Cush

Ballycotton

08/12/2025: Great food and very friendly staff. Always a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

07/12/2025: A cold wet and windy evening in Ballycotton, this is the closest pub to the pier, where water rages and crashed over the breaker onto the pier and street, the perfect experience, pre-pints. The bar was warm as was the welcome. I was looking for a pint of local Beamish or Murphys, but was willing to settle for my favourite pint, Guinness.

Blackbird

Ballycotton

11/01/2026: You cannot beat a proper Irish bar with live music EVERY WEEK, multiple times at that. They always have a mix, it could be rock, folk, trad, dj, and general mix. They also serve food through the trawler boys. And they cater for afters of weddings or birthdays etc.

03/01/2026: Great place for food and atmosphere. Well done Mossie.

The Schooner

Ballycotton

11/01/2026: Food is always so fresh and delicious. Their scampi is worth travelling for as is all the fish. The roast dinners are always gorgeous and tender, and homemade. Then for lunch, the soups and paninis are delicious, especially with the homecooked ham in the toasted sambos.

23/09/2025: We arrived at night, when all the cats are gray, and although the room seemed expensive, well, oh well... In the morning, I moved the duvet and found a tissue stuck on it: Did we sleep on unchangeable sheets? The carpet, I think, was pissed off by the vacuum cleaner. Anyway, I'm giving it two stars for the breakfast, which wasn't bad. I don't recommend it.

Bayview

Ballycotton

20/07/2025: Lovely terraces area to look out at the coast. Lovely staff and the wine was fabulous!

04/07/2025: Truly the most considerate staff going. I’ve never seen so many waiters and waitresses (amongst others) work so perfectly. I could only dream of service this good again
