The best restaurants

12/10/2025: What a hidden gem! We were on a girls weekend away in Cork and this dinner was a highlight. Valerie was so sweet and accommodating, and the atmosphere in the place was amazing. Would highly recommend!

10/10/2025: The food was delicious, the service friendly, and the wine list quite good, but the indoor area had a strong cooking and oily smell. It lingered on our clothes, and we had to wash them all when we got back to the hotel.

28/09/2025: Absolutely perfect stay! The location is fantastic, and the restaurant was the real highlight — I had one of the best burgers I’ve enjoyed in a long time. We’ll definitely be coming back soon!

28/09/2025: Lovely food great staff.. bang on..

26/09/2025: Very friendly welcome Patrick, the very friendly waiter...great musical atmosphere with a typical local band, excellent food, highly recommended, but reservations are recommended.

17/09/2025: Great pub and restaurant, with a great atmosphere and good music. Special mention to John for his dancing and entertainment talents. A must-see if you're in Clifden!

03/10/2025: Fantastic- food, lodging and staff!!

23/06/2025: We had a rather mixed experience for dinner. When making the booking I had requested a table around 7pm but was told there was a big group coming in at that time and we could only be accommodated at 6pm. When we arrived we were the only people in the restaurant and when we left it was still very empty. We were seated in a section of the restaurant on our own which meant the atmosphere was unfortunately very lacking. The food was good but not fantastic in my opinion; the vegetables in particular were over cooked and mushy (courgettes and peppers) and the potatoes were just ok. There's beautiful fresh produce in West Cork, particularly in summer, and it was shame not to see this reflected on the plates. The fish and venison which we had were very nice. The location and grounds are beautiful.

30/09/2025: We didn't get to eat here. Looking for a walk in at 9.25 just to get a pizza. Were told they were no longer serving despite not closing until 10 and plenty of empty tables. They suggested to get a pizza to take away but we needed somewhere to sit in. Totally their perogative, but they need to specify last orders/seating time somewhere for clarity. Got sorted elsewhere also closing at 10.

22/09/2025: Very friendly staff excellent service portions very generous

20/07/2025: Lovely first visit. Superior room with balcony ideal overlooking the golf course. Nice breakfast and bar food with friendly staff. Location a bit remote but can drive to Glendalough in 35 mins and Kildare Village about the same.

17/07/2025: Dead flies in the rice, avoid the bar food. Showers can't maintain consistent temperature while in use. Very poor customer service, no response received to feedback given to them.

10/10/2025: Very reasonable service was great

07/09/2025: Good food at the right price and friendly staff too!

08/09/2025: Incredible good, really. It is a little bit more expensive than the others in the area, but for sure worth it. The bread served before the main, the meet, the sauce, the leek, everything in the perfect cooked time, and what a combination. Also, amazing atmosphere and service. All staff smiling and super polite. The host was so kind and friendly, managed to get a table for us even with just half an hour before closing. Really exceed my expectations. Congratulations for all team!

24/08/2025: Great staff fab food lovely to stop by and enjoy your meal we will be back

20/09/2025: Lovley traditional pub with good Guinness.

13/08/2025: Very interesting historical place

21/09/2025: The food here is top class and plentiful Highly recommended

25/08/2025: Food was great.. server not the friendliest:( wouldn't go back... service folks can make or break you!

07/10/2025: Wish we’d found it sooner — incredible meal! We stumbled upon Harrow near the end of our trip to Killarney, and honestly — we would’ve eaten here every night had we found it sooner. Everything about the experience was exceptional. The Caesar salad was crisp and flavourful, far above the usual. The lamb Wellington was absolutely outstanding — tender, perfectly cooked, and wrapped in rich, flaky pastry. The venison steak was equally impressive, beautifully presented and full of depth. The atmosphere is stylish yet relaxed, and the staff were genuinely warm and attentive without being overbearing. It’s clear this place takes pride in every detail — from the ingredients to the plating to the service. Yes, it's a bit of a splurge, but it's more than worth it. Easily one of the best meals we had in Ireland.

06/10/2025: Absolutely amazing evening at Harrow! Every dish we had was exceptional and the service was excellent. For the quality of food the menu is reasonably priced and so well thought out. One of those places that gets it just right and is consistently good. Truly a gem that I look forward to going back to time and time again.

04/10/2025: All around amazing experience! The fish was fresh and unique. The staff were great as well. From beginning to end it was a winner!

04/10/2025: Fish restaurant located near the pontoon. It's difficult for a French person to choose the menu without a good translator. 😉 The establishment and cuisine are well-prepared.

12/10/2025: A bar with great character and charm ... sadly disappearing today. The bar staff and the customers were friendly and full of locals knowledge, the bar comfortable and rustic and the pints tasty. The toilets were clean and the prices reasonable. What more do you need!

09/10/2025: Very quiet when we were there. Quick friendly service. Heater going. Loved it.

31/10/2025: Fantastic as always. Great food great coffee friendly staff

21/09/2025: We had both a sweet and a savoury crepe and they were lovely.

19/10/2025: The early menu is decent in terms of value & options. The a la carte has plenty of authentic Thai dishes. Our group were all pleased (though the chips didn't seem to go down well). The cocktails on offer were the usual with some house specials. The interior are lovely & staff are quick, attentive & friendly. The vibes are a bit touristy & notions.

19/10/2025: A little pricey but big portions and excellent food
