14/06/2025: Amazing!!!!
I visited here recently and what a fabulous visit.
I was seated on arrival and served very quickly - were ordered two burgers and they were gorgeous, the bacon ranch fries were 10/10.
The churros were divine and perfect to share, the millshakes also gorgeous.
All in all a lovely casual meal and great value!
07/06/2025: A Hidden Gem That Feels Like a Roadside Dream
I was just passing through Limerick, with three hours of driving ahead of me that evening, when I stumbled upon Locke Burger Castletroy —almost by chance—just a short walk from the Castletroy Park Hotel where I was staying, and perfectly on the way to the motorway toward Dublin.
From the moment I stepped inside, I felt like I had taken a brief detour into small-town America. Maybe the designers had something else in mind, but for me, the atmosphere was pure Americana in the best way—cozy, full of character, and delightfully immersive. Everything, from the sturdy wooden tables to the friendly uniforms of the staff, felt thoughtfully curated to create an experience, not just a meal.
I ordered a smash burger and Parmesan fries, and honestly, I don't have enough words to do them justice. The bacon was perfectly crispy, the burger had this wonderful crunch on the outside and was unbelievably juicy on the inside. And the pickles—oh, the pickles! There were just enough of them to add the perfect tangy balance, more than I've ever seen in a burger, and it worked brilliantly. Every bite was a burst of flavor, and I had to consciously slow myself down to savor it like the culinary masterpiece it was.
To top it off, the prices were refreshingly reasonable, making it a pleasure to leave a generous tip.
If you're ever in Limerick, don’t even think about leaving without visiting Locke Burger Castletroy. It’s not just a meal—it’s a moment of joy, a taste of something special, and a reminder that even a quick stop can turn into a great memory.
