We went for dinner over Christmas to Bacchus as we were staying in a hotel near by. Everything about the experience was top class. The table with the river views, the décor and the lovely warm welcome we got from the staff. We also had the early bird menu though it was just after 19.00.The food was beautiful, different and very tasty and great value for money with a three course early bird menu for €34.50. Also a bottle of new Zealand Sauvignon Blanc for under €30 is great value. We cannot wait to go back! This restaurant deserves all the business it gets and more. Highly recommend, you wont be disappointed

Bacchus has a nice atmosphere and good food overall. The pizza was excellent — full of flavour and perfectly cooked. The pasta carbonara wasn’t my favourite, so I wouldn’t recommend that dish, but everything else was enjoyable. Worth a visit, especially for the pizza!

Bacchus is a wonderful restaurant in Athlone. The food is exceptional, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming, and the service is excellent. The view of the River Shannon adds a special charm to the place. Highly recommended. I’ll definitely be back.

Food, service, atmosphere - everything was top class. Beautiful views of Shannon, warm and cosy inside, very friendly staff. I had seafood medley and my partner had a steak. Both soooo yummy and generous portions too. They have a few tables on the terrace too, with a 5* view. Highly recommend and will be back 👌
