Killarney Tucka Shop
A great supporter of the paragliding group in Killarney is the local take
away shop called the Killarney Tucka Shop. You can enjoy good old fashioned
burgers at a good old fashioned price, while you're adventuring through the
Killarney district or coming back from an epic XC flight. They also do great
pizzas every night and it's best to order in advance and they will even
deliver it to the pub!
