The Old Fort Restaurant is in the newly restored main building of the Shannonbridge Fortifications. This wonderful building was constructed in 1810 (approx) as a bridgehead defence against Napoleon.

The Shannonbridge Fortifications are unique in Ireland and Britain. They are a remarkable example of artillery fortification of the Napoleonic period.



This unique building has had many uses over the last 200 years from being a home to the military, a family business and a family home during the 20th century.

It was finally restored for several years of hard work by the Moran family, as a wonderful restaurant. Currently operates, under new management of Parkers Restaurants, as a Fine dining Irish Restaurant
