Established 1806 · Moneyreagh, Co. Down

A proper country pub, two hundred years in the making

All-day food, Sunday lunch worth the drive, and function rooms for the days that matter. Fifteen minutes from Belfast, four from Roselawn.

Our story

Steeped in history, still the local

The Auld House has stood in the heart of rural County Down since 1806. Moneyreagh puts us surprisingly close to Belfast city centre, and a network of country roads brings Comber, Newtownards and Hillsborough within easy reach.

Food and drink are served all day, every day. The cooking runs from seasonal favourites to a few dishes of our own. If you have a food intolerance, tell your server when you arrive.
