The best restaurants

15/03/2026: Made a reservation to find out they booked a different time on the system to what i had booked for. So we left and came back an hour later which didnt bother us too much. A sorry about this or some acknowlement would of been nice but the staff seemed a bit cold. Food was lovely. Floors and bathroom were not very clean. Our waitress was very nice. We spent a nice bit of money there and when leaving we did not even get a goodbye or thanks from the staff. Will not be returning here, very disappointing

31/10/2025: Amazing seafood. Up with the best across Ireland. Black sole, scallops, potted crab all amazing. But the star of the show is the chowder. I've tried a lot of chowder across West Cork, Clare, Galway and Connemara and to me this is the best chowder I've ever had. It has more lemon to it than others I've had before but was beautifully balanced and loaded with seafood. Had to go back a 2nd time to have it again, when in the area. Top notch.

03/03/2026: Myself and my friend (Jane and Andrew) stayed at The Martello for three nights last week, we had a truly amazing stay. I have stayed at the Hotel before but it was Andrew's first time. The staff are so friendly, kind and informative. The food is delicious - my favourite was the Mussels - to die for! Well done to everyone ! Until we see you again!

02/03/2026: The perfect place for our weekend. Very close to the Dart. Opposite the beautiful promenade and the sea. Spotless rooms. Really helpful staff. Fabulous Irish Breakfast. The bars and restaurants are beautiful So many spaces to sit and enjoy yourselves. Food is gorgeous

20/02/2026: Brilliant, whether for a drink or great food, lunch or dinner, this place never disappoints, staff will go out of their way to ensure everything is to the customer’s satisfaction!

14/02/2026: Lovely Sunday dinner generous portions. staff were very friendly & accomadating as we hadn't booked ahead. Lovely warm atmosphere nice open fire in front bar.

09/03/2026: Amazing stay! The staff were absolutely incredible—so friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with anything we needed. The room was extremely tidy and well looked after, and the beds were really comfortable which made it easy to relax after a long day. The location is also great, with easy access to the city centre, which made getting around really convenient. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

06/03/2026: Absolutely amazing hotel. Location is unbeatable, service and staff are WONDERFUL! We loved everything about our stay!

21/09/2025: every time my family go to cavan we always go to dinner here!! the staff are so lovely and attentive and we’ve never had any problems with our food. They also offer gluten free and can cater to other options. Definitely recommend this place!! :)

11/09/2025: Good service and the food was great. Will go back again.

05/01/2026: Incredible scallops...which are sometimes hard to find. ❤️

02/01/2026: Top notch pub experience. Food is brilliant in the pub and in the restaurant upstairs too. Live music, darts, sports on tv, the whole vibe.

12/10/2025: Had breakfast here yesterday. Really gorgeous. Service very quick even though it was busy. 3 of us left there full and very happy. Looking forward to a return visit

18/09/2025: What a gem of a place, we’d been to the Deli the day before and bought some granola and flour, and had a take out coffee, so we were really looking forward to a late breakfast at Café Rua. First impressions were a fantastic welcome and real friendly people, nothing sham or pretend here. What a great menu, absolutely something for all tastes and dietary requirements. The chorizo, spinach and sautéed potatoes, topped with 2 perfectly poached eggs and accompanied with chilli relish was excellent. Real fresh orange juice was delightful, and the coffee? Epic! What a fabulous way to spend time being looked after in one of the best cafés I’ve visited.

27/10/2025: Tried this place out on a Saturday for brunch. Egg toasty was solid and the americano coffee hit the spot.

08/10/2025: First time there very impressed ,would highly recommend trying.

01/09/2025: One of the best shakes I've ever had!

31/08/2025: One of the most beautiful places in cobh 😋 Ice cream amazing

13/01/2026: Cosy, clean, warm.. plenty tvs, upstairs area with a projector. Town center so everything is in reach.. top spot in Tuam

10/10/2025: Great food, staff could have been more observant/attentive

04/08/2025: Will definitely be back for the Turkey & Ham, so delicious 🤤 The breakfast (all day?!?) was really lovely and €14 is a relatively okay price for the size and included tea. The waiters were really friendly and the outdoor seating is gorgeous

03/08/2025: Very tasty good and friendly staff

20/12/2025: He food was good but it was very loud usually very busy though

04/03/2026: Food and service was excellent- staff polite and professional very enjoyable lunch 😋

18/02/2026: Lovely and calm. Great customer service with short wait times for a restaurant

16/02/2026: We ate here last week and have to say the food was very disappointing. I had the burger which was just ok. My partner had the braised beef which was very dry and looked very unappealing. Atmosphere was very quiet and there were only 2 other tables occupied even though we were there on a Saturday evening. Service was good and friendly so no issues there but I wouldn't recommend unfortunately and we wouldn't return. In response to the owners reply - its disappointing that they chose to be defensive rather than take constructive feedback/criticism on board. Very few people would say that they are not happy with their food at the time. Improving comes from taking feedback on board and learning from it.

04/02/2026: What a wonderful place with a fantastic lunch. True professionals who skillfully craft their dishes.

15/02/2026: Lovely food staff very nice and the place is so clean

26/11/2025: I was at my friend birthday party
