And we couldn't agree more!

WATCH:  This great Mayo man reviewed a Tipperary town, and it was epic

Irish social media comedian Garron Noone says Thurles is "absolutely fabulous."

The YouTube and TikTok creator from Ballina, Mayo featured the town on his popular Town Review series this week, giving it a 9.2 out of 10 rating.

Garron Noone has 3.67K subscribers on YouTube and 238.2K on TikTok. In addition to reviewing towns, Garron also reviews food and drink and even the Met Gala.

On this week's Town Review, Garron said he was impressed with the Thurles' shops, supermarkets, nature and historical sites.

And most especially, Pheasant Island.

Though he did have some concerns about the size of Tesco, on further exploration, he found it to be "very functional."

Holycross Abbey, the Cathedral of the Assumption and St Mary's also got a mention. As did the Source Arts Centre and library.

"An absolutely fabulous result from Thurles. This is what I like to see in a town. A bit of nature, a bit of history, modern conveniences-Pheasant Island. I'm absolutely thrilled with it," said Garron.

High praise indeed!
