Frank Owens' Bar in Limavady

After hearing so much about the Guinness servings here. I just have to visit. Am only about ten miles away so not far, haven't been here before. Well where do I start. Firstly the barman was on top of his game, friendly, helpful and informative without being overwhelming 👍... had three pints of lovely Guinness, each one with its personalised (Owens) touch of class flavour and history, can't remember getting anything like it before, amazing place and brilliant stout ✨️✨️

Great service, drink and amazing atmosphere. Super busy at weekends so get there early

Pub on causeway road for your game of thrones door

Absolutely loved this small and very cosy pub. The landlord Damian and Lester made us very welcome and provided us with a lovely cheese board. Very popular with the locals and tourists alike with a number of "rooms" for sitting having a chat supping a beer and taking in the atmosphere. The pub is home to a beautiful Game of Thrones door. There is on street parking right outside and a BBQ area out back. I hope to return to sample the BBQ produce in the summer. Make sure you take the time to vist this pub on your vist to the Sperrin's, the North Coast, Derry/Londonderry. You will not be disappointed.

The place is spectacular and very cozy. We went to see the GOT door and the owner explained everything to us in great detail. He also recommended a lot of places to see in the area. It's a great place to have a quiet beer.

cozy atmosphere, open-minded audience

Traditional old Irish pub. Monday was music night you bring your own instruments and play. Great drink and atmosphere 👍

Lovely authentic bar with a great atmosphere.

1 of the best bars about with proper pints. Generally good atmosphere although some times a little over crowded.

It's Frank Owens! They invented Google.

Excellent traditional bar. Great staff and will be back.

Lovely little pub. We visited to see the Game of Thrones door, stayed for three pints.

This is such a great place to belly up to the bar and make new best friends. Very warm and cozy and the bartender is just so hospitable. A must visit if you are in town.

Traditional bar. Great atmosphere and good service.

Great selection of whiskey and good atmosphere. There's also a Game of Thrones Door

Love this place! Definitely worth a visit especially to see the game of thrones door !

nice pub with lovely atmosphere freindly helpful staff parking round the corner and a game of thrones door ideal refreshment stop

Super friendly staff and a great music session on a Monday night. Check out the GOT door as well. Great pints!

Fun Pub to be in with a pint of Guinness in hand 👍

Not the biggest bar in the world but the Guinness is amazing. Well worth a visit

Only bar in Town staff not to bad.

We had our wedding after party at Frank Owens. Great spot. Nice cool traditional bar out the front and then a good spacious area out the back for functions, music etc.

Love this pub. Always a friendly crowd

This was my pub 30'ish years ago. Took my daughters here and they enjoyed it. Has hardly changed, still a great pub for atmosphere and Guinness. Brought back a lot of Fon memories. Glad to hear it's still in Frank's family...

First class staff very good 👍🏻

Top notch.... Best pint of Guinness in northern Ireland and a friendly, historic and fun bar to spend a few hours.

Great pup. Superfriendly bar man and customers. Glad we came. Will defo be back. Bev. Lorna.yvonne. (belfast)

OK. Has the GoT door, not enough nice outside space for me

Great to see this gem open again. Staff are sooo friendly

Always a highlight when I am in Limavady

Lovely old style pub with friendly service and even more chatty locals and great Guinness. Visited again on a cold winter's afternoon and the roaring fire was really welcoming but the welcome from the landlord was even warmer.

Brilliant atmosphere and excellent staff dont miss out on this one

Best pint of Guinness in Limavady

Top local bar I always visit when at home

We made a quick stop at Owen's Bar to visit one of the 10 Game of Thrones doors. We were greeted very friendly and were allowed to sign the guest book. Would have liked to stay longer

A real cozy place to drink and very friendly barceeper. Had a Great time

Very cozy traditional Irish pub. Unlike most bars in America, there are no distracting TVs or loud music, so you end up talking, joking, and trading stories just like God intended.

Friends atmosphere and lovely staff

Great value and good company can't wait to go back again Damian is the best host

We went the to see the Game of Thrones door, and we found one of the best Irish bars ever!!! The bar is over 250 years old, they used to bottle Guinness with their name (we had some memorabilia) the bartender and the locals were ultra friendly, we were talking and drinking for a while as if we were from there. Super welcoming! Great great pub! No wonder they got chosen to get one of the GOT doors! Definitely worth detouring!

Always good craic in an intimate atmosphere, brilliant

Wow what a place , really friendly and welcoming

You cannot fall off with a visit to Owen's, Damien optimises the Northern Irish Landlord for hospitality & yarn spinning + all additional trimmings!....the Guinness is exceptional by the way, best I consumed over my 2 weeks in Ulster!

The craic is always great in the corner bar, if you have never been you must go !!!

The best and longest established pub in limavady great craic with friendly welcoming staff!

So we took a stop into this traditional Irish pub to view one of their Game of Thrones doors, made from one of the trees from The Dark Hedges, and it was one of the best places we visited during our whole trip. The bar man was very genuine and we had a great talk about the series itself. If you're lucky enough you may even bump into one of the extras from the series, as we did. If you're reading this I would definitely recommend popping in for a pint or two and taking in some of the local knowledge, especially if you're a GOT fan.

Great social place and a regular hangout. Friendly locals and good atmosphere.

