Byrnes in Castlebar legal

02/10/2026: I had wings in BarOne 8 years ago when passing through, I've been meaning to get back since, today I made it back and it didn't disappoint. I will definitely make it my business to get back soon for a full meal. 5* food, service & atmosphere

28/09/2026: Having recently moved to the area, we chose Bar One for Saturday evening meal out for two. We were not disappointed. We generally like to eat a little later and the place was hopping when we got there. A well selected menu and a large list of specials gave us much to contemplate. The winelist was well chosen and pricing was not crazy. When you can select a good wine without a ridiculous mark up, you are happy to pay for it. I was tempted by one special, the Hampshire Bacon chop. I figured if there is a good chef here, it will be more than just bacon and cabbage. It was! Cabbage cooked quickly is wonderful and the oven finish on the chop was meltingly delicious, with a cider sauce on the side. My wife had the tempura hake and was equally impressed. We somehow also squeezed in dessert and a digestif but were well satisfied. Staff were always attentive and never overbearing. Service was well paced for a nice night out. We noticed that as people left and food service finished, the bar/bistro was a little quieter, they should advertise it better as a bar after meals since the atmosphere and drinks selection would tempt me even when not out for a meal. 10/10 - very happy and we will be back regularly!
