A friendly, simple two-room pub in the same family for 60 years and, as the name suggests, with a fine vista over the Mourne Mountains. Very popular with walkers. There is an old panelled counter and basic shelving. Fine old mirror advertising 'Millin & Rankin's High Class Mineral Waters, Belfast'. The lounge bar has changed little since the 1960s when it was decorated with a painting of Carlingford Lough. But the Mourne View is more than just a pub - you can also buy petrol at the filling station or even arrange a funeral with the undertaking side of the business!
