Man Friday in Kinsale

Super nice waitress, who also welcomed us right away.

Right, so Man Friday—absolute gem. Walked in and it felt like stepping into a cosy coastal hideaway, all soft lighting and that old-school charm. I kicked off with huge juicy oysters, followed by scampi that was golden, crisp, and downright addictive. The back sole? Melt-in-your-mouth magic. And fair play to the staff—Natalie had the whole thing running like clockwork, no fuss, just good vibes. €96 well spent, no regrets. If you’re in Kinsale and not eating here, you’re missing a trick.

Good evening, Just to say a big thank you to all the staff for a great evening with our group from USA . Everyone thoroughly enjoyed , the food, wine ,service and overall atmosphere. See you soon - Mike O' Connell

Great sea view from dining area. Early bird prices

This is our second visit, and we were hoping it would be as good as the first. We were wrong... it was even better! The food was divine, fresh and perfectly prepared and presented. We booked ahead as they are always busy, and we got great service. There was such a buzz there, so many happy couples and families. Coming here when we visit Kinsale is our new tradition!

By far the best meal and experience we had in Ireland. Both the surf and turf were exceptional! The staff was attentive and the atmosphere was appealing. Parking is tricky. We tried to get a taxi but it never showed up.

Can’t say enough great things…referred to us by Francis where we stayed at Perryville House Hotel. Food and service top notch. Wonderful views of the Harbor from atop the hill.

I reallly enjoyed the food, if was reallly amazing and exceptional. However, the service was not that quite good. We were forced to pay a high value tip on the Bill for the service.

We had a fabulous meal in Man Friday, the staff, atmosphere and service were amazing, there was honestly nothing we could find fault with. The risotto was phenomenal and the lobster was very tasty!

Wow! Ashley has been incredibly accommodating for my dietary requirements. Visiting for the Kinsale Shark awards and she suggest GF options for me and they were incredibly delicious. Love you Ashley!!!
