We came by chance, while wandering the streets, we found this restaurant in a small alley. Super friendly setting, the meal succulent as much as the dessert was to die for đ. The waiters and waitresses are all very friendly and the service is efficient. The lamb is excellent and cooked to perfection. Nothing to complain about. If we ever come back to Ireland, we will come back.

The food at Stonechat is delicious. The lamb dishes are highly recommended. Everyone should be able to find something on the menu. Reservations are recommended. The service is friendly and competent.
We only disliked the very dark ambiance. Sometimes you have to use your phone's flashlight to read the menu.

A Hidden Gem in the Heart of Killarney
Stonechat Restaurant is an absolute treasure. Perfectly located in the heart of Killarney, itâs tucked away down a charming little alleyway â the kind of place you almost donât want to tell too many people about because itâs such a find.
Inside, the restaurant is full of character, with warm, traditional vibes. Every detail feels carefully thought out, creating an intimate, cosy, and beautifully curated atmosphere that makes you want to linger.
The food was exceptional â you can truly taste the freshness and high quality of the ingredients. Everything is homemade, offering a wonderful mix of traditional Irish dishes alongside some unique creations. Thereâs something for every palate here, with gluten-free, vegan, and vegetarian options available, yet still embracing all the hearty classics.
Weâve been coming to Kerry for many years, and discovering Stonechat was such a pleasant surprise â itâs now firmly on our âmust visitâ list. The chowder and lamb were standouts, easily the best weâve had in Kerry.
If youâre in Killarney, do yourself a favour and visit. This place is special.

Super nice, because we were full, we ate at the counter. The waiter was incredibly attentive, very friendly, and the food was incredibly đ delicious. There's nothing you can't find here. Fish soup and stuffed squid tube, incredibly delicious sauce, really great, absolutely worth the money.

Exceptional.
Last time I was in the Stonechat restaurant was exactly 10 years ago I enjoyed it that much it was my first port of call this time . The food was absolutely fantastic as usual it never disappoints . The staff couldnât do enough to help , Viola was a really friendly girl who took time to chat and nothing was too much bother for her . We even got to meet Roger the owner of the Stonechat for the past 25 years a credit to him and his staff . Thanks again and we canât wait to come back . So if youâre in Killarney donât miss out on great food and a lovely friendly welcome and great food at the Stonechat .
