Vandeleur Walled Garden & Visitor Centre
Kilrush
19/08/2025: My parents have an annual pass so I visit regularly when Im in Clare. Strongly recommend for any day weather is looking a bit rainy ( or not up for traffic to coast). Never far from shelter and fantastic way to spend a day! Beautiful gardens. Great cafe with great staff, although Brambles took over cafe they have kept original local staff. They are so friendly and brighten everybody's day. Lots of inside and outside seating.
They also sell plants at reasonable prices. New Kilkenny gift shop that also has local pictures has opened on site. Well maintained paths outside grounds through the woods with options for longer or shorter walks. There is a Park run in woods on Saturdays
Annual pass for gardens is only 35 and 10% discount in cafe. Worth it for anyone living or visiting Clare regularly. Everything other than walled garden is free to enter so can still enjoy the rest if on a budget
08/08/2025: Used to be a great spot to bring the family but now charging too high a prices for the walled garden itself (which used to be free)

Bowman Lane

09/09/2025: Absolutely delicious breaded chicken breast (one was curry and one was parmigiana) with cooked cabbage, carrots and a huge portion of Irish mashed potatoes!!
Okay so the chairs on the patio were a bit warn but if you want some delicious home cooked food at a reasonable price..this is your place. We found our servers to very pleasant and friendly although we only saw them to order and when we got our food.
02/09/2025: The food was fresh and amazing. There is always fresh baked goods...excellent scones. A great place to stop in for a tea or coffee

11/09/2025: Absolutely love Ali G Kilrush! The pizza is always fresh, loaded with toppings, and full of flavor. Their Southern Fried Chicken is crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside – easily one of the best in town! The staff is friendly, service is quick, and the place is always clean. Whether you're craving a cheesy pizza or crunchy chicken, Ali G never disappoints. Highly recommended for anyone passing through Kilrush!

Silver House
Kilrush
05/08/2025: Excellent Chinese, full menu with lots of choices. Service was friendly and the food delicious. We ate in the dining room and enjoyed a pot of tea with our meal. They were very busy with take out, yet took great care of us too. Highly reccomend!
26/07/2025: The food was well prepared and very fresh. I had the General Tso Chicken It was very tasty. Plus 10 stars for the tea! A classic Chinese black tea which paired well with my meal. My experience was excellent! Our server was very attentive and genuinely concerned that I was completely satisfied with my meal. The restaurant was clean and I noticed that they sanitized the tables and chairs after each guest. So very important in today's world. As a visitor to Kilrush I was happy to visit Silver House and would dine here again.

The Potter's Hand Cafe
Kilrush
12/08/2025: Very pretty café. Very friendly service and great food. Very nice gift items.
11/08/2025: It's not a cafe, it's an Irish Tale....
Update to my last year's review, this place keeps surprising me in the best ways ever. I went with family early yesterday and I enjoyed being the first there (that's why no one in photos 😊☺️) and I enjoyed a great cup of tea made with so much love. And the art ceramic collection was beyond imagination, I couldn't resist and bought three pieces for my study room... the staff are gorgeous Irish ladies that made my day with their kindness and sweetness... thier excellence is consistent 👌👍they also provide art pottery lessons 🖌🥣please continue to read my last year's review below...
Last year, I went with family and friends to this lovely cafe based on a recommendation from a friend, oh my goodness, what a place. I don't know how to start. Wow is a tiny word to describe it. I was amazed to the point that I forgot to take photos of the food. The place is very cosy, comfortable, and full of art. It's a cafe that you will enjoy food and coffee, but your soul will be satisfied with the art and books around. I got mushrooms soup and some sandwiches 🥪 so delicious and made with love. Then I got a cup of cappuccino and it was a decent 👌 cup, Italian top class quality. Then I couldn't resist the cakes, I had a jam sponge cake and brownies. My friend ate three pieces of cake. I just couldn't believe how great the food was. The place was so clean and the couch beside the fire was magical. There was a bookshelf full of a big selection of books. Art paintings on the walls, very positive messages everywhere. Then, the two ladies running the place, two Irish angels, very friendly and helpful. They welcomed us and they made sure that we were well served. I felt like I am in their home, not a cafe. If you are in Ireland or justing visiting, then you must go there, a lifetime experience. Next time, I will take photos for sure.

