Praise for McCARTHY'S BAR: 'McCarthy is a hilariously funny writer.' - The TimesMcCarthy mines a rich seam of humour as he finds himself on the receiving end of some warm but unsophisticated hospitality. But then, he could probably make a phone book funny. - Independent on SundayDon't panic - this is not the same story you hear from every tourist you meet...This book will make you laugh out loud through recognition and embarrassment. - Irish NewsOne of the funniest writers around. If you were asked to choose an ideal travelling companion, you would put Pete McCarthy near the top of your list. But if he doesn't happen to be available, McCARTHY'S BAR is the next best thing. - Yorkshire Evening PostHilarious, informed and intelligent...a wonderful debut. By the end, we, too, would like to move to Ireland. - Amazon.co.ukAn engaging, evocative book. Four out of five stars. - Daily Mail
