Val's Bar & Bistro in Ballyhaunis

Nice place for food, but one bad thing for it was the kitchen was wide open and the extractor fans weren't working properly because we were being smoked out of it.

We had dinner at the bistro and enjoyed the roast and fish of the day. Both very good and at a reasonable price.

Fabulous lunch today lovely menu great choice lovely clean restaurant very pleasant staff will defo be back 👌

Bistro experience is excellent. Good food at reasonable prices and very efficient service. Highly recommended. Excellent presentation of dishes!!

I have reviewed this establishment before in 2014 and have been there a handful of times since, sadly a gap of six years has lapsed, however, I returned on May the 7th 2025 with a family member from Australia. Despite my long abscence as previously mentioned, I found Val's Bar & Bistro much the same as I remembered it, it was busy, but we did not wait long for a table and we were served very well, the food as usual was presented equally as good, the stand-out part of our meal, was the Rhubarb Crumble, a magnificent taste and beautifully and artisticaly assembled on a grey slate platter.

Stopped in here on our way to Knock, absolutely lovely food, lovely staff, looking forward to going again, 10/10

We stopped off here on the way to Westport. Delicious Irish food, everything was very tasty and it had a nice atmosphere. It was very dark but had nice Easter decorations. Would definitely recommend!

Called in on the way home and found a place we will return to. Excellent food and a great selection of dishes starters, mains and desserts as well as specials. Nice atmosphere and I'm sure it would be a place to stay and have a drink after finishing your food. Plenty of room and lots of tables.
