The best restaurants in Kilkee

26/11/2025: I had the breakfast bap here. Was fantastic, as was the coffee and service. A real gem of a place, and clearly very well run. We arrived at Kilkee in very unfortunate circumstances, and were afforded a private space by the owners, who supported us during an incredibly difficult time. Kindness knows no bounds, and we are forever grateful for the support they showed us.

19/11/2025: I can’t recommend this place enough, looking great food and an even better view ? Diamond rocks is the place for you. Why pay for the cliffs of Moher when you can enjoy the diamond rocks sipping a freshly squeezed orange juice from the comfort of this stunning cafe.

25/09/2025: Very friendly, lovely people, lovely food.

24/09/2025: Great place for some pastries, food and coffee. Two friendly employee working here, very welcoming. Prepared fresh food right in front of customers. Food tasted great! Highly recommended!

02/10/2025: The name of the hotel doesn't match the reality. Our room faced the back, no view. For the price we paid, I think it's a rip-off.

30/09/2025: We loved our visit to Kilkee and staying at the Bayview. It's a well appointed hotel with excellent service and attention to small details.

03/09/2025: Gorgeous place, lovely drinks and cake options. Seems like a popular place to stop and I can see why. Highly recommend.

14/08/2025: Been wanting to come try Holly’s cafe having followed them on Instagram for a while now! We dropped by yesterday - there was such a nice relaxed vibe, food, coffee & service was great! We will be back soon!!

31/07/2025: Unique bar/pub with its labyrinthine spaces and decor Very popular with locals - large selection of beers

05/07/2025: Great old bar that has live music.

22/08/2025: Great place for live music . GREAT NIGHT OUT.

14/07/2025: Too much fun, too good, everyone sings and is kind, warm and welcoming, the live music is great

29/08/2025: We had an excellent dinner at Naughton’s Bar in Kilkee. Our group of five showed up with one more than our reservation allowed, but Elaine handled it with ease and got us seated quickly without fuss. The service throughout the evening was prompt, friendly, and clearly well organized — the whole team is on point. Before dinner we had the pleasure of chatting with Paddy Collins behind the bar. His knowledge of Kilkee’s history, his great personality, and his warm hospitality set the tone for the night. He’s a gem. The food itself was absolutely delicious — starters and mains alike were top-notch, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. Combine that with the very fair pricing and you get excellent value for money. Naughton’s is truly a testament to what makes Kilkee special: great food, genuine people, and welcoming service. Big thanks to Elaine, Paddy, and the whole team for a wonderful evening. We’ll definitely be back!

28/08/2025: Arrived and it took 10 minutes for someone to take our food order (no biggy) the food was excellent I would recommend the burger. Nicest food in Kilkee. However when we were trying to leave (we understood we had our table for 2 hours) we struggled to find someone to get the bill from (for 5 mins) A waitress came over and asked us nicely to leave as she had another table coming in. We mentioned that we never got the bill and she apologised and left. 5 minutes later my grandfather goes up to the bar to pay the bill as still no sign of anyone dropping it to our table. After the bill is paid my grandfather returns to the table and briefly gathers his things (in his late 80s) before the manager comes over and asks us to leave again? Just left us with a sour taste in our mouths. I will of course be returning to naughtons as I have since I was a child with hopefully better communication between staff management and customers.
