24/01/2026: Politely shown to our table, lovely lunch menu, the food was very nice,staff very attentive. Lovely place to go for a social drink or for dining.

18/01/2026: Staff were lovely and very friendly. The food was delicious and great value.

10/12/2025: The Talbot Midleton is a great hotel in a good location with a bus stop right outside. All of the staff that we met were friendly and professional whatever their job. We had lovely food in the bar and there was a good selection for breakfast. Our room was warm and comfortable. There is just one thing that I don't like and that is the shower curtain! A nice bath screen would be so much better. As repeat guests We once again totally enjoyed our stay and we'll be back. Thank you and well done everyone at the Talbot Midleton.

10/12/2025: We were a family of 24 staying overnight and attending the Christmas party. What a great night from start to finish. From the minute we arrived at check in the staff were so friendly and helpful. This is our 2nd Christmas staying here and we will definitely be back next year. A wonderful hotel with amazing staff. Thank you for making our weekend so memorable. All the rooms were beautiful too.

21/01/2026: So I really didnt want to do a public review, so out of professional courtesy I emailed the establishment first a few days ago to receive neither a positive or negative reply. Well my partner emailed. So basically as I said in the email the staff and their behavior needs to be looked at closely. I dont want to repeat what i said about one member of staff publicaly because i dont think it would be fair on her. I will edit to say it wasnt at all negative. I will stand by my email tho that it is run like a creche. Obviously cheap labour being exausted.

04/08/2025: Will definitely be back for the Turkey & Ham, so delicious 🤤 The breakfast (all day?!?) was really lovely and €14 is a relatively okay price for the size and included tea. The waiters were really friendly and the outdoor seating is gorgeous

02/01/2026: Not respect full staff. Visiting again and again to leave the place early.

22/12/2025: We're a large party with a lot of different food and drink orders. Portions were generous and the food was wonderful! You can't get fresher fish or mussels. Much better than in America. Friendly and welcoming, this is a great little spot!

07/01/2026: We booked on New Year's Day based on the menu advertised at the door that day. When we went that evening the 2 dishes, muscles and steak, that we had travelled for were not available. It was so disappointing 😞 I ordered the fish which was to have a herb gnocchi with it but instead I got a type of potato cake thing. So all in all it was so disappointing. On the flip side tho, the staff were polite and attentive.

05/01/2026: Wild is a treat and a fantastic experience for any food lover.

05/01/2026: Incredible scallops...which are sometimes hard to find. ❤️
