The Best Pizza and the best cold Beer in Maclean. Bruschetta needs some Fetta and balsamic glaze.

A great old hotel, icy cold beer & excellent pub grub, at very reasonable prices!
3 Star Review by Luke Diggins
Beds were comfy and clean, pillows were nice. Room was reasonably spacious. Old decor and lacking an iron. Everything was clean and tidy and there was minimal road noise and no other noise from guests. Would go back.