Really lovely barmaid very cheerfull and friendly

Love this bar lovely staff great atmosphere

Very friendly landlord. Great interior. Love it

Visiting from New York, stopped in here because of nice reviews. Owens did not disappoint. Very friendly barkeep, nice chat with other customers, Guinness smooth and creamy.

Was instantaneously smitten with this place and the 3rd gen Owens that was the barkeep the night I came in. I had found out about this place because I was on the Game of Thrones Door tour and they have Door#5. The Door itself is incredible and well worth the visit, but more importantly, this pub is very old school Irish and you will legit feel like you stepped back in time! Terry, the 3rd gen Owens, running it when I came in, was so incredibly gracious to not only share the story behind their door, but shared the amazing family history behind the pub including his grandfather who started it! The building it is in was built in 1852 as well...so if you are a history nerd like me, you will love it for that fact alone! They have a great draught beer selection and I was so happy to grab a very reasonably priced pint and sit in front of the fireplace (yes, they have a fireplace!) on a very chilly Limavady evening and chat w/some of locals. If I ever find myself in County Derry again, I will be making a beeline for this place!

Great bar one of the best in the hole of Ireland. If you are in county Derry you must call in and get a beer.

Celebrating Saint Patrick's day on the best Pub in town

Its ok.. needs clean up and modernise toilets and the entire place.

Great atmosphere, proper Irish pub

We had the most amazing time during our recent trip to Derry. One of the most memorable was our visit to Owen's Bar. The warm welcome not only from the blazing fire but from the other customers and the wpnderful staff! The 'feel'is actually indescribable, you have to experience the energy coupled with the atmosphere, the beautiful homely surroundings, the Lord of the Rings door was an extra bonus. Everything about out time at Owen's Bar demonstrated what hospitable, kind, welcoming and fun people the Irish are. Frank would indeed be proud of the way his legacy continues. My God daughter saw shown how to pull a pint of guiness and as she couldn't drink it, much to my pleasure; I did! Sitting in the back room sharing fish and chips from across the road, laughing and talking with complete strangers was a touching experience. We were the only ones from London and felt our other differences were embraced and in fact celebrated. Thank you to everyone who made our visit to Owen'Bar so very special. I would return in a heart beat, to simply sit in the back room, in front of the fire surrounded by history, lovely people and drinking another pint of guiness! A must visit, we made friends who I feel we will keep in touch with, what a heart warming time. I know Frank can RIP with the knowledge that the family feel and love radiates through the pub. Thank you Mark, not just for the fish and chips but for blessing us with wonderful memories of beautiful Ireland.

One of the best public houses in Northern Ireland.

Simply one of the best pubs in NI. Old style and good craic. Very good Guinness.

Staff are so lovely they make you feel so comfortable one of the nicest bars to go to and the pints are great x

Landlord was outstandingly welcoming and gave amazing service. Locals were very friendly and didn't mind us happily taking pictures of the Game of Thrones door number 5. Definitely recommend a visit. 👍☘️

Home from home! Always welcome, always great craic.

The best. Everyone is made welcome. Friendly atmosphere.

We were just off the plane at Belfast, this was our second stop of the day after the dark hedges. There is a game of thrones door here, we ended up getting to 6 of the 10 that were scattered around Northern Ireland pubs, and I can say this one is the best.... The design of the door was stunning, but what also made it better was the owner of the pub a really nice chap, he came over to us greeting us warmly as we were taking pictures of the door, he proceeded to educate us about how the doors were made and the moment he found out his lovely little pub was chosen to host one, it was a fascinating story, one I would recommend to anyone, he was so friendly that he offered to get us to follow him in his car to a more scenic road to our next destination, he was a really nice guy, I will definitely be heading back to this place when I return to Northern Ireland.

Cozy and historic bar. Great craic.

Great wee pub friendly and helpful staff

A really friendly place - went to see the Game of Thrones door and met the owner - a charming man who took the time to sit and chat with us for a while. A marvellous place for a quiet pint!

Lovely atmosphere and very welcoming. A traditional pub with several small cosy rooms. PS: Don't miss the door made from the wood of the trees of the dark hedges!!!!

Northern Ireland has quickly become the home of Game Of Thrones with fans flocking here to spot the famous filming locations. So, after Storm Gertrude destroyed trees at the Dark Hedges, which served as the backdrop for the Kingsroad in the hit HBO series, an idea was formed to turn the disaster into a tourism opportunity. Ten intricately carved doors, depicting moments inspired by the sixth season, were carved from trees blown down in the storm. Here: One of the most iconic locations, Downhill Beach is an 11km stretch of sand and surf located on the Causeway Coast and used in Season 2 Episode 1 as Dragonstone. This magnificent location is home to Mussenden – a tiny temple perched dramatically on a 120ft cliff top, high above the Atlantic Ocean. Binevenagh marks the western extent of the Antrim Plateau and was the shooting location for the Dothraki Grasslands in Season 5 Episode 10.

We went to see GOT gate #5 and thought it was closed. Then someone, we think it's the owner, invited us in. In short, we have been delighted with the kindness and closeness of the people we found there, including clients. Essential.

An incredible pub, very quaint. The owner at the bar was the friendliest person I had the pleasure of meeting in all of Ireland. Thank you for the stickers. It's worth a visit and a little chat!

Very good bar for a drink and good banter

Traditional bar with good atmosphere and good beer

One of very few pubs left that has pleasant staff and customers.
