The best restaurants in Kilkee

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.

18/02/2026: Beautiful restaurant, the waitress (blonde woman with pink shoes) for lunch time was lovely!! Very professional and kind. Nice spot in Kilkee

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.
