The best restaurants

10/02/2026: Dined here recently and really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. Will certainly return.

07/02/2026: The food we were served tonight in Chilli Lounge was absolutely delicious. First our starters of Prawn Tempura and another Sizzling starter was amazing, then our main courses of Prawn Balti and Prawn Madras exceeded our expectations -- most delicious with a fantastic tangy taste. The staff were so helpful and friendly too, can't wait to come back to this great establishment in Cavan town.

22/11/2025: UPDATE: Sister Trish and cleaner Mother has left Biddy’s Pub “ We are Fed Up of his Greed and Bullying “ So who is telling Lies Now readers .. Firstly I would like to state I have been frequenting Biddy’s O’Dowd’s Bar Athlone since Opening in 2022 a Couple of Times a Week during that time I rarely got a bad pint of Guinness their was NO PROBLEM replacing a pint if this happened but in Recent Times Bad Pints of Guinness were a Regular Occurrences at Biddy’s Bar Regrettably .. GREED is a TERRIBLE THING if your in the PUB / CATERING BUSINESS or any business serving the Unsuspecting Citizens of Ireland and Visitors DEADLY PRODUCTS … I have always Promoted Biddy’s O’Dowd’s or similar Business that is Selling Good Food or Drinkable Products I also frequented the old bar in the late 1980’s so I have the Experience of GOOD and BAD products like Guinness for FORTY YEARS which in anyone’s books Qualifies Me to WRITE this Review and Hurts Me at the same Time .. If Irish Citizens the Public Cannot Trust Publicans Luckily they are Rare around Athlone anyway ….. I also was SUBJECTED to Verbal Abuse by Chris Hewitt Licence Owner when he PHONED ME like a Creature POSSESSED … I hung Up on him … I received a Superb Pint of Guinness when i entered the Pub it was Very Quiet and I was the only customer drinking the Good Stuff “Guinness Draught” everyone else was drinking Beers / Larger which should raised a Red Flag for me ….. I complemented Trish Owners sister Chris on the Great Quality of the Guinness as I do Everywhere from Ireland to Portugal and further where I get a Great Pint of Guinness i ordered a Second Pint of Guinness The Second Pint was as different as Chalk and Cheese with Brown / Black Bubbles Accross its Head I won’t say Guinness as it wasn’t Guinness but Slops … How this Transformation from My First Superb Pint of Guinness to the Second Pint is IMPOSSIBLE unless the Barrel was finished and Trish replaced the Guinness Barrel with a New Barrel which was OFF also and could be Replaced with another New Keg if that is what Happened or the Original barrel was tampered with … I made Trish aware of the Problem and she Replied “ it might be the Glasses !!!! “ as she hadn’t changed the Guinness Barrel I left it with her I ordered a Replacement Pint of Guinness Trish but it was EXACTLY the Same UNDRINKABLE I made Trish aware again … New Customer entered the pub and Ordered a Pint of Guinness like a Shot Trish ran again down the stairse to the Cellar .. Trish visits the Cellar Very Frequently .. When Trish pulled and served a Pint of Guinness to the New Customer it looked Exactly the Same as my First Pint of Guinness which was a TOTAL Transformation ..NOT … I pointed the Guinness Transformation to Trish but got NO REPLY .. In fact I got the COLD SHOULDER !!!! I then Left Biddy as I was made UNWELCOME by Trish’s Attitude towards ME.. I got a Drinkable Pint of Good Guinness which I had No Problem obtaining in Athlone ….. I sent Trish a Picture of a “GOOD PINT” of GUINNESS which I had NO PROBLEM obtaining here in Athlone .. Less than an Hour I was Subjected to a phone call from Chris Hewitt Trish’s brother a TERRAIN of ABUSE ROARING DOWN the PHONE at ME HE was like a Creature POSSESSED .. I would also state their my be a Breach of the Data Protection Act 2018 as Chris Hewitt stated that he would make sure that I wouldn’t get served in any Pub an Athlone as he was printing my picture off Pub CCTV “ as I speak and sending it to them “ He also BARRED ME .. This is All Over me making Trish his sister aware of a Bad Pint of Guinness which can happen in any Pub .. I looked on Trish as a Friend telling her Personal Private stuff I thought we were Friends or so she made Out by Poisoning Me !!!! I drank in that old pub in the late 1980’s which has been closed for years that’s showing my age I was drinking here before Chris Hewitt was Born !! So I Hope Chris and Trish aren’t showing a different Side of themselves by being AGEST to their Customers !! They Definitely shown the Very Worst side of themselves that Morning Greed Terrible Thing

20/08/2025: This place is the best pub in town. Think Cheers, but in Ireland. The bartender and locals were super friendly, telling jokes and giving local recommendations. We spent a lot of time here and plan to go back later tonight after dinner. Would HIGHLY recommend coming here for a pint or chocolate espresso martini.

07/12/2025: Friendly staff and they have some top shows here. If you haven’t been here for a show then you’re missing out 🤷🏻‍♂️

02/12/2025: First time I visited this place. I was struggling with paperwork... I had no idea how the system worked.... wow, amazing service, intervention in my needs.... what a brilliant place.

25/03/2026: Great tasting delicious food freshly prepared. Good selection of dishes for a vegan diet which was super

01/02/2026: Will NEVER darken their doorway again! For years I've been going to the Interlude, meeting friends for cuppa scone and a chat. Today I went in there, on my own, looking for a scone and coffee, was asked if I had a reservation, in a sneery voice, when I said I hadn't, that was it......I wouldn't mind, hardly a table had a reservation, most tables were empty. It only takes less than15 mins to eat a scone and drink a coffee, when you are on your own. Thank God, there are so many more fantastic eateries in beautiful Dungarvan, that accept someone wanting to be there on there own. I never asked for my husband to die, we always went there together. Maybe it was because I use a walking stick? Goodbye Interlude and good riddance, I will never enter your doors again. One very disgruntled long time customer.

26/10/2025: Great tea and pastries and the staff is nice, 100% recommend the place

14/02/2026: Amazing food my steak was cooked absolutely perfectly one of the best I’ve had in a long time! Our server was also incredible she clearly is amazing with the customers as a lot of tables knew her by name and were very friendly with her. Would 100% recommend

02/02/2026: This is my favourite place to eat in drogheda. I have never had a bad meal here ever. We go at least once a week and I usually have the tower burger and a pint of corona. Yum. Highly recommend. The beer garden is lovely on a sunny day also.

27/01/2026: Yes I was at a funeral, so met the whole of my lady friend's family, I liked the place,

19/10/2025: Clean, busy business with the bonus of the Post Office located in store.

29/07/2025: Great prices and wide range of fresh vegetables

28/11/2025: It was really really nice, wasn't the biggest fan of the fava beans but the rest was lovely! Also grabbed some meringue and piccadillo which I'm excited to try! Lovely people running it and lovely people eating there. The aubergine is a must have if it's on the menu, one of the tastiest things I've ever had hands down. Also, it was my first time having veal and it was served with a tuna sauce and capers over it which was a lot of new flavours for me but soooo good.

01/09/2025: Incredible, creative and absolutely delicious! I cannot wait to return.

30/09/2025: Creamy pints midweek. Great atmosphere, and service.

12/08/2025: Staff are chill and the outdoor area is nice without being pretentious
