Man Friday
Kinsale
21/11/2025: Super nice waitress, who also welcomed us right away.
19/11/2025: Right, so Man Friday—absolute gem. Walked in and it felt like stepping into a cosy coastal hideaway, all soft lighting and that old-school charm. I kicked off with huge juicy oysters, followed by scampi that was golden, crisp, and downright addictive. The back sole? Melt-in-your-mouth magic. And fair play to the staff—Natalie had the whole thing running like clockwork, no fuss, just good vibes. €96 well spent, no regrets. If you’re in Kinsale and not eating here, you’re missing a trick.

Catch of the day
Kinsale
23/11/2025: Fish and chips is excellent from here really enjoyed them. We were watching dolphins playing in the estuary while we ate.
20/11/2025: Great fish, but chips could be better (too thick and thus not crispy enough to me)

Kitty O Se's
Kinsale
01/12/2025: What a delightful pub. Can't believe i waited so long to go in. I'm not one much for sports, which was on the big screen. But once the music started, count me in! Had a cheeky shandy, chatted with a lovely couple at a table, and had such a tasty bowl of beef and Guiness stew. Guitarist playing some Irish tunes rounded off the evening. Couldn't have passed a nice evening.
12/11/2025: We wandered out from our hotel room on a rainy evening in mid-November, knowing that many of Kinsale's restaurants were likely to be closed. I'd scoped Kitty's on Google and knew they had food (and a good pint), and it didn't disappoint. We were seated immediately in the comfortable dining area and made to feel welcome by the friendly young staff. My wife enjoyed her Irish Stew very much, and my seafood chowder was excellent, with just a touch of sherry that brightened the flavor subtly. The local Kinvara Pale Ale was delicious as well.

Max's
Kinsale
27/10/2025: Absolutely lovely evening spent here. Food was excellent and a very high quality with loads of lovely flavours. The atmosphere was cosy and kind. It was not pretentious at all. The staff went above and beyond to make sure you had everything and enjoyed your evening.
23/10/2025: This is a gem of a restaurant in Kinsale. I visited with colleagues on a weekday evening and had a wonderful time.
Everything was excellent, especially the fish steak, which was the best I've had in Europe. The staff were friendly, and the wine they recommended paired well with it.
I'd love to visit again.

Jim Edwards
Kinsale
07/10/2025: I recently took my Wife to Jim Edwards for lunch on 20th September 2025. From start to finish the experience was fantastic and the quality of both food and service was simply superb. We were staying locally and our hostess informed me that this establishment has been in business for a considerable period, that it is Jim's son who is now in charge and that this pub/restaurant has been operating at a very high level as long as she could remember. Very grateful for a lovely experience and incredible food. Looking forward to visiting again.
02/10/2025: Dropped in for a meal 3 people right from the start it took an age for a waiter to come with the menu order taken twice we had to check where the order was when it eventually arrived it was cold that was the end of the meal we got a small amount of the meal we left disappointed we loved Kinsale
