We stayed last April and it was truly superb. It's hard to find a good selection of food other than burgers and fish and chips in Ireland, but at the Glyde we were impressed by the choice and quality of the dishes. The razor clams and calamari were excellent. The sea view was incredible. The waiters were all very friendly, and we really appreciated having a French waitress, she was very attentive to us, translating the menu and explaining each dish. I highly recommend the Glyde Inn.
Always enjoy stopping off here - and it has had a bit of a renovation since my last visit, and is all the better for it. Still has a nice atmosphere with friendly staff.
Our group was looking for a nice place for a seaside lunch between Belfast and Dublin. An internet search turned up The Glyde Inn and what a tremendous bit of Irish luck it was! Delicious meal and drinks, impressive service, and the perfect location. You can’t miss with a visit.
I find the food seasoning pleasant, the menu fresh but the prices are somewhat high, the waiters take a long time to reappear and therefore the drinks also take a long time, as soon as you finish eating is when the drinks appear, the wait for the food also takes a long time.
01/06/2025: I can’t recommend this place enough! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the staff are truly exceptional friendly and dedicated to making your experience memorable. The highlight of my visit was undoubtedly the Fish Burger. After over 12 years in Ireland, I can confidently say it was the best I’ve ever had perfectly cooked, bursting with flavor, and simply unforgettable. I’ll definitely be returning!
19/02/2025: I come here 2-4 times per year. Great scampi and prawns. Fish batter undercooked which is not normal as the food is generally great. BE VERY CAREFUL if you are using a credit or debit card not from Ireland. In every restaurant I have ever been in I get charged in my currency or asked if I want the conversion rate. I was NOT asked here. Entered my pin and then the person sorting the bill used the conversion rate in the quickest way possible before I could say anything. Outcome I get a conversion rate at 8.9% versus the 17% my bank gives me. This is obviously policy and not the fault of the staff member who was very nice. I will not be back as it has completely spoilt a family meal.
