Bayview Restaurant in Cill rónáin

Food was soooo good, atmosphere was fantastic and I had a lovely view of the bay hahaha (view of the bay... Bayview... get it?) Anyway I'd definitely recommend as the service and the food were excellent.

We thought we were going out for a nice meal, but this restaurant was disappointing. The food was fine, but not great. The service could have been better; for example, the candles were lit at some other tables, but not at ours… the floor was sticky, and the table wasn't completely sticky either. You'd expect this more from a café than a restaurant.

Having just come off the boat we were looking for a late breakfast to get the day started. Lovely seating outside with good view. Service was OK but the staff seemed distracted and not ready for custom. We had to call back a few times to ask for items that were forgotten etc. My colleague had a full breakfast, tea not included in price. The breakfast was a bit of a let down and the pudding was sliced thin to within an inch of its life.. what he thought was black pudding was actually cremated white pudding. And the tea!! Well apart from the fact the the tea was extra and not included it was presented as a tea bag in a small glass cup... I'm sorry but that was beyond scabby. Not even a small pot with the chance of a hot drop or a second cup. I had the pancakes with fruit and asked for bacon aswell, the bacon was an extra charge which I did not mind at all, that would be expected.. but for my €2 extra charge I got 2 shriveled up burnt, dried bacon bits and a complimentary piece of cress.... the fruit was forgotten but came very quick when I asked for it again.. it consisted of 3 little banana slices, about 4 tiny water melon pieces and I can't remember the other fruit. And then to add insult the pancakes were definitely not fresh made, but heated up shop bought pieces of leather. Was so disappointed with this breakfast, and so disappointed that it really was not value for money. Im a long time in hospitality, I enjoy eating out, but this just definitely felt like visitors were being taken for granted along with their money for a mediocre meal. Oh and the loos were a bit mank. Smelled of pee, needed a clean and a new refurb.

Bit hit and miss with everything. Food was average, poor choices for beer (2) and they didn't have the one I picked haha 😆. Great location, views fantastic so I wasn't too bothered about much. Servers and staff seemed to be mostly foreign nationals which seems a theme on the island as at least three other places were the same. Maybe locals don't want the work, who knows. The staff were efficient either way. Lovely place to sit out the front on a sunny day. Check the small print on menu, gratuity may be added automatically.

Arrived on the island GASPING for an iced coffee. This restaurant did not disappoint. Was served what I can only describe as heaven in a PINT GLASS!!!! Pint of ice latte yes. Also everyone working here is fab.

Service has been great throughout the country but Bay View was fabulous. So helpful! The food was fantastic. Recommend the garlic prawns and Summer salad. Very reasonable prices too.

Great find. Nice views, friendly staff, great food and drinks.

Great service and delicious food. While it’s a bit on the pricey side, it’s definitely worth it for the quality and experience. The view is absolutely stunning and adds to the overall charm of the place.

So delicious and lovely staff! Thank you for having us!
