Hunters Rest in Mitchelstown

Friendly local pub with plenty of options for food and a good selection of drinks. The staff were so kind and welcoming. We will be back!

Today, May 4. 2026, we had wings for starter, Fish'n'Chips and Prawn stir fry for mains and espresso as dessert. Everything was fresh and fingerlicking good. The staff is very friendly, the food sizzling hot and the service realy fast. We'll absolutely be back!

Nothing but wonderful things to say! The food was amazing, the staff were all so kind and friendly. The sauce on the chicken wings was so good. I love a sauce that builds flavor on the tongue the longer it's there! Spot on! The lamb was so tender and perfectly cooked. Even the flat bread was clearly made in-house and included balanced herb flavors and scents. Amazing restaurant! I cannot give it a higher recommendation! (Consider adding a tzatziki sauce option, I think that profile would compliment some of your meat dishes splendidly!)

Had Sunday lunch on 12th April by myself. Very comfy restaurant, the staff are so friendly and attentive. Had turkey and ham, it was delicious, the gravy was lovely. Nice variety of veg came with it too. Then I had a brownie which was also fantastic. Nice and crunchy on the outside and soft in the middle. Plenty of ice cream and cream with it. Sorry, I didn’t take any pictures, I was too hungry! But it was presented well. It’s a nice place, plenty of seating, not cramped together. Relaxed atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

The ambience and the food in here is amazing. Staff are friendly and attentive. Highly recommend. Love the soda bread they provide with your meals.

We ordered sea pasta, burgers, onion with garlic, chickens basket and everything was really tasty! Thanks for nice service !

Had a great meal there last night - 8 of us and food served quickly , hot and delicious. Great menu selections - new owners seem to really care and are very friendly . Kid friendly - enough options for every taste , would go back again today !

Went to the hunters for lunch today with my friend it was quiet, staff were pleasant I ordered the starter of seafood chowder The waiter asked me if I would like to start her or a main portion. I told him the starter size. My friend decided to have roast beef,I also had a coffee. My friend paid for the meal. But when we went outside she said to me it was a little bit more expensive than it should have been so she went back in to query this. She hadn't been given a receipt. The staff member at the bar told her I had been given the main course size seafood chowder. She told him I had only ordered the starter one but he said she was given the main one and he wouldn't refund her the balance. She came out and she was a bit shocked We both knew I had ordered the starter option and there was €6 in the difference and to be honest they should have been apologizing and giving the balance back. The so-called main course chowder was a regular size bowl that I would have gotten when ordering other chowder starters and one slice of brown bread it certainly wasn't worth the value of €15. The food was lovely but I have to say I thought how they handled this situation was terrible.

Superb. food, ambience and service
