New-ish to Enniscorthy!

DO'Carlo/Wex

New-ish to Scalderville.
Have a Base in Shingan on Milehouse Rd. that I can use since 2006 but don't cross-over County Border too much (see my Handle!) & this first time this year visiting!
Any recomendations what to do.
Kavanaghs the Nearest Pub to Me is it? The One oposite Petitts. Or is that Doyles?
Use-dta occasionally frequent White House as my Gran lived Opposite.
Also Antique cos I know One of Owners (we use-dta work together for a few years start of decade).
Need something to do.
Is it safe-enough to cycle around the town traffic-wise during day?
Gotta go to Kennys to get lights & where would I get a High-Vis Jacket in town?
Anything else of interest I should take a note of?

Yeah Doyles (aka the rasher counter) is the one opposite petitts, it's a place for the more discerning gentleman, especially the bar! God only knows what you'd see in there from time to time. The lounge isn't too bad though. For an extra few minutes walk though I'd say you could head to the usual spots like Rackards or D-bar. If you like a quiet pint with a mixed crowd then Stamps in Market Sq., the Antique or Holohan's are good spots. Depends really on what crowd you like in a pub.

Fair play to you going cycling in Enniscorthy with all them feckin hills. Wouldn't be too bad though heading out towards the Still on a bike though. I think there's a pub out there too where you can rehydrate the body after a cycle. You don't see that many cyclists in the town but if cycling is your thing then you could look at joining up with the slaney cycling club. if you go to Kenny's they can tell you all about it. The club usually head out for a spin every Sunday morning.

Judgement Day

Hayes and the Antique (for Guinness & Rugby) are my two favourites. The next best thing in the town is the railway station - the means of escape!
