"Every Burns Supper has its own special form and flavour, though there are probably more similarities than differences among these gastro-literary affairs. Individual tastes and talents will determine the character of your Burns Supper. Some celebrants may contribute the composition of original songs or poems; some may excel at giving toasts or reciting verse; while others may be captivating storytellers. A particular group of celebrants will, over time, develop a unique group character which will distinguish their Burns Supper celebration from every other."

The Burren Burns Supper, held every January since 2010 (held at The Skellig 2010-2014), has matured over the years, and boasts its own unique character. How is this Burns Supper different from all other Burns Suppers?

• It is organized and presented by the community, for the community.
• There is no cover and no prix fixe (we do pass the hat for the waitstaff).
• There is a full vegetarian menu, including haggis.
• It features the world's only (to our knowledge) "kosher haggis", complete with its very own "Address to the Kishke".
• A Burns-themed pub sing follows the Supper.
