Angler's Rest
Ballyconnell
29/06/2026: I had a wonderful meal last evening. The staff were excellent — friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience feel relaxed and welcoming. The food was absolutely top‑class, full of flavour and great portions. Prices were very reasonable for the quality you get.
A brilliant experience from start to finish. Staff, food, and price all 💯.
14/06/2026: Came back to this great eating pub after 6 years, really friendly welcome,had onion rings for starters and huge sirloin steaks cooked rare for main, the onion rings were really freshly cooked,hot and crispy and the steaks were cooked to perfection and tasted great,one of the best steaks I have had in a long time, all the staff are helpful and friendly and I can't recommend this place enough,it does get busy at peak evening times but they turn the tables round really quickly, not the cheapest meal but so worth it.

Lizzie Buggies
Ballyconnell
25/05/2026: Really cool pub!
Great drinks, outside space, great ambiance and incredible service!
Hight five to Alan!!!!!
21/03/2026: Definitely one of the best pubs in Ireland (and I been to a lot😄) always a great atmosphere, with live music regularly. Lots of cosy corners as well as an outdoor courtyard with a stage for bands during the summer. Pool tables, jukebox, dartboard, Tv. Most importantly, great pints and friendly staff and clientele.

Aroma Coffee house
Ballyconnell
11/06/2026: Lovely food served in great big portions. You will never leave Aroma feeling hungry! It is affordable as well and all round a great spot to pop in for breakfast or lunch
28/04/2026: Ordered a coffee and scone, scone was toasted which I didn't ask for so I'm guessing it wasn't a fresh scone and didn't taste fresh.
Cost €8, Dublin prices in Ballyconnell.

Vista Mar II Restaurant and Wine bar
Ballyconnell
09/02/2026: Beautiful restaurant serving 5 * food and 5 * service. We were made to feel so welcome and we're truly spoilt with the incredible service and attention to detail topped off with delicious food all whilst sitting by a cosy log burning stove. I can recommend the Tapas especially the scallops and prawns and not forgetting the fillet steak in mushroom and masala sauce cooked to perfection. Thank you for a lovely evening.

Daily Brew
Ballyconnell
04/12/2025: My partner and I had heard about this cafe on Facebook so we thought we'd pop in on the way from Donegal down to Meath (we live in Donegal, he grew up in Ballyconnell, and the parents live in Kells,so we thought we'd pop by). It was very disappointing.
The Food is 1* at best. "home-made" means "heated up in-store"... It's all processed (minus the cakes which seem to be freshly made).
The waiting staff are very un-enthusiastic (bar one woman whose name I think was Annette or Anita.... She seemed to be genuine). The rest behave like they don't want to be there.
It seems if you are a friend of the owner you'll be smothered in love, otherwise, you'll be ignored and the un-enthusiastic girls will be left to deal with you.
The coffees and cakes are the only redeeming factors, but I'm very disappointed by my experience. We would have had more flavour if we'd waited to get McDonald's 20 minutes down the road.
21/11/2025: Absolutely loved my visit to this café! The atmosphere is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive. My order came out quickly, and everything tasted fresh. I’ll definitely be coming back.

Bayleaf Restaurant
Ballyconnell
25/07/2026: The smell of old grease and the sausages smells horrible. The toast was put on the table about 5 minutes before breakfast came... I do not recommend this place
25/05/2026: Excellent cuisine! Friendly staff! Normal prices! The only remark is that the garden is not used, for which we are very sorry! We hope that next time this problem will be fixed! Visit the restaurant!
