Brian Boru on the Hill in Ballina

23/03/2026: Incredibly delicious food, large portions, friendly waiters.

22/03/2026: Excellent food. We arrived with a reservation as it was recommended to make reservation. Food was delicious, servers were friendly and helpful but simply too busy. Drinks arrived after food, no one had time to come back to ask if food was okay , nor to ask if we wanted more drinks, dessert or tea & coffee. Again server was super friendly but too busy. We were seated indoor but the external emergency exit was open to allow staff serve outdoor, it made the dining area uncomfortably cold. We asked if door could be closed but server explained she would close as soon as possible but this didn’t happen while we dined. I would visit again as the food was really good but I would not tolerate the same uncomfortable seating.
