Spooney’s Fish & Chips in Lahinch

Great fish, too many chips - can't order fish separately

Deserves higher than the 4.2 it's showing when I write this review. While camping in Doolin, we decided to not cook at the last moment & following a single 6 month old comment on reddit, made Spooney's 10 mins before close, and very very glad we did. I would rate their fish as second only the Kilmore Quay's Saltee Chipper, and not because there was anything wrong with it, it's just that the Saltee Chipper fish travels 100 metres from the fishing harbour and you get twice as much. But Spooneys fish was fab. Fresh, perfectly cooked with a great batter. Their chips however were the best I've ever had. I'm not given to hyperbole. Only the best of anything by defination, should be Five Stars. Spooney's is a five star fish and chip takeaway. It is frankly sensational.

We came right when it opened, which happened to be half hour before google says it opens. The wait wasn't too long and the fish and chips were good.

The worst fish and chips of the trip. Greasy breading and limp chips. Not to be repeated. Don't eat inside if you don't want to smell like fried food.

Beautiful fish and chips and dog friendly too!

We were told this was the best fish and chips ever. They were not, but they were good.

Fish&Chips tasted fabulous (Haddock). Also the homemade tartar-sauce. Great place to take away and eat at the beach, there are also some spacious tables to est inside.

Excellent, we had a great time ☺️

Really good fish and chips Always busy but worth any wait. Fresh food and good size portions. No toilets

County Clare is one of the most fascinating places in Ireland. Unique cliffs, castles straight out of medieval movies, caves and landscapes that are nothing short of fantastic. In the midst of all these wonders when you plan a trip to these parts I strongly recommend you consider a lunch stop in Lahinch at Spooney's. In this place you will find delicious Fish & Chips for little money. Get it to take away and move to Lahinch beach which is located immediately behind the place where you can sit comfortably on the masi that border it. The taste of the food and the beauty of the ocean will regenerate you in spirit and body.