A1 Asian Food Take Away
Kilrush
24/08/2025: Sehr leckeres Essen, freundliches Person, jedes Gericht wird auf Wunsch als vegetarische Variante mit Tofu zubereitet. Wenn wir wieder in der Nähe sein sollten, würden wir immer wieder hier etwas holen
12/08/2025: Had one of the best satays I've had in Ireland here. So flavorful and they accommodated a special request happily. We were going to order from China Express but we're staying in the owners airbnb off his house and had to leave early because of disgusting conditions all over the house black floors dirty greasy kitchen and finding mold on the bedding caused us to finally leave. We've been cleaning their house all weekend because he wouldn't offer a refund until we threatened legal actions for then finding mold in the beds. He was not apologetic at all and I wouldn't want to see what they are feeding people from their kitchen or treating their customers if they didn't care about guests that had this trip booked all year and this is the kind of service they give. Baby was coming off the floors black with filth in their BNB. I'd had to see what the kitchen of China Express looks like after seeing the state of their home. We enjoyed A1 so much and the price and value was good for money and will be back if we are ever in kilrush. The service was friendly and I appreciate the extra broccoli!

The Haven Arms
Kilrush
20/08/2025: Quick service and very tasty food
18/08/2025: Stopped off here today about 4.30 and ordered salmon and then three other customers came and sat at table beside us. They waited a while and then asked could they order food the waiter told them to wait while he cleaned a table which I thought strange and then he disappeared didn’t return to them and they walked out. We waited 30 mins for our food. When it came cold lumpy potatoes and salmon, peas and turnip which was cold. And served with tartare sauce very strange … I ate it because I was starving but for the cost never again. I have no issue with paying for good food and service but this is not the place to go for it.

Roma Take Away
Kilrush
05/07/2025: It was ok, on the google images it shows pizza with a nice char on the crust but mine was a bit limp and underdone. I asked for Salami but they put ham and when challenged they said ham is what they call Salami, so that’s a bit random. I wasn’t offered a replacement, which would be the appropriate customer service response, so they lost a star there. The toppings were kinda just dumped in the middle too, instead of evenly spread around and that’s a bit lazy. It’s a big place but no tables or chairs are offered. I had to return for napkins as they weren’t provided. They do not have shakers on the counter for chilli flakes, oregano, salt or pepper. They only accept cash and that is obviously inappropriate for a business and an inconvenience for the customer so that took another star. The pizza tasted ok apart from that ultra processed ham which I removed. I would probably go back but ask for the pizza to be well done and replace the salami (ham) with pepperoni. Overall I was disappointed but with just a little effort this could really be a great Pizza restaurant. Everyone working there was Eastern European and it somehow felt like it may have changed hands recently. They were fast to serve the food, the ingredients seemed fresh, they were friendly and the kitchen looked clean. A bit of customer service training would help them to better understand the expectations customers have after handing over their hard earned money. To end, they offer good value for the overall quality of the food and the pizza dough itself is very good.
26/05/2025: Very nice food staff are very friendly,

Coffey's Restaurant
Kilrush
05/08/2025: My wife and I dined here and ordered two battered fish (hake) and chips. The batter was very thick and gooey -it seemed very undercooked. The fish was not fresh with a tough dry texture.
We mentioned this to the staff and they came over with a temperature probe and stuck in in the fish right in front of us. They said it was cool but was probably at the right temperature when they served it. They however agreed to take it away. They then bought the same piece back saying they re-fried it, but it really was no better. They also gave us a small piece of battered cod to try but this was even worse; it was very dry, chewy and salty - clearly not fresh.
Other reviews of this restaurant are good, so I'm not sure what went wrong this time.
24/06/2025: Food was alright, staff are friendly
