Buffalo Boy in Carrick-on-shannon

Fantastic quality of food and brilliant service here. The fillet steak is beautiful and always cooked to perfection. Gorgeous cocktails and good wine menu. Great vibe too.

EXCELLENT * 10/10 * CAN'T WAIT TO RETURN * Had a table booked for party of five friends on Saturday eve. Arrived 20 mins early and were given a very friendly welcome by our server, Niamh. We were kindly led to a free table out front for drinks as our reserved table wasn't ready. Drinks menu is really extensive so we had a great selection. Had a great pint of Guinness and a G&T later. We were later invited to dine at the table where we were waiting/having drinks, if we wished and we decided to do so ( the atmosphere out front was warm and relaxing). Niamh did a great job explaining the menu and double-checked all our orders once we completed them. Food came out relatively quick and we were all very happy with it. Two of us had burgers and fries, two had small chicken caeser salads, and one had fish and chips. Couple sides of fries, and pepper sauce. All delicious, if I had to be picky and critique anything, I'd have liked the fries a little drier/more crispy. We got our bill afterwards and couldn't believe that for a main course plus 2 x drinks each, the price (including almost 20 euros tip), was only €36 each! Niamh kindly split the bill for us, and then explained all the local options for us to continue our evening in the local bars etc. Absolutely 10/10 service, friendly staff, excellent food l... would 100% recommend to friends. As the only Leitrim native in our group, and having not been out in Carrick in over a decade or two, I felt very proud of our county town and the fabulous dining experience we were given 💚💛 Well done Buffallo Boy!

Fab place. Fab food. Fab staff. Keep up the good work Guys. 👌👌

Food was delicious, service was prompt and good. Will definitely be back

Very good and tasty food!!! 👍👍👍 Good service 5✨️

Well this was my first time to use the OpenTable app. I would normally ring or call in to book a table. But decided to use the app when it popped. Which was very user friendly. We arrived for our booking for 6 as planned. We knew we were out in the terrace/garden area. Which was fine. I have eaten out there before & it's always be lovely. On this occasion we were lead through this area up a stairs on to a balcony type area where our table was set out. There was another smaller table also there but not set . It was very cold & the smoking area door was about 10 feet behind us. The door was open & you could taste the smoke. All of us are non smokers so had never been in this area before. We did ask the waitress if it was possible to move as it was very cold. She was lovely very pleasant & said she would check. When she returned she advised us that the manager would be out to us shortly. I notice a few people I knew at a table in the normal terrace/garden area on my way in . So went to say hello. they did ask when we were sitting & when I said we were up the stairs. They said they never knew there was seating up there either. I did ask them when they booked & they said ages ago in the first week of December. ( I booked the 3rd of november) Anyway I returned to my seat & not long after the manager arrived. I asked if there were any other area or seating available as it was very cold & we could taste the smoke. But she said no. I did say I had booked before other people down below. She replied booking did not guarantee where you would be seated. I asked so if I rang up or called in as what I normally do .would I have a better chance of not getting this table again. She replied probably. I then asked her if she could Check my lunch time booking for Christmas eve as I would cancel it of it was here. Which she did and said no it was upstairs. She did say she would turn up the heating. On 3 further occasions somebody at out table asked a member of staff who was either bringing something to our table or carrying something out the back through the smoking area if we could have the heating turned up. Eventually it was turned up. The door to the smoking area was left open most of the time & we had to get up in turns to close it. There was a breeze blowing through the smoking area as there was fence with a gate left open . Our meal was lovely ; the waitress was so nice. It's just a pity our dining experience was tanted by constant flow of people walking by our table to smoking area leaving the door behind us open & the taste of smoke. We have dined here previously & always enjoyed it. Disappointed on this occasion. Might be an idea not to seat people so close to the smoking area.

I went here with 3 of my friends for my 18th and it was exceptional! The service was probably the best I've ever gotten- and I'm saying that as a server! The girls were so friendly and chatty, made sure we felt welcome. Food was absolutely delicious, very big portions. I would highly recommend

Lovely restaurant with great food. We particularly loved the shared platter. The hot wings were definitely spicy but super delicious.

Great food- table staff were excellent, really friendly and efficient- would recommend eating here

Upon arrival, we were told there was no available seating inside but there was space in the outdoor seating area. First thoughts were no but when taken out to view, was very happy. Beautiful seating area with at least 5 gas heaters. Comfy and toasty. Regarding food and service. 100%. We both had the signature burger with pulled pork. Amazing flavours. We had three members of staff tending to us during our visit. Helpful, professional and also witty. Would we return? Most definitely
