The Village Hotel in Laytown-bettystown-mornington

23/01/2025: Went for lunch on a weekday on route to Dublin Airport. I wanted to see the beach and find some hopefully good food. Went into Reddens with no real expectations as I hadn’t reviewed first. Felt very warm and welcome from the moment we walked in . Food was great there’s a new chef . We said to the lovely waitress how good the food was and the chef came out to see us . Very big portions and great food . A very relaxing few hours if we hadn’t a plane to catch probably would have booked a room with a sunrise view .

01/01/2025: Unfortunately I find myself having to write this very bad review reason been a manager who when my young son ordered steak and it was really tough we kindly asked for it to be changed no problem at all untill the manager Gary came over and was very intimating who stated how he was once a butcher and the steak was fine the way it was he got to the stage of asking My son what he wanted then and he felt really intimated by this man as as he stated he is a tall gentleman but he was very aggressive in his manner that after trying to talk to him he walked away mid Conversation and left us feeling very uncomfortable to the point I didn't finish meal and opted to bring it to the room the other staff were absolutely lovely kind and friendly and exactly what ya want from staff but found our new years night cut very short and we don't get away often so was left very disappointed just a side note the owner and the lady at breakfast were very good and kind about it and all though I felt bad having to say something as I never normally would our night away didn't go as we expected I by no means want to cause any trouble buy I really do think the gentleman in question really needs to work on his communion skill with paying customers other than that thanks very much
