22/03/2026: Excellent food and service here today at the Bramley Lodge, 22/03/26. Colm den was well happy with his burger

09/03/2026: The dishes are delicious, the servers are lovely, and we’ll gladly come back. 😊

21/02/2026: Popped in on a wet Saturday evening - they don't take bookings so were lucky they had a table as was quite busy. Food was excellent, we shared the prawn pil-pil for starters and it was quite different from a standard dish. For mains we had a Gubeen pizza and the confit of duck. Share a gorgeous blueberry cheesecake for dessert. Including a nice bottle of Alborino, the bill came to €93 which was excellent value for the quality of food.

23/03/2026: Lovely bar with the most amazing seafood spice bag.

18/03/2026: They serve excellent fish and chips, and I really like that it comes with a salad, a great and quite uncommon touch. I hope they keep it that way. The staff are very friendly, and the place has a lovely atmosphere. I’ll definitely be returning

16/10/2025: Amazing taste esp the fried salmon risotto

10/10/2025: A simple restaurant with delicious Italian food. In a place where not everything is open on weekends, they were kind enough to adjust the tables so the group wouldn't be separated.

21/03/2026: Visited recently as heard under new ownership. Breakfast remains very tasty. Staff excellent. Fab coffee, now serving three fools. Just one minor fault and maybe just personal preference.. the toast is served pre buttered. Feels a bit like a hospital and toast gets soggy very quick then.

28/01/2026: We walked in the Wild with no reservation on a January Saturday night. Thankfully, they could seat us and we had a fabulous meal! The atmosphere was amazing, lots of people in for dinner and a lovely buzz around. The decor is so cosy. The goats cheese bonbons were so flavourful and the chicken wings, while spicy, went down a treat. For mains, the creamy hazelnut papardelle and Asian flavours beef cheek were incredible. The staff were so attentive and friendly.

12/03/2026: A quick lunch turned into a culinary delight that lasted longer, we had venison that was cooked to perfection, I've not been in the castle hotel for many years but im glad to say the quality is as it was then, exquisite.

01/03/2026: Centrally located in Macroom on the Main Street. The hotel is a hive of activity boasting the hotel itself, a bar and eating area, a restaurant, with a swimming pool and gym in the leisure centre. The menu is substantial with plenty of options on the set menu's as well as the daily specials, which change daily. Staff are all friendly, pleasant and professional.

05/12/2025: Amazing oysters, the sole was out of this world good and the smoked potatoes were just the cherry on the top. I was so thankful they got me the last table in the place!! I'll definitely be back (and will book next time)
