The best restaurantsof irish

13/09/2024: Really surprised by previous reviews. Seems like they are describing a different restaurant. Really want to be supportive of Irish restaurants but the food was very poor. Service was great and friendly but ultimately you go to a restaurant for the food and if that is bad, it’s hard to recover from that.

25/08/2024: Nice spot to catch up and chat. Food was excellent, staff were very attentive and efficient, price was fair. Overall a nice experience and we would visit again

19/08/2024: We called here to get a quiet table away from the food court. We got an eerily quiet table as there nobody else there. I soon found out why! I had a toasted ham and cheese. It was so greasy.

27/04/2024: This restaurant was spotless and staff are very well trained. Food was served warm and well presented. Dessert menu is fantastic. The only drawback was two small lunch plates, 2 coffees plus one dessert cost just over 50 euros

24/10/2024: always been an amazing spot, had a really rich chocolate cake w my mom and we absolutely loved it( my vanilla chai was also amazing) ! i’m specifically writing this review to compliment the worker who accomodated us!! Her name’s Zofia and she had the most pleasant attitude, so incredibly attentive and helpful. She runs around the place helping everyone with a smile on her face with the fastest service! Just felt like her efforts should be commended as she really puts in effort and does it with a smile 💓💓 Top class work!!

06/10/2024: Good assortment of well-prepared and tasty takeaway dishes at reasonable prices. We bought the shepherd's pie, tomato basil soup, and a loaf of fresh-made white bread. We had two full diners for four people out of what we ordered.

23/06/2024: So disappointed in the carrickdale secret garden food these days, it has no taste and is reheated. Myself and my partner ordered sandwiches (wraps) and they came out in a few minutes, you could tell the wedges were sitting there all day. It costed us 40 euro and we would have been safer eating a McDonald’s. Wish carrickdale secret garden, bar and carvey would be given the attention it deserves as it used to be given years ago the food was gorgeous.

31/03/2024: Went with my other half and mum for my birthday and it was fantastic and the staff couldn't have been lovelier. Always a treat to come for the carvery and it was terrific as usual. Mum needed a wee bit of assistance and the staff couldn't have done more for us. The food BTW was excellent. The roasts were very tender and tasty. The portion sizes are huge and one meal would easily feed two. Really lovely place and the staff are just terrific and incredibly friendly - love it!

13/09/2024: Besökte stället för brunch. Väldigt mysig lokal i en mysig del av Galway med fin utsikt över vattnet. Valde några rätter från menyn o det var verkligen rejäla portioner, o nylagat. Fantastiskt gott. Service snabb o effektiv o trevlig.

07/07/2024: Popped in here for a quick bite to eat one morning. Beautiful setting with beautiful food. Well worth a visit if in the area.

16/07/2024: When we arrived at 11.35 we were told that the breakfast menu was finished, but if we wanted to take a seat they would get us the lunch menus. We waited half an hour before the menus were printed and bright over. There was black dots floating in the drinking water so I had to order different water. Finally, when we did order from the freshly printed menu not all choices were available.

14/07/2024: Thatch and thyme can be great for a catchup coffee with friends or to break up a long journey. Unfortunately it's not consistent. Negatives first which hopefully can be reviewed and improved. Eggs Benedict, royal and similar are always tasty but the baps are always soggy, not sure is this from water off the egg or the sauce. Got the porridge recently and was expecting fruit compote, honey and muesli, received slightly undercooked porridge, tiny bowl of 1-2 cut strawberries, few seeds in another bowl. No honey. No cutlery. A friend got the açaí smoothie bowl, with fruit, coconut and muesli. Muesli was missing, didn't taste like açaí and was super runny. It did taste nice, presentation was lacking,the fruit had sunk to the bottom. The salmon and chicken salad plates can often be a bit dry around the edges. There is no baby changing table in the bathroom? The baby chairs do not seem like restaurant quality and are very unsteady on the natural floor. They are also filthy. I don't think the straps have ever been washed. Some of the clips to hold the tray were broken. Positives: On a good day the fish is cooked perfectly, the menu has great options, lovely salads. Coffee is really good. Hake when it's on is to die for, flavors all compliment each other. Open sandwich on their brown bread is so filling. Goats cheese tart and beetroot is really tasty. Has real depth to the taste. The flagstone floor adds character and is probably a nightmare to clean but it is kept tidy considering. The outside area is lovely with fresh herbs growing and for a small area they have done a fantastic job.
