The best restaurantsof irish

05/09/2025: 5 minutes from golf course, breakfast was fantastic and the staff was like family!

20/08/2025: Old country house but excellent service and atmosphere.

08/03/2026: Great craic and food with staff who do their jobs really well

02/02/2026: Excellent music food and great place to stay when in killarney

28/03/2026: For years it was best fish and chips. I always think about this as reward after trip. Today it was so under average… fish was super greasy and burger was one of the worst I ever eaten… would prefer McDonald cheese burger… Not sure if staff changed, bad day or some cost cutting but definitely not worth visit. Will give it one more try in few months to check if it’s back to glory but doubt it…

01/02/2026: Fantastic experience. Lovely staff and fresh tasty food. I would highly recommend it to anyone

17/04/2026: Really nicely located by the river. But unfortunately had a bad experience. It was not very busy, and my coffee took nearly 20 minutes to arrive. The hot chocolate came completely cold, and the cream on top was sour and gone off. I would be hesitant to come back sadly.

07/04/2026: Fabulous river side location to watch the world go by. Plus the food & staff are you class.

25/01/2026: Dear Management, I am writing to formally complain about the treatment my wife, myself, and our friends received at Lawlers of Naas on Saturday evening. We have visited your premises on many occasions, particularly on Sundays, without ever experiencing an issue. Yesterday, following a low-key family christening, a group of seven friends joined us for drinks. Three members of our group arrived earlier, including one couple where the woman was heavily pregnant. After we had sat down and were having a drink, we were approached by Bar Manager Adam and told that we would have to leave at 9:30pm. No explanation was given, and there had been no disorderly behaviour, raised voices, or breach of house rules. Two members of our group privately spoke with the manager to ask what we had done wrong. They were told, “No guys, what did we do? You did nothing wrong.” Despite this, during this conversation, bar staff removed drinks from our table without consent. When our friends queried where their drinks had gone, they were told they had not purchased any drinks. This was incorrect. Both friends had paid by card and were able to immediately show proof of payment on their banking app. It is also important to note that two of our friends, who do not appear to be members of the Traveller community, were served food and drinks without issue throughout the evening. However, once staff became aware that other members of our group were from the Traveller community, service was refused and we were effectively forced to leave. The only difference between those who were served and those who were not was their membership of the Traveller community. That is discrimination, plain and simple. I find it deeply upsetting that in 2026 this kind of treatment is still occurring. We are local people and local business owners. I personally have coached children in Newbridge for over 30 years and have contributed positively to the local community my entire adult life. None of that mattered on Sunday night. We were humiliated in front of friends, one of whom was heavily pregnant, and made to feel unwelcome solely because of who we are. I am requesting: • A written explanation for the actions of management and staff • Confirmation of your policies regarding equality and non-discrimination • An assurance that members of the Traveller community will not be treated this way again This complaint is being documented formally. I hope it can be resolved appropriately, but I will consider further action if necessary. I look forward to your response. Yours sincerely, Edward Stokes

11/12/2025: We booked for 7 pm for our family and was totally let down by the long wait and awful service. I do not blame the floor staff or the kitchen staff but the owners who are allowing walk-ins putting pressure on staff and in turn giving bad service to the customers who have booked and paid good money to eat at this establishment! I hope the owners review their policy and put quality over quantity!

03/03/2026: (Traducido por Google) Siempre un gran lugar para los amantes de la música. Hay muchas oportunidades para socializar en un entorno bullicioso pero cómodo y para aquellos que buscan esconderse de los encuentros casuales, hay muchos rincones y grietas para desaparecer por la noche. También existe la ventaja adicional de poder separarse por completo y aventurarse arriba a la sección de descanso con asientos de cine para una experiencia única. Bebe y disfruta. (Original) Always a great spot for you music lovers. There's ample opportunity to socialise in a bustling yet comfortable setting and for those looking to hide away from chance encounters there's plenty of nooks and crannies to disappear into for the night. There's also the added bonus of being able to break away completely and venture upstairs to the chill out section clad with cinema seats for a unique experience. Drink up and enjoy.

19/01/2026: Great Wee funky quirky bar ++++++

11/05/2026: Wood-fired pizza scrumptious, salad lovely and fresh, staff were superb - welcoming, attentive and super helpful, definitely going back for more.

