Christy's in Arklow

We had dinner here over the weekend for my mams birthday. It may look small from the outside, but it's quite a big business. It has a bar and restaurant area. It's a nicely lit and decorated restaurant. There are plenty of food options for vegetarians and those who are gluten-free. I highly recommend their soup of the day and the house curry. Excellent value for money and great portion sizes. The staff were under pressure that day as it was busy, so I didn't get my starter until it was time for the main course. That aside, great quality of food, very clean and friendly staff. I give them a 4.5/5.

I was there yesterday on Sunday about 3 pm , lovely atmosphere and a nice little friendly crowd in there , I was there with my mother who has severe anxiety so I was worried about taking her in there but she was immediately at ease there was a lovely bar woman in there to thank for that , greeted us so kindly , offered us to sit wherever we liked and asked my mother if she wanted to watch anything on the tv , she also was joking around with the other groups sitting around the bar which gave the place a great vibe full of laughter , rare to see as usually when me and mam are out it’s very hostile in pubs and she panics and wants to go home…me and mam will definitely be back again !!:)

Good Food .. and at night on weekends great music

Best nightlife and food in Arklow. Owner is just amazing,

I've been there already few times since reopening. The first time I had steak and it was the best steak I've ever had! It was perfectly cooked and came with very good pepper sauce. Second time I had butternut squash soup, which was delicious, and fish and chips. I love their chunky chips but nothing beats homemade Guinness bread which comes with the soup! Bar and restaurant staff are very nice and friendly. So far this is my favourite spot in Arklow.

Great tasty food, just a confusion with paying drink and food seperate

Been here about 5 times since they opened up again. I like to go to restaurants alone. Service staff are really friendly. They don't come over too often so I was able to enjoy my food in peace. Dishes are tasty, plated nicely and fun!
