Monasterboice Inn in

Lovely place, service was attentive but had to ask for basic stuff like glasses, cutlery and napkins between courses. The food arrived quickly and the choice was ok on the lunch menu. All traditional choices really apart from chowder. I had lamb and it was very tough and hard to eat mostly. Roast potatoes were hard and not cooked enough. Starter vol au vont was nice with a lovely little salad and nice dressing. I came away pretty disappointed tbh given the reputation of the piece.

Good value for money. Nice place good atmosphere. Good service .

We recently called into the Monasterboice Inn without a reservation and were delighted to be accommodated. It had been quite some time since our last visit, and from the moment we walked in, the experience was exceptional. The food was as wonderful as we remembered. The Chicken Maryland is still an absolute standout dish—a classic that's perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. What elevated the evening, however, was our waiter, Niall. His service was nothing short of exceptional. He was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond to make our meal a fantastic experience. His professionalism and great personality made us feel incredibly welcome and well-cared for. Looking forward to a return visit. A huge thank you to Niall and the entire team for a memorable night.

Came here just the once but would definitely return. Staff and experience here were lovely and pleasant. Well worth stopping off at if in the area

Always amazing food and amazing staff

Monasterboice is an ancient Irish monastery in ruins, but with a historic charm that makes it highly recommended. Although much of the structure is deteriorated, it stands out for its impressive carved Celtic crosses—especially the Muiredach's Cross—and a tall round tower from the 10th century that still stands. It's a peaceful place with free admission, ideal for a short stop steeped in history and Celtic symbolism.

Lovely food and the staff are very attentive

Fantastic service, we'll be back

Thought the service ,staff and food excellent. I do,however,feel it is quite expensive compared to similar venus in the area. It would be a big factor in my future decisions to dine out here.

Another lovely meal and desert today lovely coffee too as expected. Once I had an issue with a meal and staff were very prompt sorting it out and even took it off the menu. I always enjoy my meal when I come here and staff are very helpful. Top marks 👌
