21/12/2025: Soup and sambos are lovely, decent pint too

27/12/2025: My daughter & I visited the Quays bar today & had food that was reasonably good. Unfortunately the place was absolutely filthy, our shoes were sticking to the floor. Toilets were disgusting & absolutely filthy with no toilet roll & when we asked we were told there was none. I dread to think what the kitchen was like.

19/07/2025: Excellent food, very tasty. Really enjoyed it 😋

20/07/2025: Lovely terraces area to look out at the coast. Lovely staff and the wine was fabulous!

04/07/2025: Truly the most considerate staff going. I’ve never seen so many waiters and waitresses (amongst others) work so perfectly. I could only dream of service this good again

16/11/2025: We were at the hotel restaurant. The coffee and desserts were delicious.

14/11/2025: Didn't stay at the hotel but honestly the best pint of Guinness I've ever had

25/08/2025: Love this place for years. Unfortunately bar staff Steve came in pints are not the same so the customers say.

22/08/2025: Was there for all ireland football final .. didn't open untill 1230 .. can't believe they don't look for exemption for the 2 finals .. people queuing outside for 2 hours to get in ..

31/12/2025: We are a small family with roots in West Clare and regardless of what stage of the year you come down to the area, the Bay View consistently offers great food, great atmosphere and attentive staff. Everything a good family run hotel should be. Long may it continue!

17/11/2025: We arrived at about 6pm on a Sunday night in November -- when most of the other restaurants in town were closed for the season -- to find a substantial crowd and several people waiting for tables. The very polite proprietor did a quick survey and suggested it might be as much as a 40 minute wait, but lacking other options, we settled at the bar. Fortunately, things moved more quickly and we were seated in about 15 minutes instead. Their menu follows the "gastro pub" model, with upscale versions of a lot of Irish standards . I had a bowl of chowder (very good), my wife had goat cheese crostini (excellent) and we shared a tiger prawn appetizer (also delicious). The service was attentive and friendly, and the atmosphere cozy on a chilly fall night. Overall, a win all around.

28/10/2025: Had fish and chips and they were tasty shop was clean service was on point

25/08/2025: Back again and last time . Its happened again. Fish overcooked, chips overcooked,

01/01/2026: The pub is nicely decorated and the atmosphere is good, floor service was excellent. Unfortunately the food was very poor. I had the chicken burger and have never had a worse one. What was passed off as "chicken" neither tasted nor looked like any chicken burger I have ever had before. The Heineken was not good from the lounge on the night and the barman was very reluctant to go to the bar to pull it where it was much better. Don't think I will be back very soon!

20/12/2025: The atmosphere itself was fine — friendly clientele, good screens for football, and the other staff were pleasant. However, my experience was significantly let down by the head barman. Our order was extremely straightforward all night: basic pints, crisps, and one Guinness 0.0, which I was drinking. No cocktails, no special requests, and we were polite throughout. Despite this, the head barman avoided eye contact, appeared short-tempered, and came across as rude. On ordering another round, I was served regular Guinness instead of the 0.0. When I calmly asked if any were alcohol-free, he loudly said “no” and walked off mid-conversation. This felt dismissive and unnecessary, especially as the pub had started to quieten down. His attitude brought the whole mood down and ultimately made me leave. A real shame, as the venue itself is great, but that interaction overshadowed the rest of the evening.

19/12/2025: Great food. Lovely Christmas decorations and very friendly staff.

03/12/2025: Had lunch here today for the first time in ages and was really impressed. Had the salmon - broccoli and root veg done perfectly and really good mash. Baked salmon was excellent. Friend had beetroot and goats cheese salad and loved it. Extremely reasonable too Will definitely be back.

03/01/2026: This was hands down the best dinner myself and herself had all year. It felt like the soup was giving our insides a hug. The vegetables were like They were cooked in the mist of a waterfall in a mythical land. They just got the simple things so damn right. Steak and the fish were clearly just from a good source and everything that was on the plate was there to compliment everything else. 11/10

31/12/2025: Best meatball pasta I've ever had on the lunch menu. Very reasonable price as well for such high quality food. I'll be seeking how to make that sauce :) Jennies butternut squash soup was also top notch !!!

13/09/2025: Lovely pub. Fantastic service and hospitality from the lovely Emma. She made my birthday celebrations so special. Definitely recommend the wings!

05/09/2025: This is the first Irish pub I’ve ever eaten at. Emma was an amazing host and the food was excellent.

11/10/2025: Best breakfast of my entire 2 weeks in Ireland, for a very fair price too

05/08/2025: The vegetable soup here has absolutely no flavor. It's just diced potatoes, chopped onion, and carrots in water. Only after adding a lot of salt and pepper was it even remotely edible. The coffee was definitely not freshly brewed and was still very strong with milk. We wouldn't recommend it. The ice cream and fries are probably better.
