Nancy’s Barn in Ballyliffin

Excellent food and coffee! The chowder was great but so too was every dish we ordered.

Been here so many times over the years, 10/10 every time.

Definitely worth a visit. The food arrived piping hot and was delicious, the service was fabulous, and the atmosphere felt warm and cozy from the moment we walked in.

Called in for breakfast, very cosy and welcoming. Staff were lovely and happy to provide gluten free options. Food arrived exactly as described, including gluten free options. Everything was lovely, fresh, tasty, not greasy like some breakfasts can be. Hash browns were gorgeous ! And very reasonably priced for the size of the portions and quality.

Fabulous food. I brought my kids here 2 years ago when we were last in Ireland and they demanded that we come back this time! Kids loved the chowder and their toasties. My wife is vegetarian and loved the goats cheese salad. Friendly staff and cosy atmosphere.

Warm atmosphere, amazing fish tacos and chowder and the kids swear they have the best ham and cheese toasties they have ever had :)

Everyone there was lovely. The food was delicious. The atmosphere was unbeatable. Would love to come back again.

We love the chowder, it's the best. And the desserts are delicious. Plus, the staff was very friendly.

Probably the best dining experience in the area. The service was excellent — friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout. Prices were fair, and the food overall was very good. We started with prawns and chicken wings, both of which were excellent. For mains, the steak burger was tasty and satisfying, while the goat’s cheese salad was unusual — the cheese came coated in a bread/potato-style batter, which may not be to everyone’s taste. That said, the quality of service and overall experience more than made up for it. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking for great food, good value, and genuinely friendly staff.

We were lucky to get a table at Nancy's Barn yesterday (18/8/25) and what a delightful experience it was. It was very busy but the staff were very efficient and friendly, nothing was too much trouble and we all had a lovely meal. We would highly recommend a visit.
