Bean & Batch Kenmare in Kenmare

07/04/2026: Eaten here multiple times... we keep coming back. Great atmosphere in a great town.

02/04/2026: Cosy winter dining at its absolute best ❄️🍽️ There’s something special about stumbling into the perfect restaurant on a cold, grey Irish evening — and The Lime Tree in Kenmare delivered exactly that. From the moment you step inside, you’re wrapped in warmth. Think rustic stone walls, soft lighting, and that intimate, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to stay all night. Pure Kerry magic 🇮🇪 We began with a complimentary bread basket — homemade sourdough and brown bread with olive oil and tapenade. Simple, comforting, and exactly what you need to ease into a winter meal 🫒🍞 The duck croquette was a standout — confit duck leg with Asian slaw, pickled plums, and plum sauce. Crispy on the outside, rich on the inside, with that sweet-tangy plum cutting through perfectly 🦆 Then came The Lime Tree’s famous sticky chicken wings — glossy, saucy, and completely fall-off-the-bone. You can tell why they’ve earned their place on the menu 🔥 For mains, the Duo of Kerry Lamb stole the show. A beautifully pink rack of locally sourced lamb alongside a mini shepherd’s pie, finished with confit garlic and thyme jus. Two styles, one incredible dish — and a perfect showcase of what Kerry does best. The pan-fried sirloin of Irish Hereford beef was equally satisfying — topped with crispy onions, confit shallot, and herb butter. Rich, classic, and exactly what you crave on a winter’s night. If you’re ever in Kenmare when the temperature drops, this is where you want to be
