Service was ok.
Food quite poor. Nice enough chips. Had steak sandwich, steak was overcooked, very very thin, so I guess nearly impossible to cook it medium rare. Had to ask for pepper sauce as it didn't come with it.
Definitely the stingiest steak in a steak sandwich I have ever had.
Person serving us was apologetic about the steak being well done rather than medium rare. Due to the time constraints, I didn't send the sandwich back and eat and paid for it.
Mushroom vol-au-vent was tasty, but contained very little chicken. The pub must be in the serious cost cutting stage as prices are on par with everywhere else but very little protein for your money here.
Card machine didn't work (signs displayed so assume that machine doesn't work permanently). We had to pay for food and drinks separately even though everything was ordered and served together.
All in all, would not go back and regretted eating here.
Do not recommend for more than chips and a drink.

Lovely staff bus service a bit chaotic on Sunday. Food very good. Pity a glass of Chardonnay was so bad - undrinkable actually!

The restaurant was a very pleasant surprise; from the outside, it appeared little more than a simple pub, but as you enter and pass through the pub section, there is a whole another part of the establishment for sit-down meals.
The staff were well pleasant and attentive.
The meals were all delicious, and the portions were enormous - if you finish both your starter and the main dish, prepare to womble out of the place with a big satisfied smile on your face.
I can't personally attest for the pub section, but it appeared well popular.

We stopped in after a long walk around the castle. We were already hungry and wanted to try something new. The food was 50/50. The Atlantic Prawn Cocktail in a Homemade Marie Rose Sauce is not recommended.
The steak sandwich on ciabatta bread with onions and mushrooms, served with chips, was delicious.
We waited over 30 minutes for our order.

Was in Birr on holiday with my two sisters and decided we'd get something to eat here, lovely food, everything was cooked freshly, the young girl waiting our table was cheerful and kind. The decor was very interesting 🤔 but overall a very nice place to eat and reasonably priced.

Kellys is your classic Irish Bar experience without the Temple Bar prices or annoying tourists. Catherine is an absolute gem, the food is fantastic, and the location in the lovely town of Birr is a wonderful experience all around.
