Plan your visit

What's actually here for the family

Be clear with the kids first: no rides, no wristbands, no amusements. What you do get is a characterful old railway station turned café, with original-feel touches, vintage photos and railway memorabilia that give little ones something to point at and bigger kids a real local story. It's an all-ages stop with no height or age limits to worry about. Toddlers manage easily in a calm sit-down setting, and the generous, no-fuss menu keeps fussy eaters happy. Treat it as the food-and-history half of a wider day out in the Clogher Valley rather than a destination park.

The story

About the station

Augher station opened on 2 May 1887 on the Clogher Valley Railway, a narrow-gauge line that ran roadside through south Tyrone linking Tynan and Maguiresbridge. The line closed on 1 January 1942, but the station building survived and has since been restored as a family-run café.

Today the old station keeps its railway character, with vintage photographs and memorabilia on the walls telling the story of the Clogher Valley line. It's earned a steady reputation locally for home cooking, generous portions and friendly service.
