The best restaurants

17/05/2025: A proper local pub. Friendly staff and great customers. The way a pub should be.

30/10/2025: A fabulous dining experience at restaurant Chestnut. We had the four course set taster menu with wine pairing. From the warm greeting and service from Elaine and team to the DELICIOUS food prepared by Rob and the kitchen team the experience was incredible. The food was thought provoking and very tasty, Thank you 🙏

30/10/2025: Had the most amazing experience at The Chestnut Restaurant. The staff were so welcoming, friendly and knowledgeable of all their produce and dishes. We couldn't fault anything we ate and the wine pairing was fabulous too. Yes! It's not cheap but you know why when you taste the delights they offer.

08/11/2025: Small bar, sometimes with live music, very cutely decorated.

19/10/2025: Great staff, great venue, great music...

04/03/2026: Fantastic bar in the heart of Kilkenny with the best staff!

27/01/2026: Great seafood chowder. Good prices and a cracking pint of Kilkenny!!

10/02/2026: From start to finish top class service was great anything you wanted was.not a problem food was beautiful and very well priced

31/01/2026: My mother's favourite place to get fish and chips, decent price and great portion size too

14/01/2026: Phenomenal course! Greens are in pristine condition. So so good! Would highly recommend and will most definitely be back again very soon!

05/09/2025: Well maintained course no bushes or shrubs to loose a lot of balls in large enough fairways even a beginner could hit but when you get to the greens you need to be semi professional they are fast hilly and the pins are in though to hit placement recommended 8/10 would definitely play here again

08/02/2026: My partner and I have been coming here for years. Even though we no longer live in Ireland, we make sure we come here when we visit. Excellent pizza, probably the best in the country. The menu is quite small but everything is excellent and stays consistently excellent. The pizzas are large and the dough is just right. The inside has a nice atmosphere and the staff are always friendly and helpful. You can see the pizzas being made in the oven. We usually make a reservation as they are always busy but if you arrive soon after opening, you can get a table without waiting if you're not a large group. It's also a good spot for solo diners.

14/01/2026: Long established pizzeria in Douglas with a vegan option on request.

31/08/2025: Love Molly’s. I can’t wait to go back when I travel to Ireland again.

11/01/2026: Wesley was excellent. He repaired my VCR and promptly returned my copy of Forest Gump on VHS within the rental period.

08/01/2026: By far the best chipper in Kilkenny, its so good I travel from Hugginstown in south Kilkenny to get my food here (approx 25km). My favorites are Quarter Pounder with everything on it and Cheese Curry Chip. My mouth is watering just think of it lol. If you haven't tried a cheese curry chip I would highly recommend it.

28/02/2026: Always a warm and friendly place, great service, great staff and very reasonable price.

02/02/2026: Always a great time in Gilnas, great atmosphere, friendly helpful staff, my favourite place for a night out.

22/02/2026: Was in here for dinner. Beautiful place with friendly and brilliant staff. Foid was first class. Would highly recommend dining here. Fantastic.

09/02/2026: A wonderful treat delicious food and great service

25/11/2025: Lovely food, great value and Dawn was so helpful and friendly.

03/11/2025: A wonderful little cafe with a great selection of food both for lunch and breakfast, I really like the fact they had an all day breakfast menu cause usually breakfast is stopped being served at a certain time for certain cafes but this one didn't disappoint, the staff are lovely, the only downside is if it's busy it fills up fast as it isn't the biggest area inside but that can't also be helped. Overall a nice little cafe.

21/07/2025: Beautiful hotel! The room was comfortable and clean, the staff was welcoming and very hospitable, and the food at the on-site restaurant was great. It is a bit isolated, but if you're staying for a night or two, it's absolutely perfect. Plus, many of the rooms have a balcony - a very nice touch!

21/07/2025: Beautiful hotel. Spacious room, lovely setting. Easy check in. Friendly staff. Super clean, even the tv remote was in a plastic protector!! Used the leisure centre which was relaxing. Evening meal was gorgeous. Lovely spacious areas to sit and relax on all floors. Can not fault our stay.

27/12/2025: Great venue. Staff are very friendly as were the patrons and good atmosphere all around.

23/09/2025: Haven had food here but couple pints and music great spot
