The best restaurantsof american in Sligo

20/09/2025: Appetising and flavourful food, excellent service with an amosphere of genuine cordiality. Extremely pleasant experience

28/07/2025: I had high hopes for this place when I walked in. Lovely decor and felt like a nice atmosphere. I found the menu good and the prices were a little eye watering. I had the prawns as the starter. These were quite tasty and the portion size was just right for a starter. On to the mains, I ordered the 40 day rib eye steak. An 8oz cut if I remember correctly was about €45. I gave them the benefit of doubt, hoping it would be a tasty cut of meat. Alas, it turned out to be very bland. It came out looking like a burger from Burger king. Call me old school, but a steak should be nicely pan fried and not char grilled. I have had much nicer rib eye elsewhere and for about €10 cheaper too. My advise to the embassy, although I know totally impractical, would be, make the price €50 and make the steak Wagyu. I would happily pay for a good cut of Wagyu any time. I didn't have any desert so can't comment on them. I liked that they had Erdinger to drink though. Service was very good and staff were friendly and helpful. 5 out of 5 for the staff. However if your looking for a tasty steak, I would probably try elsewhere.

30/08/2025: There I was planning to fly out of Ireland West Knock airport on an early Sunday morning flight and just wasn’t feeling like getting up at half-past-very-early to do the long two-hour drive from home to get there. So, I started looking for a place to stay within punching distance or even a short drive to the airport. I wanted to stay away from the formulaic sterility and coldness of a chain hotel and stumbled upon this absolute jewel in county Sligo, a mere 15-minute drive from the airport. Cawley’s has a wonderful blend of old-style charm, class and relaxing vibes right in the heart of Tubbercurry. Despite first appearances, it delightfully stays away from any pretentious notions, and not only does it have favourable room rates but has a very honest and wonderfully welcoming bar and restaurant with very accommodating, natural and friendly staff. From the menu, this reviewer went for the striploin steak with all the trimmings washed down with a nice Chilean Chiraz, followed by the traditional sherry trifle and ice cream. From modest-sized weddings, to solo travellers just looking for a bed, hot shower, strong wifi and a good meal for the night, to the small dinner parties, Cawley’s is truly a chameleon of options establishment that accommodates the full spectrum of travellers, diners and event celebration needs. The very charming and conversational barman Matthew even accommodated my request for a Calimocho (simply red wine and coke) without as much as a flinch, oh and be sure to connect with Teresa, part of the Cawley family, at front of house. You won’t be disappointed with Cawley’s, now 60 years in business and still going strong.

15/07/2025: I’m very happy to leave this review. Jennifer and Theresa were so friendly and helpful. The service was fantastic. I was just driving through Tubbercurry and wanted to have a little breakfast, I found this cozy place so cute and well decorated. They had a nice welcoming sign just outside on the sidewalk advertising that they serve breakfast and various meals throughout the day and I’m so glad I stopped in. The minute I walked through I was greeted with a warm comforting surrounding and soft music playing as I walked through to the dining area there were Jennifer and Theresa very friendly and happy with each other. Clearly happy employees. They were testing a new cupcake that Jennifer had just created, white chocolate with raspberry and pistachio inside as a filling, Theresa was complementing her and telling everyone it was such a great flavor combo I knew from that very moment I had stopped in at the right place for a lovely little breakfast. They immediately acknowledged me with a smile and a happy, hello, and lead me into the dining area where there were a couple tables filled with happy diners. The decor was thoughtful and warm kind of old world comforting. They seated me down next to the window where I could see a gorgeous patio set up for dining with lovely tables and Large umbrellas. Next time I come, I’ll be sure to take advantage of that beautiful garden patio for a meal. But today I focused on the menu in front of me and ended up ordering the American pancakes. I added on à la carte scrambled eggs and hashbrowns. I also ordered some coffee with oat milk. Jennifer was such a good server, she came back twice to make sure everything was perfect and if I needed any adjustments, she took care of it so quickly. Before I knew it, my meal had arrived piping hot, and beautifully arranged. I enjoyed it with maple syrup, but they had other options which would be just as Delicious. There was even a tiny little base on the table with a little garden rose in it. The little details of this establishment are so charming and well fought out if I were a traveler and needed overnight accommodation I wouldn’t hesitate to take a room here. I polished my meal off pretty quickly. It was very delicious, in between another young lady came to check on me. I didn’t get her name, but she had beautiful blonde hair and a happy smile, and The fact that she came to check on me, even though she was at my server, added on another layer of true customer service value here. I highly recommend this location for a delicious meal and as there A-frame sign out in the front said they do serve all meals, breakfast lunch, and dinner guarantee you I will be back to try their other menu Offerings in the other times of the day and I recommend you to do the same
