03/09/2021: Just visited Sweet n Green for the first time. Absolutely fabulous food. We will be back!

01/09/2021: Nice restaurant with a good kitchen that won't disappoint you. They are taking de covid rules very serious and staff is very friendly.

26/08/2021: We stayed in Bunratty for a week and on the first day got a delivery from Tesco. Got talking to the delivery guy and asked where he'd recommend for a family meal. He told us to head for the Abbey Tavern.We went for a meal and liked it so much, we went out of our way to go back there a second time. We had three small kids with us (who can be a nuisance in a restaurant) and the staff couldn't have been nicer to them. All of the staff were very friendly.The menu was really good and they do a good pint of Guinness. They had no difficulty adapting a dish for my wife's dietary needs. I had the pork medallions on the first visit and the seabass on the second visit. Both delicious!The kids menu had proper decent food on it.Would definitely recommend and would absolutely go back.

05/09/2021: Helpful staff. Lovely surroundings and good food if you want to give yourself by a treat.

04/09/2021: Only one word really- amazing! Fantastic building with really comfortable spacious rooms, comfortable beds. Excellent grounds to explore, Excellent pool and gym facilities. Good food. Amazingly helpful staff. Overall a wonderful experience.

09/09/2021: Love the food here! One of my favourite places to eat! Try the sushi, curries and Bento box's, they are all amazing, they do specials everyday and post it to Facebook. If you're meat free call for an alternative special. The manager/ owner is always extremely pleasant and helpful.

08/09/2021: Wonderful food, hosting and atmosphere

05/09/2021: €50 for the surprise seafood courses was well worth it!

29/08/2021: A unique and delicious dining experience! The surprise menu was exceptional and staff were so welcoming and extremely considerate with regards to our food preferences! I would highly highly recommend.

10/09/2021: A great attraction however, parking for somebody with a mobility issue quite a challange as parking across the road. Should have more parking closer to centre. There was plenty parking for tourist busses in front of centre.

10/09/2021: Hay que intentar llegar por la tarde, para ver la puesta de sol. Dejar el coche en el Parking 10€ por persona, andar hasta un pequeño castillo unos diez minutos. Tiene un centro de visitantes pero todo muy vacío por el COVID.

06/09/2021: Great vibe. Quality food. Lovely outdoor fining area.

02/09/2021: A lovely bar. Staff are lovely too. They have music some nights. Also do bar food

08/09/2021: We stayed at a lot of hotels in Ireland. Vaughan's Lodge was our favorite! The food was outstanding. (Order the lamb!!!) The service was excellent taking us to the golf course and back. The rooms were great. It was an absolute pleasure to stay here!

02/09/2021: We had the chowder, fish and chips and scampi and chips. The portions were very generous, chips were amazing and I had the best pint of Guinness I’ve ever had in Ireland for 30 years, Vaughans is well worth a visit

04/09/2021: A have to try for good chicken when you come to Ennis

01/09/2021: Great chicken and chicken burgers

10/09/2021: High on my list of best Irish attraction for tourist. I love the folk village for it's atmosphere of 'old Ireland'. Between that, the animals and the castle I've never seen someone not enjoy it. But would especially recommend for foreign tourists wanting to see Ireland.

09/09/2021: Excellent. Good day out. More to see and do compared with the Blarney Castle

09/09/2021: There's a good vibe at Knox's, even during pandemic restrictions. There is a good range of typical pub food, all well cooked and presented by friendly staff Sadly no live music at the moment( pandemic related) but hopefully it will return soon

08/09/2021: Lovely staff and very quant place

09/09/2021: Love this place. Always a lovely welcome and the food is brilliant.

04/09/2021: Good food at very reasonable prices?

02/09/2021: Great place to eat. Great host who is warm and friendly and welcoming. Brilliant wine selection and the food was unbelievably good. Have eaten in a lot of places and this is up there with the best in Ireland.. Couldn't recommend it enough

30/08/2021: We stayed one night at this restaurant with rooms and it is important to separate the two.The restaurant was amazing , beautifully set for dinner, very classy . We were greeted with a warm welcome from Kieran and shown to our table.The food was outstanding, impeccably presented and served . Good menu choices and good portion sizes. Crab starter was delicious. We both had fish (Salmn and Halibut) for main, it was fresh and cooked well. Desserts were a work of art Overall excellent experience for the restaurant .We arrived late afternoon to check into our room and you could already see the chefs working and smell the most delicious smells coming from the kitchen. So that was a great start as we unpacked the car.Our welcome and the information given was excellent including where to have breakfast which was a great recommendation . However , the bedroom was very disappointing and in stark contrast to the elegant restaurant. but at 80 euros it was value for money for one night but the rooms could be so much more . Perhaps more in keeping with the quality and standards of the restaurant and charge a little more .We will go to Oar restaurant again and look forward to our return visit but we will stay somewhere different in Doolin. Doolin it self was an absolute cracking find. We loved it. So the dining option at the Oar is a great asset to this fabulous village.It is hard to write a negative review so I felt it important to separate the restaurant out from the accommodation.When staying in restaurants with rooms in England both restaurant and the room are of an an equal standard for an overall experience.
