The Mill Bar & Restaurant is the restaurant and bar at the Riverside Hotel, on the bank of the Garavogue River in Sligo town. It's open to hotel residents and non-residents alike, serving bar food and Irish classics from 4pm to 9pm on weekdays and from 1pm to 9pm at weekends.
Laid back dining with a touch of Irish charm, in a bright and spacious room with river views. We source most of our ingredients and drinks locally - our steaks and burgers come from Sherlock's, the Sligo butcher, and our cod is fried in batter made with Sligo-brewed Lough Gill beer.

ponchoreal | 02 / 2026I frequent the bar restaurant for a bite to eat and a pint a few times a year and it never disappoints. Staff are very good and helpful a great pint of Guinness and always great food. Great to have a vegetation burger on offer and it was very tasty and serves was good even though under pressure that evening. I would highly recommend
Richéal B | 01 / 2026Fantastic dinner and overnight stay in the heart of Sligo!
We had the most amazing meal by Chef Graham, expertly prepared and presented. Couldn’t keep room for dessert, even though I heard the panna cotta was heavenly. The staff and quaint ambience of the surrounds were so welcoming and attentive throughout our stay. Rooms were clean, comfortable, spacious and beautiful views! A great find and great value and will have to go back soon!
