Peter's
Bantry legal town
23/07/2025: Crusty old cakes and an abusive owner.
Don’t go near this place.
Food was weeks old, dirty cups but don’t dare complain because you will regret it
17/07/2025: What an amazing cafe. Filled with artefacts from grandma's place. The coffee was superb. The atmosphere awesome. The scones...best I've ever had. Great conversation with Peter who does all the baking himself.

Anchor Tavern
Bantry legal town
08/07/2025: Great pub. Fun atmosphere and the landlord it the salt of the earth. A must if you visit Bantry.
27/05/2025: We were in Bantry a couple of years ago. My brother and I stopped in while our wives were shopping. We had a couple of pints and struck up a conversation with the barkeep. He had spent the summer in California. Nice way to spend an afternoon.

Grounded N71
Bantry legal town
16/11/2025: Great coffee in a picturesque setting
Very friendly staff
Dog friendly
Plenty of parking
24/10/2025: This little gem is worth walking an extra 5 minutes from the main square. Visited first with a local and returned with my husband, who is very picky about his mochas.
Lucky for us, Orla—the most gracious and wonderful barista—was there for both visits. In addition to her friendly demeanor, Orla serves up delicious coffee.
Though the delights of Grounded Coffee are served from a cute little food truck, they offer plenty of seating… even a cozy, inside area with heat and comfortable seating. And there are great views too.
Can’t wait to return!

Mermaid Chinese
Bantry legal town
16/11/2025: Me and my uncle were visiting from Belgium and were really looking forward to a nice chicken chow mein. We’re used to the European-style version — grilled, well-seasoned chicken with some soy flavour and crisp vegetables. Unfortunately, the chow mein we received here in Bantry was nothing like that. It was more like a wet, sloppy roast dinner, very soft and gooey, and after a few bites we just couldn’t eat it. I’m genuinely sorry to say it, but it was really disappointing.

Bay Diner
Bantry legal town
26/03/2026: Great mixed kebab, 12.50 for a good portion of meat. All ingredients seem fresh too. Amazing value for money. Great service 👍
08/03/2026: Overpriced processed crap, I don’t mind paying for southern fried chicken made in-house, the way it should be, but don’t give me processed shite for home made prices.

Ocean Restaurant
Bantry legal town
20/08/2025: Not impressed really, it's OK here. The food is well presented but fairly bland, dressed with sauces to give it some flavour. This really is a restaurant for older people who stay in the hotel. It tastes like mostly frozen products and at hotel prices. Not for me I'm afraid. Not a bad place, just not good enough to return.
31/05/2025: Disappointing!
The best thing about the restaurant is the interior.
We had mussels in white wine sauce twice, and until today I couldn't believe it was possible to make them so badly.
The mussels were dry, lukewarm, and came in a mere dollop of sauce.
They tasted as if they had been cooked for a while beforehand and then simply added to the plate with the sauce.
There was more than enough garlic baguette, but for €18.50, there should have been a few more mussels (with some flavor!). The water with fresh lemon served for washing hands was still warmer than the mussels, even after we had finished eating.
Unfortunately, a disappointment with a dish that could have been prepared so easily.

Mogul Restaurant
Bantry legal town
28/07/2025: We enjoyed a lovely evening meal in Moghal Indian Restaurant. Eugene took time to give us recommendations from the menu, depending on our likes and spiciness! He was not at all intrusive while we made our choices. We took Eugene's suggestions which did not disappoint, compliments to the chef, the food was delicious. You can bring your own beer or wine which was brilliant also. Each dish was freshly cooked, piping hot and really tasty. The ambience is relaxed and friendly, special thanks Eugene. Moghal Indian Restaurant in Bantry is well worth a visit as a sit down guest or for a takeaway.
10/06/2025: Accueil charmant un dimanche soir assez tard. Service discret et attentionné. Cadre agréable et Plats délicieux. Merci 😃

Maxol Service Station Bantry
Bantry legal town
08/05/2025: A weird place for a service station. Very cramped and the fuel is not super cheap. If there are ore than a few cars in the area it is difficult to maneorve. The staff are very friendly and helpful and it is a well stocked shop.
