The best restaurantsof irish

23/05/2026: Wonderful experience, lovely ambience and the shank was superb!!!

15/04/2026: While on holiday in Killarney, we had lunch there as a family before catching our train (it's located very close to the station). An affordable restaurant, delicious fish and chips, quick service, and a great playlist. We highly recommend it!

09/05/2026: I was in there for dinner and it was really disappointing. Chips were raw. Dishes weren't described as they came. There was a bone in the chicken dish and everything had no flavour and lacked salt. Very disappointing wont be coming again

03/05/2026: Very friendly service. You can eat in peace and quiet at an affordable price.

28/05/2026: Popped in for some weekday lunch. My son really enjoyed his sausages and chips and I had seafood chowder It was the best tasting chowder I've had in years. We definitely will be back next time we're in the area.

03/05/2026: A very nice place for enjoying time for dinner with you family. Very friendly to kids

13/08/2025: Love getting my lunch here, The new smokey hot sauce is unreal,

04/08/2025: Food was great and the service by Kate was excellent.

06/01/2026: Unfortunately, Nanny Quinns has closed down now. We didn't book ahead of time but we will in future. That said they were very accommodating and took the pressure in their stride.Lovely old style pub serving great food and a great pint. The atmosphere was lovely and the service was second to none. Beside the canal so perfect for a drink on warmer days. I have passed it by for years but now that we are actually living nearby, we will definitely be frequent visitors.

24/10/2025: I was only in the restaurant for a coffee. The atmosphere is very pleasant, beautifully decorated, and cozy. Good service.

07/10/2025: A lovely cafe on the banks of the Barrow. We sat out and had coffee and scones, watching the world go by on the river. Nicest scones we’ve had for a long time. Friendly staff too.

24/02/2026: Great little place excellent quality homemade food Great staff landlord very friendly

18/12/2025: Came in late after a long day of travelling and arrived in near closing time. They were very accommodating to me and my partner, we had accommodation already sorted elsewhere but we had some food here and it was deadly. Owners very friendly and recommend us sights to see. Will be back when we visit skibbereen again.

05/05/2026: Great place but cake shop and restaurant are all closed

03/05/2026: Servers are nice and very polite, food on the other hand since they changed hands is honestly the worst I’ve had. Gave it a second chance recently as it’s our local and it was even worse. Chefs don’t care, wouldn’t give it to my dog. Every special stir fry dish they put on the menu seems to taste the same no matter what it’s called. Pure filth.

25/04/2026: Chicken tough curry not what excepted for a buttery curry all spice and no flavour

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.

12/10/2025: Went for family meal at Phil’s. Staff super friendly warm and very accommodating! Portions were massive and very tasty! Kitchen had closed but they brought out a little token to celebrate a family members birthday!! Lovely atmosphere and chilled vibes. Would recommend to all!

02/08/2025: Superb quality of food and excellent service by Heather and Christina Definitely worth a visit for the stew or seafood chowder

30/05/2026: Excellent pub with plenty of space, even for real data. The food isn't very varied, but it's very good. I recommend the shepherd's pie and soup.

26/05/2026: Nice pub,we went during the day when it was really quite,roaring fire-lovely staff

29/10/2025: Family-run, medium-sized hotel with a very relaxed atmosphere. The location is perfect if you're traveling by car and want to explore the Irish west coast south of Galway. There's a restaurant, a bar with a limited menu, and a gym with a pool. Highly recommended!

26/10/2025: Had a very pleasant late cheese toastie and beer here after walk on the beach. Very smart inside. Ideal for family lunches.

06/06/2026: Great carvery. Roast Beef very good. Generous portions.

23/05/2026: Lovely food and loads on the menu. Good parking.

02/10/2025: Myself and my two friends came for the weekend from Dublin and all three of us would highly recommend this hotel. Call greeted us on arrival and was so helpful and friendly. The rooms were clean, had fresh towels and nice and warm room. The breakfast and food was outstanding. The service we received in the restaurant was excellent. The girls were so friendly and i would highly recommend this hotel. Beautiful little town with the nicest people in it. The cleaners also refilled the little kitkats every morning in our coffee station which was such a lovely touch. We will defiantly be back. Thank you for a lovely stay.
