Fig & Olive in Clonakilty

06/07/2025: We had such a lovely evening at Kirby’s The Whale’s Tail last night. I was dining with my daughter, and from start to finish the whole experience was second to none. The food was absolutely delicious, as were the cocktails! The atmosphere was warm and welcoming and the service friendly and attentive, a special thank you to Anne Marie and Denise who looked after us so well. It’s no wonder it’s a West Cork favourite. Highly recommend and looking forward to our next visit.

15/06/2025: Visited Whales Tail for Father's Day and it was exceptional. The menu has a good choice, but the food itself is piping hot, not warm, but hot. That's a plus in my books even before you taste it. The fish is excellent, local and fresh. Mocktails are a great addition to the menu, feels like a cheat treat. And the dads received chocolates as a special treat, a small but nice touch, it just shows the superb customer service. Thank you for a beautiful day.
