The Quay, Restaurant and pub in Castres, France.
The Quay is a restaurant and pub establishment in central Castres combining French regional cuisine with Irish food and drinks. The venue features a mix of fishing-related decor and Irish elements throughout its interior spaces.
The establishment opened in 2001 and developed into a central gathering place in Castres. Its creation coincided with growing interest in Irish pubs across France, shaping how it blended local and Irish traditions.
The restaurant section, called En Marge, which means "on the margin", serves as a meeting point where locals and visitors gather to enjoy both French regional cooking and Irish pub classics in a relaxed setting.
The establishment is centrally located and opens daily from afternoon into the late evening hours. The restaurant section operates on a limited schedule, focusing on lunch and dinner service on select days.
The restaurant section's name, En Marge, was deliberately chosen to create a space apart from ordinary paths. Authentic touches like a genuine Guinness barrel and Celtic crosses throughout the interior give the pub its distinctive Irish character.
