The best restaurants

16/08/2026: Basic, bland food - chips were dry, bread hard etc. Cakes looked okay but didn’t want to hang around long enough to try them. Staff friendly but forgot to serve our drinks

12/08/2026: We had a delightful time at this café definitely coming back. Beautiful words of wisdom on the walls

18/07/2026: The shawarma would be nicer with pickles

01/07/2026: My wife and I ended up eating here because it was nearby to an appointment we had in the area, and I'm gonna be real: this is the best pizza I think I've ever had in Europe. Certainly in Ireland. I'm not super well travelled, and haven't been all over, but I cannot overstate how good the pepperoni pizza here is. It was like being transported back in time to when I was a kid eating the perfect slice of pizza for lunch after an hour of playing at an arcade. Staff was also really nice, and seeing all the kids there for ice cream was really wholesome. The ice cream machine did end up breaking while we were there, so we didn't get to try it, but next time for sure!

11/09/2026: Very good place to eat especially for children 😋 also does drive through and pre order for pick up. Good regular food with healthy options 😋

04/09/2026: Medical discrimination is not nice is it?

30/08/2026: Very disappointing drop off in quality of the food. Used to be excellent but not worth the drive to delgany anymore

23/08/2026: Fab venue. Conor the bar man was amazing so attentive. He looked after us all Night long.

25/07/2026: A beautiful and very quiet garden in the middle of busy Cork. Easy to relax here with a perfect cup of coffee (or tea). Very friendly service!

17/07/2026: Lovely building,I went to see the Census 1926 exhibition.

12/07/2026: Very nice village Pub, it has a lovely beer garden too 🌸

27/03/2026: Brilliant,great pub,,wonderful staff,great atmosphere

10/05/2026: Top quality service from the minute we arrived. We were walked to our comfortable room, treated to an excellent quality dinner with a good quality wine list and had a comfortable night's sleep. Breakfast was much higher quality than we were expecting the next day. Maura is a star and made it such a pleasure to stay. Thanks for a lovely evening!

10/05/2026: We wanted to get to the Tannery before it closed at the end of this year. It didn't disappoint. Máire gave us a loveky welcome. The room was very comfortable. Dinner was really tasty. Great local ingredients, thoughtfully presented. We had an especially lovely glass of champagne as we were celebrating. The breakfast the next morning was especially delicious. Just sorry that we were too full to have the lemon drizzle cake we were tempted with for breakfast dessert. Definitely worth a trip. Look forward to seeing what they do next.

31/05/2026: Great customer service, really welcoming workers, amazing atmosphere and peaceful, really good food presentation.

30/04/2026: Bought a meal yesterday, it was amazing! Def worth another visit Staff was also very sweet and kind Loved eating here and will come back!

25/07/2026: Young boy I think his name was Justin, was very rude to me and my friends, would not recommend 1 star for service

17/05/2026: This has to be the most professionaly run bar I have been in a long time. I was there with family on a very busy day and the management and especially the floor staff guys were so patient and helpful to any wishes on the day. If you want to experience a bar of this caliber then go to the Wishing Well. You won't regret it 👋

27/07/2026: Typical Irish supermarket. Nothing good nothing bad

21/07/2026: Well stocked and freshly baked food daily.

28/08/2026: the front-of-house service was genuinely poor

05/08/2026: It was my first time visiting this restaurant today, and I had such a lovely experience. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the staff were incredibly polite and welcoming, and the aubergine dish was absolutely gorgeous – one of the best I've had! I arrived right when they opened, and in many places, when you're the first or only customer, the staff can seem a bit distant. Here, it was the complete opposite. They made me feel genuinely welcome from the moment I walked in.

08/07/2026: A great place to enjoy a proper meal after a long day. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming, the staff are friendly, and the service was quick. The portions are generous, the food is fresh, tasty, and cooked with care. I especially liked the traditional style of the dishes – comforting and full of flavor. The prices are fair for the quality you get. If you're in Carlow and looking for a good lunch or dinner, this is definitely worth a visit. I would happily come back again and recommend it to anyone who enjoys good food and a relaxed atmosphere.

30/08/2026: The food was mediocre and wasnt as described in the menu and when asked the serving staff about it they said, that's the way it comes... Oh ok.... after finishing our meal and sitting there drinking our beverages a server came over and just stuck her fingers in my glass so I couldnt even finish my drink. The place is loud so if it is somewhere you want to go to chat and catch up you will find it hard to hear the conversation.

20/08/2026: Fantastic place to eat great food & have a drink. Highly recommend a stop here 🍳🍺

10/06/2026: The staff throughout the hotel were lovely. The reception staff were very welcoming and those in the bar/restaurant were great to chat with. We stayed the night and the hotel is convenient for a visit to local Blackrock area, which was relaxing for a coffee and stroll. Motorways are also convenient for easy access to the road home. Thank you Patrick

02/04/2026: I stayed at Fairways Hotel Dundalk for three nights. Overall, the experience was quite positive — the rooms were comfortable, and the front desk staff were very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, I was quite disappointed with the restaurant service. One of the staff members, provided consistently poor service — he appeared unfriendly, inattentive, and at times even rude. This significantly affected the dining experience. I hope the hotel can address this, as otherwise it’s a great place to stay.

24/09/2026: Amazing cakes and coffee. Outside seating area has great views of the garden and Sugarloaf.

25/08/2026: It's basically a canteen with the Avoca name. Not the traditional "sit down and order off a menu" setup. Food is overpriced and underwhelming.
