The best restaurants

09/01/2025: Coffee is always great, so too are the pastries

02/12/2024: Lovely spot to grab a coffee or a hearty breakfast. Everything was excellent!

11/02/2025: Nice bar, great to come and chat with friends

23/11/2024: Cream pints I’ll definitely return. Great atmosphere and spectacular location.

22/03/2025: Recommended by my son for a good coffee and good food.Had a coffee and sourdough toast. Nice atmosphere and very relaxed ambience.

11/03/2025: Matcha isn't good and very overpriced for what I got, the cheesecake was absolutely delicious but for 5.20 I'm not sure I would be back to try it again. You lose half the cheesecake in the parchment paper it's packaged in. Baristas were very talented and my drink was made nicely but just not with quality ingredients.

31/03/2025: Went for a bite to eat on Friday the 28th of March, food was lovely and not only that but the service was excellent. Andrew I believe is his name, looked after us and he did not dissapoint. He provided service with a smile and even recommended the wings for starters which were savage. Thank you Andrew. Will definitely be coming back.

29/01/2025: Lovley food for a chipper Delish fresh chips and a massive menu

31/03/2025: An interesting find and a spot. This place, looks tiny, but packs a punch! We had a lunch with my partner. Started with the torched oysters (spinach and garlic), slightly colder than my expectations, but flavor wise, was a delicacy. Moved on with the house chowder, OMG, one of the best. I eat and actually cook seafood regularly, this one was off the charts. And the main course, we went with the turbot, to share… I am not a fan of this particular species, personally prefer the black sea one (yet turbot is turbot). But, regardless of the size, it was cooked on charcoal grill, to perfection. Excellent and not an easy job. When I confirmed that to the chef, he was so humble and commented that the coal was in perfect state, not too hot, mot too cold, he did not want to take the credit. Another shock seeing a chef so humble. Our service was also gr8, always checking, helpful with our questions. And the conditions were not in their favor. Streets under construction, heavy machinery, dust, noise, I had my worries. But so happy to be a proven otherwise. Heavily advised and suggested. Will surely visit again! A must try. The music in the background was also nice.

30/03/2025: Fabulous food. Excellent staff. Would highly recommend.

22/06/2024: Seems like a place for locals. If you want to drink and chat with some locals, this is your place.

06/10/2024: We stayed at Kylemore Pass Hotel for two nights in September, and it was among our favorite accommodations of our entire 3-week visit to Ireland. We arrived on a VERY rainy afternoon, but Stuart quickly checked us in, took our bags to our room, and then had us sit in front of the fire while he made us coffee and tea. It was such a cozy welcome! Our room faced the front of the hotel and had the most wonderful view of the spectacular Connemara scenery. We had a small balcony which was perfect for star-gazing once the rain moved out and the skies cleared. We had breakfast and dinner in the hotel's restaurant both days and were very pleased. It's a small establishment, but the menu offered great variety and our meals were really delicious. Stuart is a wonderful host. He's warm and funny, and available for whatever you might need. We look forward to our next trip to Ireland and will plan a longer stay at Kylemore Pass. Highly recommend!

28/05/2024: Was taking part in the Tour de Conamara and this was a great base, about 20 mins drive from Clifden where the event starts & finishes. Comfortable hotel, breakfasts and evening menu hit the spot 👍
