Rafter Dempseys in Kilkenny

We reserved an area with dart board and finger food for a group trip, and it was perfect. Staff were really good fun and even joined in a sing-song at the end of the night. Would definitely recommend Rafter's for a group night out. Note, we didn't stay overnight here but I didn't want to dock marks for that.

Stopped in for breakfast and food was top notch and reasonable priced. Staff were very friendly Place is full of nice memorabilia Toilets were very clean Worthy of a visit

Nos alojamos aquí por dos noches con marido y niños. Excelente ubicación. La habitación estaba impecable. Tenía una decoración encantadora, tan fresca y cálida. Desayunamos las dos mañanas y cenamos cuando llegamos. Estaba delicioso. Muy recomendable. Personal muy amable. Gracias a todo el personal trabajador, sin mencionar a la señora que hace la colada que era muy amable y se registró con nosotros para asegurarse de que teníamos suficiente de todo. Gracias, sin duda volveremos.

Just back from a fabulous weekend. Definitely be back. Gerry and all the gang were brilliant 🤩 from Catherine, Lorraine and all the girls

Had a meal for a hen party and evening entertainment in the bar . Gerry looked after us all night and was a gentleman, food was delicious and the atmosphere in the pub was amazing 🤩 highly recommend 5 stars , live music on Saturday night was brilliant too. Thanks Gerry and all the staff in the pub

Hallelujah!!! I have found heaven on earth! I've never eaten something so delicious! A steak served on an 800 degree lava stone! Plus the necessary portion of Irish hospitality! An experience! Unique! Any time!
