach, Micheál Martin; An Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs, Simon Harris; and Minister of State for European Affairs, Thomas Byrne.
“If Killarney’s bid is successful in bringing the Heads of State to our county for meetings, conferences and functions, it will be a massive boost to the local economy in Killarney and also throughout the county,” added Cahill.”Iwill continue to push in the coming months for Killarney and Kerry to be included as bases for the rounds of meetings that are to take place from July 1 to December 312026.”