09/05/2026: A fantastic pub/restaurant i have used for formal occassions or a social drink.Horans have consistently produced top quality food and drink, be it for hiring the venue for a Baptism Party, a family meal or social drinks of a weekend.Horans provides you with the option of great pub grub, with a wide range of food, or the option of The Base restaurant. With a Stone Pizza Oven, there is a seperate Pizza menu or a wide selection of mains from steak, fish, chicken and day specials. A Popular side bar for just a drink, you can catch all the sport throughout Horans, with your choice of surrounding. The staff are always accommodating and do their best to meet your needs, with Premier League, Rugby, GAA, Horse Racing, and fantastic food to enjoy during the match od with friends. As for entertainment, there is live music every Saturday night and often other events during the week. I Have never used the accommodation but i often see people arriving for rooms they have booked, as they sightsee around Wicklow or for local weddings etc. A great local pub, which does its best to meet your every need!

18/04/2026: We went for breakfast, a couple of coffees and a couple of toasts with avocado and eggs. We had to reorder one of the coffees as it didn't arrive, even though there weren't many people there at the time. Then the toasts, at €15 each, were quite mediocre, with a lot of arugula and hardly any avocado. At least the eggs were cooked properly. The service was slow, inefficient, and they didn't seem to remember our orders. An exorbitant price for what we got, especially considering how expensive Ireland is.

06/04/2026: Food is great. The waitress when we walked in wasn't friendly. She didnt even really speak at all just pointed at a table. The next waiter and waitress we had though were really friendly so it was a mixed bag. They are also very very strict on the menu it wasn't an issue for me but if you want to change in or out an item that is a full no no.

28/04/2026: The food was okay overall, but I’d say it’s quite expensive for what you get. I had to remove two items as I can’t eat them, and they replaced them with extra roast potatoes and a hash brown, which I appreciated. That said, I initially only got four small pieces of potato, but when I asked for more, they added extra, which was good. The server was friendly and took our order well. The coffee was really good nice and hot. There’s also good parking available, and it’s easy to turn in and access the place.

26/04/2026: Editing an old review from 5 stars as I used to absolutely love this place. Have been coming in for breakfasts/brunches here for years now. Used to love the Full Irish ('Farmer's Fair') but they've changed a lot from what they used to be. It's hit & miss on the food a lot of the time, as they regularly change things around regarding what arrives on the plate so it's like a lottery. Food has become very disappointing over the last year or more and do not justify the prices anymore.

15/03/2026: Horrible service bang average food bang average drink. If your in the area your way better off going to whytes not too far from here it is far far superior.

15/02/2026: What a wonderful place! It's very atmospheric. A wonderful display of antiques. The room is decorated in a vintage style: no plastic, just metal and wood! The food prices are more than reasonable. The meat dishes were excellent! The only issue was the fish was a little watery, but that's a minor detail. Five stars, definitely!

15/05/2026: We found this place by chance when looking for somewhere to have lunch. It was excellent. We had the daily special which was Hake with brown rice, which was great for me as I have diabetes. We also had two glasses of excellent wine and desserts. Coffee was good, as was the service. Worth a visit if you’re in Skibbereen.

03/03/2026: Great cafe Excellent food and coffee

12/03/2026: Food for 3. Prawn pasta was bland and overpriced. The chicken curry has minimal chicken. The beef and Guinness pie was good. Way overpriced. Wouldn't return.

06/02/2026: Very hospitable lovely atmosphere friendly. Customer service excellent xxx

11/05/2026: Will remember Cashel because of this space and Joel and Marijke ..who welcomed us and made us feel at home.

02/05/2026: We walked in to an empty restaurant at 6:30 pm on a Friday (every other place in town was full), so we weren’t expecting much. The food was delivered in takeout containers. We were surprised to find out it was from a trailer out back. The food was excellent! The Rustic Food Trailer has been doing this for about 6 months. The trailer is run by a young couple, he’s from Lithuania and she is from the Ukraine.

25/10/2025: Staff and proprietor courtious and friendly

05/04/2026: Changing my previous 5 star review. Very overpriced here, and today I had missing items from my takeaway order. I haven’t been here with a while due to the high prices, and used to come regularly enough. However, I thought I’d have a treat with today being Easter. After today, I certainly won’t be coming back again in a hurry.

26/03/2026: Absolutely spot on inside there, couldn’t fault the place one bit, will always come back 😊
