The Plough Inn

About

The Plough Inn is set in the picturesque village of Royal Hillsborough and is straight off the main Belfast to Dublin road; so why not pull in and enjoy a friendly pint in the bar, a hearty pub lunch or a gastronomic delight in the evening.

The wonderfully traditional surroundings provide the perfect contrast to the thrills & spills of the modernistic Bar Retro experience next door. Featured in most leading food guides.

Live Entertainment - Each weekend at The Plough guests can enjoy acoustics sets from a variety of local musicians and our famous weekly quiz every Thursday.
