The best restaurants in Clare

03/11/2025: Easy & Quick Takeaway. Nothing more, nothing less.

12/10/2025: Came down to kilkee to celebrate my birthday and popped in here for fish and chips, absolutely wonderful service, id absolutely recommend

27/07/2025: A bald man working there is the worst treatment anyone could possibly have. We asked the owner if we could bring in outside food, and she said yes. Then, when the man saw us with the food, he told us we couldn't bring in outside food and that "what the hell were we doing eating outside food in his pub?" We put the food away without arguing after telling him his wife had told us she'd left us, and he didn't care. We then left the establishment and returned to use the bathroom, and when I was peeing, he opened the door and started yelling at me that this wasn't a public restaurant until he kicked me out. As a 16-year-old boy, this really bothered me and I felt humiliated. He treated us that way because we were Spanish; it was basically racist. After kicking us out of the pub, he even wanted us to leave the street and, screaming, he chased us out. The worst experience in Ireland, never go there!

04/07/2025: My wife Donna and I walked in and immediately felt like we were home. Joan was a very gracious hostess. Joan gave us the history of the establishment and the town. We came back the next day because it was a great place. Ireland in itself is a great place. All the people we met during out holiday made us feel like we were home.

22/12/2025: Bless is my favorite cafe. The staff, the food, the atmosphere are top notch. great place to meet up with friends. Highly recommended !

09/12/2025: Always a lovely place to go for lunch, treats and a cuppa. And the breakfast… one word, yum. The friendliest of staff too. Highly recommend.

26/07/2025: This bar has a great atmosphere, with live music. The only downside is that the waitress makes fun of foreigners' accents.

09/07/2025: Was a great pub. New management in the past few weeks (2025) has really brought it downhill. Bad atmosphere, and vodkas only after a certain time? What kind of pub does that?

27/10/2025: Absolutely massive portions of delicious foods.

03/10/2025: Traveling through (American)and wanted pizza. Very good and highly recommend. Got the “Works”.

17/11/2025: I do not mean to damn with faint praise. The Myles Creek Guesthouse was a fine place to stay on a slow off-season tour of Ireland's west coast. Our room was small and a little careworn, but perfectly comfortable and, for the price, a good deal. The amenities suffer a bit in comparison to other, nicer B&Bs we've encountered on this trip, but it a pleasant (and surprisingly quiet) place to rest our heads. Kilkee's main drag has lots of pub and food options -- or would in season, but most places are closed in mid-November. We enjoyed our dinner at Hickie's a short walk away.

04/10/2025: Checked in today and we decided to get some food was greated by the friendliest of staff and given menus, we ordered and the food arrived extremely fast. We ordered 2 x soup and a panini and toasted special absolutely top class this place is doing ir right amazing food & class staff well done to all cant wait ti come back

17/12/2025: Great location for delicious breakfast after leaving Shannon AirPort at 7am.

13/12/2025: Beautiful place food excellent it is divided into 2 businesses a coffee shop and a restaurant staff very friendly

07/12/2025: Very nice and helpful staff Food is great

07/11/2025: Ordered online through just eat to get food on my break, we have an hour for break, the food took 50 minutes to arrive and after 50 minutes of waiting, it was the wrong food, when I tried to call back to the restaurant a few times, they would not pick up the call and it was very frustrating because due to this I was unable to have any food for my break since I only had 10 minutes left, and 8 of those were spent trying to call the restaurant, I'm very unhappy with this

31/01/2026: We had a delicious meal here and felt really welcomed by the staff. Cosy, warm and homely all at once I had the hake & prawns in garlic butter with creamy mash - cleaned the plate! Such a fine pint of Guinness too! Thanks for having us!

17/12/2025: The atmosphere of the place was amazing. It is located in the middle of nowhere (which made it a nice experience of us) and the inside is cozy and well decorated. Great food and service, no complains about it!

04/01/2026: What a lovely place to stay. The staff are very friendly and helpful, and the food is gorgeous, well presented. We come for the walks on the beach.

07/12/2025: You can just come for hot tea and dessert after a refreshing walk on the beach

15/11/2025: We stayed one night in The Coast Lodge. Our host was extremely kind and friendly and the room was superb. We had an amazing view over the ocean and the room was clean, cosy and extremely spacious. The breakfast was delicious with everything you could possibly wish for - cereals, fresh fruit, organic yogurt and honey, crepes, scones and a full Irish or any combination you liked. We will most definitely be back- it beats Trump’s place down the road hands down!!

06/11/2025: What a beautiful place! Incredible views just a stones throw from the beach. Food is great and staff so attentive and friendly. If I could live there I would!❤️❤️❤️

10/12/2025: I flew into to Shannon from the UK on a business trip. I ask a local man for recommendations to eat . He told me head to the pantry Inside a shopping mall. I took his recommendation and went to the pantry . The place was spotless and there was music playing to fill the place with a soothing atmosphere. I then approached the cashier to order and was met by a super friendly waitress named Caroline. She was ever so kind and friendly and made the most wonderful coffee I ever had . An absolutely lovely waitress. I sat down with the food brought to me at an efficient pace and eat pancakes with bacon and my god I was transported to another dimension. So overall great place to eat with a wonderful attententive waitress and great food . Thanks Caroline and thanks pantry . Five stars.

09/12/2025: The food was extremely overpriced and for the price of what I'd ordered i expected better quality, although service was quick I can't fault that, it was quite unnerving for one of the staff, I believe her name is Caroline to have stared directly at myself and my partner for the duration of our lunch as I'd actually caught her a few times and it was very off putting.

04/10/2025: Excellent, very friendly team, always a pleasure!

02/10/2025: Lovely chilled atmosphere. Pity there weren't more healthy and vegan food choices

28/10/2025: Great atmosphere, Great drinks and great service. Love the antiques that are all throughout the pub!

03/08/2025: Fantastic atmosphere, we absolutely loved the live music 🎶

16/11/2025: A rip-off in the best tradition! Couldn't call it a breakfast. The pack of sausages and bacon will stretch a long way. Targeted at the one time only customer.

31/10/2025: Good stone oven cooked thin pizza with good waitstaff that answered my questions on the pizzas.
