The best restaurants

19/08/2025: I recently played two rounds at Mount Juliet during a short trip home — teeing off at 4:00 PM one day and again at 8:20 AM the next morning. I spent over €400 between green fees and buggy hire, expecting a top-tier golfing experience. Unfortunately, it fell well short of expectations. The front nine on both days was significantly disrupted by maintenance work. Grounds staff were actively working on most holes, and a maintenance vehicle followed me for three consecutive holes. Every time I lined up a shot, the vehicle’s engine would idle or start nearby — whether intentional or not, it was incredibly distracting and took away from the experience. Several bunkers were also in noticeably poor condition, which is surprising given the high standard Mount Juliet is known for. The worst part, however, was the buggy I hired for €60. It couldn’t reverse and had to be physically pushed multiple times during the round — completely unacceptable for a course charging these kinds of premium rates. I emailed the club three times over the course of more than two weeks and received no response. I had hoped for at least an acknowledgment, if not a goodwill gesture like a voucher or future round — especially as I won’t have time to return this trip. I’ve played Mount Juliet regularly when home, and I was genuinely looking forward to this visit. Sadly, the experience and lack of customer service were a real letdown.

02/08/2025: Recién llegado a casa un rato después de un gran día jugando Mount Juliet... me encantó el campo, aunque tal vez sea fácil decirlo después de disparar 79 gross / 39 pts. Los greens eran excelentes y el campo superó mis expectativas. . . sí, algunos trozos irregulares en calles, PERO el campo en general se veía muy bien y los greens eran excelentes. Desde que llegamos hasta que nos fuimos... el personal era increíble. Jovencita en la tienda profesional era acogedor, charlatán y servicial. El joven que hace de titular era acogedor, informativo y charlatán . . el joven en el 10o también amable y charlatán - buenas bromas sobre el rugby y finalmente Amber fue excelente cuidando de nosotros durante nuestra comida. Ambos si disfrutamos del Butter Chicken & Fish & Chips respectivamente seguido del helado Ic Cream & Brownie postres.

27/06/2025: La comida era excelente. ¡Algunos de los mejores huevos escalfados que he tenido nunca en microondas aquí! El personal es amable y cortés. Muy eficiente. El gerente tiene una gran sonrisa en su cara. Lejos de manejarse desde la oficina, está con su equipo. Un gran grupo de las jóvenes escolares más educadas y divertidas llegaron en su último día de escuela. Sin fases, el gerente habló con cada uno como si fuera su cliente más valioso. ¡Este negocio merece hacerlo bien!

10/07/2024: Low-quality food for the price, unfriendly atmosphere, didn't feel very hygienic, disappointed with this place, would not recommend since there are so many places that are actually friendly and delicious to eat/drink in Kilkenny.

10/07/2024: Overall not satisfying experience. Food was dissapointing and bland. Definitely not recommended. Atmosphere was rude and unfriendly.

09/07/2024: By far the best Indian in cork ! The food is Devine authentic and fresh . The staff are always friendly and accommodating. The prices are reasonable . Would recommend 100%

13/01/2025: Sadly, this cafe is deteriorating. The floors and tables tend to be sticky, and the worst of all, the coffee is not great. Come on Quigleys, sort it out.

12/01/2025: Lovely cafe in centre of Tullamore.

20/01/2025: Decided to visit following a recommendation from family and this was easily the best meal of our trip. The wife had the salmon and I had the lamb tomahawk. Unfortunately, although the lamb was cooked perfectly, the veg that came with the dish had a lot of water at the bottom which is my only complaint. I will add that the staff were fantastic providing some of the best service we have received in a long time. We will visit again when we are next in the area!

23/09/2024: First time we stopped off here, on our way to ferry. Great food and reasonably priced. My husband and I both had the turkey and ham dinner, large portions very tasty. Staff pleasant and friendly. Will definitely return when in the area.
