Saltee Chipper in Kilmore quay

Best fish and chips in Ireland👍

First of all the service was very good, nice atmosphere, I had the prawn fish box my husband had the haddock fish box, these came with chips which were very nice mushy peas and tartar sauce, I picked the prawns out of the batter as it was so thick, the prawns were ok, the haddock was very over cooked, such a shame, my husband did say it to the lady when we were leaving, a shrug of the shoulders and you should have said earlier was the reply. Reading the reviews maybe we were in the wrong chipper.

Fantastic fish and chips, hard to fault and you would travel far to better

It’s a chipper with a place to eat in also (but served in takeaway packing). To say there is a restaurant is an exaggeration. The fish is good and the place is spotless. €40 for 2 fish and chips …. I won’t be back.

If you are looking for a spot that takes coastal comfort food seriously, Saltee Chipper in the picturesque fishing village of Kilmore Quay is a remarkable hidden gem, serving what genuinely feels like some of the best fish and chips in the entire country. They understand that the secret to extraordinary seafood is to keep things simple. The classic fish and chips are outstanding, featuring a perfectly crisp, golden batter and fresh fish that never feels greasy or heavy. Beyond the traditional order, the prawn scampi is equally excellent—wonderfully tender, full of fresh coastal flavor, and prepared with the exact same level of high-standard. You can always count on the quality being completely consistent every single time you visit. The experience is made even better by the staff, who are exceptionally kind, welcoming, and fast on their feet despite the steady stream of customers. The only practical warning to keep in mind concerns your choice of dining spot: if you decide to enjoy your meal outdoors by the harbor, keep a very watchful eye on your food. The seagulls are remarkably bold and every bit as enthusiastic about the food as you are! Final Verdict: An absolute coastal treasure. Between the incredible scampi, world-class fish and chips, and warm local hospitality, it is an essential stop.

Great food, gorgeous views and good service

Basic but brilliant service and staff

Delicious fish and chicken. Not exactly cheap, but definitely worth a visit.

Extremely good food only downside is that it's a little pricey

** VERY TASTY ** Weather was fabulous the day we visited so we ate outside and therefore cannot comment on the interior restaurant. The place was busy which is a good sign and the staff were very friendly and chatty, which is always an added bonus. We both had the beer battered haddock and chips which came with a good portion of tartare sauce and mush peas. Food was very tasty and portions were adequate, though pricey at €18 each! Nevertheless, we would eat here again and will definitely return.
