Oarsman in Carrick-on-shannon

Fantastic food, service and atmosphere, we will always return, I highly recommend

Very accommodating for our party of 9 and amazing food and atmosphere

I didn't l8ke it. Probably visited at the wrong time (Saturday at 8pm) Staff were fussy without being efficient and were certainly not friendly. Please needed a deep clean. Didn't have food, dont think they do any. Apologies, I meant to give you NO star, which I have now amended. I/We spent €50/€60 on drinks only. I confirm your accepting of my point re staff being (fussy but not efficient) Regarding the food we didn't have, I went had drinks and offered my opinion on that and its cleanliness. I will return shortly and happy to re engage with the reviewing process. If you read any of my reviews you will notice my focus on staff and cleanliness.

The food was excellent. We haven't had such good food in a long time. Luckily, the restaurant was recommended to us. There was even live music. We'd be happy to go back.

Excellent food and service with background music. Authentic cuisine, very friendly staff, and a very comfy environment. Highly recommend!!

The food was nice, but the service was not the best. One of us has an allergy, we told them but they couldn't remove everything of that ingredient. They also forgot a beverage. The music was nice but too loud.

Class food and great service highly recommended

The monkfish was great. Mr John Crow played the guitar like no other with fingertip skills and great feeling for tempo, volume and choice of music. He made our day end in the best of manners. 😃👍

Visited at the weekend & enjoyed superb food. It was Saturday night & the place was buzzing. It was definitely a full house but the staff were attentive & super friendly. We enjoyed two starters, goats cheese, made locally I believe, & some monkfish cheeks with a fennel salami. Both were delicious, the monkfish especially moreish. Hope it’s on the menu next time I visit! Opted for the pork belly & a vegetarian main course. Husband gave his pork belly the thumbs up. My veggie dish was also a winner. A winning combination of textures & flavours. Didn’t have room for dessert this time round. But spotted the doughnuts going to another table & again, hope they’re still there next time we visit! Nice selection of wines, the white we chose, Austrian I believe, went down a treat. No hesitation recommending The Oarsman.

Absolutely delicious! My daughter and I had the hake, which was delicious! Comes with an assortment of cooked veggies, small potatoes and mashed as well. Would eat there again and again.
