The best restaurants in Lahinch

26/07/2025: Absolutely amazing pastries! Both savoury and sweet were delicious and they had a lot of selection. If they have any pastel de nata left definitely get one because I think it’s even better than the ones I ate in Portugal!

21/07/2025: I would go as far as saying one of my favourite bakery’s in Ireland - absolutely incredible with Natas to die for!!!

08/08/2025: We are finishing up a week in Lahinch and we ate here with our two young kids three times, it was so good! We loved everything about it, the atmosphere, the service and the food! They were super great with our kids, bringing coloring, bringing their food at first. And the food was just so good. It kept us coming back! We highly recommend checking it out if you’re in Lahinch!

06/08/2025: We loved Kenny's - kid and dog friendly with a fantastic pint of Guinness. Outdoor area is excellent. Food was superb pub grub.

21/07/2025: My wife and I just spent 2.5 days in the County Clare region near the cliffs of Moher. On the recommendation of our accommodations host, we decided to try Dodi. Be advised that depending on the time of day there may be a bit of a wait. There’s but a handful of tables, but usually the wait wasn’t more than 10-15 minutes as people move in and out pretty quickly. First impressions were that the staff were all super nice and friendly, and wanted to make sure we were taken care of. As soon as you’re seated they bring some menus offer you a craft of water and say they’ll be back to take your order, and surely they do. My wife and I got the eggs over greens and added the bacon, and the eggs were perfectly poached, and the bacon was so tender but at the same time crispy and so good. I love Irish bacon! We also ordered lattes and cappuccinos and we must say they make the best we’ve had in Ireland thus far. We’re originally from Seattle, so that’s high marks!! Now, in my opinion the star of the show was the scone with butter and raspberry jam! I think I could seriously live off of them! They are perfectly crumbly and soft, and the butter is amazing, paired with locally crafted raspberry jam. Service and food, everything was top notch and so good; that we repeated it the NEXT day! My only small gripe is… it’s a sauna in there. Anyway, if you’re in town, do yourself the favor and go to Dodi, maybe even go back the next day!

19/07/2025: Came for the coffee and it did not disappoint. Stayed for the atmosphere. Fabulous spot

10/08/2025: A friendly pub, but there's a noticeable lack of effort to understand foreign customers. The food is delicious as it is.

08/08/2025: Not a great experience. Microwaved food. Tough chicken, lumpy mash potatoes, tasteless sauce, soggy lasagne that tasted clearly defrosted and microwaved. The seats had torn fabric, the decor is old and in need of freshening, dirty toilets with broken toilet seats. So disappointing. The only positive is the nice and friendly staff, they were very pleasant, enthusiastic and helpful.

15/08/2025: Paid €89 for what was basically chipper food you could get next door. Burgers came with “crispy bacon” that was just rasher fat, salad full of onion cores and wilted leaves, frozen chips, and €12 chicken satay that was just a fillet cut into five pieces with some sauce. The pasta was watery and bleak, bulked out with carrot tops, while flies crawled up the windows. Staff even nipped to Centra mid-service to buy cranberry sauce. Please avoid. I never ever write reviews but i owe it to you to write this one 😂 far better options in town

10/08/2025: We had a delicious meal here during our stopover in Lahinch. The staff is very friendly and service-oriented, and the food is fresh and delicious. The fish and chips are highly recommended.

19/08/2025: Dima from the restaurant was quality. He not only provided excellent service but went above and beyond to make sure we were accommodated. Happy we were able to experience this place.

18/08/2025: Very comfortable hotel. Great staff and spotlessly clean. We stayed for 1 night in a king room and other party stayed in a twin.

10/08/2025: Extremely ignorant staff member "ripped" the menu out of my hand after placing my order! Also a dog in in the cafe! Disgusting! Avoid!🤮

10/08/2025: A very warm welcome and good food, a change from a traditional pub. A big plus for the gluten-free brownie.

02/10/2024: 这份牛排口感极佳，medium cooked肉质鲜嫩多汁，每一口都充满了浓郁的风味。搭配的红酒质感顺滑，香气与牛排完美融合，为整个用餐体验增色不少。餐厅的环境也很舒适，服务细致周到，是一次令人难忘的美食享受。我强烈推荐给所有热爱牛排的人，相信你一定不会失望。

10/09/2024: I recently had the pleasure of dining at Vaughan, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. This charming and cozy restaurant is perfect for special occasions, offering an intimate atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The food was absolutely delicious, with every dish bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. The attention to detail, both in the service and the menu, made the evening exceptional. Whether you're celebrating a special moment or simply want to enjoy a fantastic meal, Vaughan is the perfect choice. Highly recommended.

19/08/2025: Myself and my three girls went there for a birthday meal for my eldest girl, while we were on hols in Lehinch. Excellent restaurant, the service was fast and very good, the food was very, very good, fresh with good sized portions. As I said it was my daughters birthday meal, and I had a birthday cake bought. The wait receptionist took it from me and said they had birthday candle and would bring the cake out when we wanted. They did this, and sung happy birthday to her, providing plates and forks for us to use. My youngest, 5 yrs. old, wanted blackberry in her water and left us to ask the waitress for some. She was treated kindly and came back delighted that she had asked. I will definitely go there again, cannot say enough good things about the restaurant or the food. Very pleased with it.

11/08/2025: Food was lovely we got the chicken curry half and half nice place small but good

24/07/2025: Absolutely spotless pub and very welcoming The owner gave us a tour and explained the whole story of the place and how it had been lovingly re built . A great place to visit 👌🏼

29/04/2025: Myself and my wife visited this Bar on numerous occasions during our stay in Lahinch. We enjoyed the atmosphere and the relaxing comfort in the bar, Tommy the owner was a Gentleman very welcoming and friendly, His staff were very friendly and helpful, his establishment in Lahinch was the cleanest bar and best run that we had seen in all our travels around Ireland 🇮🇪 we would highly recommend this Bar for a great night out

18/07/2025: The true essence of Irish character, hospitality and a good laugh. Trust in Chris from Muff to pour you a pint! 🤗

01/07/2025: Best Guinness pour in Ireland goes to Peter! Thank you for your hospitality, sir. Tremendous patio with splendid views. Gorgeous town. P Frawleys is a must stop while you're traveling to the Cliffs of Moher or staying in town.

27/07/2025: Queues out the door but no vegan pastries :'(

26/05/2025: Completely flawless perfection.
