Kalbos Cafe at The Uillinn in Ballydehob

23/03/2026: A wonderful experience with friends. The quality and finesse of the dishes were remarkable. Cooking and flavors were perfectly executed. The wine pairing was excellent value. The dessert was outstanding, as was the mushroom and langoustine appetizer.

06/03/2026: The tasting menu was phenomenal. Every course was great, and several courses — a preserved strawberry sorbet with a pepper foam palate cleanser; a langoustine and caviar bite; an incredible rice pudding with rosemary sherbet dessert—were amongst the best dishes I’ve been served anywhere in Ireland. Service was warm and superb, and the space is cosy and charming. Very worth a journey to try it, the best and most interesting meal I’ve been served in Ireland in years.
