The best restaurantsof irish

19/05/2025: Super good, one of the best places to eat on our trip. The service was incredible, attentive, fast, friendly, and correct. I also want to highlight the prices, better than in Dublin, with typical Irish food, both in quantity and quality. The downstairs is a small supermarket with takeout, and upstairs is the restaurant, a cozy and charming place.

20/04/2025: Grocery store with caterer/sandwich and pastries upstairs, very welcoming and cozy atmosphere

18/05/2026: John is the best bouncer ever!!!

30/04/2026: The food and service was excellent! It was not over-crowded which was a plus. Super friendly staff.

14/06/2026: Most of the staff was nice. One lady, I assume a manager was extremely dismissive of us. I guess because we weren’t tourists. The chowder is absolutely disgusting, not even bits of seafood in it, which shouldn’t at all be the case considering it’s Dingle. The Caesar salad was nice though. Wouldn’t recommend at all unless you’re an American willing to leave a big tip. Just a tourist trap with mediocre overpriced food.

12/06/2026: Fantastic food & service. Great people running this place! Gavin and co were extremely welcoming!!!

18/05/2026: Visited the Camden over the weekend with a group of friends and was very impressed. Very smart looking venue with an absolute monster of a screen showing sport. We found all the staff to be very friendly and helpful and the food on offer was of a good quality too. A few of us ordered the "Big Platter" and its exactly that. We all really enjoyed it (although the mac n cheese was a bit stodgy). Would 100% return next time im back over the water..

11/05/2026: Booked for their advertised Formula 1 screening. No commentary was played over the sound system. At a few points it was removed completely from the screens. I feel they shouldn’t advertise an event if they do not want to show it properly. Drinks and food were good.

04/05/2026: The nicest food from a chipper in a long long time

07/03/2026: Best takeaway food in county Meath. The tower grill burger with bacon and cheese is a must. Chips portions are big and taste fantastic❤️❤️ Burger sauce dip is lovely also

06/06/2026: First time at Conor's Bar & Lounge & had a lovely meal served by very welcoming & friendly staff, set in beautiful surroundings with an exquisite & homely interior. 10 out of 10

01/05/2026: Simply perfect. Food, atmosphere and service 10/10. Chicken is worth getting!

08/04/2026: Soup of the day was fabulous-best soup I have had in a restaurant, veggie burger was also very delicious. Great atmosphere too.

12/01/2026: thank you to the tall blonde-ish woman who was working there saturday lunchtime for helping us get home via the concierge! you are an angel! also the warm breads and salads were delicious, and the other staff working that day were super kind and attentive 💛

02/03/2026: I can't recommend this cafe/diner enough .Food is great and value for money , service and staff excellent

28/02/2026: Generous portion of eggs Benedict - perfectly cooked, great price and service

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!

13/05/2026: Very good cafeteria. A great place to take a break during your visit. Very friendly staff.

31/03/2026: Delicious food made with fresh ingredients. The service was very friendly, and despite the large number of guests, the food arrived quickly. The coffee was outstanding.

10/06/2026: Typical Irish pub atmosphere, very welcoming service, good traditional and homemade food. We recommend it!!

08/06/2026: Have been here many times, but not since the new people took it over. Decided to call in. On entering nothing has changed. So got the same, usual welcoming feeling. A great atmosphere. In the past have seen people watching sports on TV, didn't notice this time, which in one way was a bit easier to talk. Big premises. Very deceiving from the road, much bigger inside. Anyway the food is beautiful still the same great choices. Staff very efficient. Parking on the road. We still haven't managed to stay here yet so will have to sometime in the future, so look forward to that. Good value. Call in you won't be disappointed.

26/05/2026: I can’t believe the waiter thought he could ‘sneak’ a service charge on the bill for a table of 2?! When we asked what it was for he just walked off?! So I went to the front to ask for a copy of the bill as the waiter didn’t return, sure the change was only .40 euros….. still?! AND the bill was missing, no where to be seen, had to re-print a new one. I just can’t!! 3.60 euros, in Canadian is almost $6?! Dirty!! I wish I could give this review a zero!!

26/05/2026: Great fish and chips, great view of the water and ha'penny bridge

20/05/2026: We visited yesterday and were left genuinely disappointed by our experience. We ordered 2 pints, chicken wings, and garlic cheese chips, coming to €40, which already felt steep. When the chips arrived, we were surprised to find the “garlic” element was simply 3 to 4 raw, roughly chopped garlic cloves dumped on top, completely overpowering and inedible. We politely asked if we could swap to the bacon cheese chips instead, but what came back appeared to be the exact same dish, simply reheated. We know this for certain because we had put a small amount of ketchup on the chips before requesting the change, and the replacement plate came back with the same ketchup stains still visible. Nothing had changed. When we raised our concern, we were told “it is what it is”, which we found dismissive and frankly unprofessional. Even your own waitress visibly reacted to the amount of garlic on the plate. We are not ones to complain, but €40 for this experience, the food quality, the refusal to properly address our request, and the indifferent attitude, was not acceptable. We would welcome a response and hope this is taken as constructive feedback.

07/05/2026: A lovely layout with a well equipped beer garden, which included tv. This was very welcome for the large groups of Man Utd & some Liverpool fans. The food was delicious and the Guinness was 👍 Staff were efficient & friendly.

16/05/2026: Lucy and kitty made the first experience amazing experts in whiskey would highly Recommend here without a doubt

07/05/2026: We popped in for dinner and a pint. The decor, vibe, ambiance, and feel do not match the food or service. I ordered the "pie of the day" (chicken and bacon with a side of mashed potatoes and roasted veg) and my husband the burger. At €20 a plate I was expecting something other than what appeared to be boiled and thickly cut chicken breast with a few bit of bacon in an overly salted cream sauce along with run of the mill mashed potatoes with small chunks of veg that were pan fried. It almost smacked of what you could get as a pre-made meal at Tesco. The burger was equally disappointing. Dry, overcooked (was never asked how it should be prepared), and the toppings were underwhelming. The chips that came with the burger were OK, but unremarkable and should have been cooked for at least another minute or two to crisp up the outside. When I say the vibe didn't match the service, it boils down, quite a bit, to the service. The bartender would frequently mess with his hair showing his midriff. If you're going to present your establishment as a "cut above", I would expect a bit of decorum with proper attire. Our server (I didn't catch her name) had the personality of a rock and was cold (never mean, but definitely has the feeling she didn't really want to be there). Maybe it's because it's the "low season" being early May, but come on! For €52 for 2 meals and 2 pints, surely you can do better. Also, what is up with the weird thumping noise that was vibrating the ceiling lights? Super annoying.

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
