Murphy's Restaurant
Castletownbere
30/08/2025: I ordered a salad with shrimps — it was incredible! The shrimps are huge, juicy and simply divine in taste. I also tried the duck — it was incredibly tasty, tender and well-cooked. Very satisfied, I will definitely come again!
24/08/2025: Tasty, uncomplicated food, reasonably priced, friendly service. We had haddock goujons, chicken supreme, sticky toffee pudding, rhubarb crumble, teas, coffees etc and all were excellent.

Lynch's on the Pier
Castletownbere
09/10/2025: Busy place with great breakfasts, for the hungry! Pleasant staff and quick service. Nice lunch menu too.
25/09/2025: So, it's the only option for lunch in a town with a harbor. It wasn't exactly picturesque, you sit outside with a view of the parking lot and in the background an industrial, probably fishing harbor. So what? The service is pleasant, they keep asking, until we finally managed to order fish soup, crab sandwiches and fried fish fingers. Yes, everything is delicious, at a good price (except for cider for 7.50 EUR), but the selection puts this establishment at the level of a very good bistro. However, the lunch is good and the journey further west of the peninsula can continue.

Dog friendly also. We would definitely call again.

Breen's Lobster Bar
Castletownbere
14/09/2025: I had supper twice at Breens in mid-September 2025 and enjoyed both meals thoroughly. Though lord knows I don't need those extra calories, each meal I went with an appetizer, main and desert. The real highlight was the pan seared lemon sole with white wine, lemon and dill sauce I had as a main course. I can't remember ever having a better meal of fish (and I've eaten a LOT of fish!). The desserts and apples were also two thumbs up. The service was also first class - very friedly folks but also quick and helpful without being intrusive and bothersome. While there were a lot of tourists there, there were obviously many locals and regulars there, too, which is a great sign. If you are in Castletownbere and looking for delicious seafood in a friendly atmosphere with fantastic service then give Breens a go - you won't be disappointed!!
28/08/2025: Went in to enquire if they have anything that is gluten and dairy free as my partner has intolerances to both. The server was incredibly rude as she handed me a menu and said “there you go now you can make up your own mind” and then turned to her colleague at the bar and muttered something under her breath. The menu didn’t have allergens listed, except for just saying GF on one or two dishes. Her attitude was so unwelcoming I just walked back out the door. It was disheartening as most other restaurants around were closed and myself, my partner and young baby had been walking around Castletownbere for an hour trying to find somewhere for dinner. The place was half empty so no excuse to not even check with the kitchen re allergens, it also doesn’t take much to be kind, or at least to not be so rude

Diegos Wine Bar & Charcoal House
Castletownbere
26/10/2024: Se le pidió que esperara fuera en asientos abiertos son, aunque estaba cubierto.
La jefa sentó a dos nuevos clientes en dos mesas, ante mí.
No hay cura médica para la codicia de esta mujer.
Absolutamente terrible servicio al cliente.
27/09/2024: Ni siquiera entramos en la puerta, nos despidieron de inmediato con un miembro del personal que estaba tomando un pedido de un cliente con "No tengo nada" al menos dejamos que cerráramos la puerta incluso el otro cliente se sorprendió por su comentario despectivo, esta mujer necesita algunas lecciones de atención al cliente o entrenamiento, huelga decir que no volveremos y aconsejaría a la gente que se mantenga alejada con ese tipo de actitud francamente descuidada y grosera
