The best restaurantsof irish in Carlow

24/10/2025: Got married here and everything was perfect, Becky was so helpful throughout the process of planning the big day since my husband and I both live in Scotland. I felt so relaxed and comfortable on the big day due to the professionalism of all the hotel staff and my guests have been raving about the rooms and the wedding meal. Highly recommend The Step House Hotel for all future couples that want to tie the knot at this lovely location. If I could give them 10 stars I would. Honestly best day of my life and it was made even more memorable. Will definitely be coming back to stay here as a regular guest. Well done Step House and thank you again ❤️

01/05/2025: I originally had given this restaurant a 5 star review on the back of having been there a number of times. However, having recently returned, I found that this place has dropped a lot in quality and service. I believe it has changed hands/under new management and it would appear to have gone downhill since then. Such a pity, it was a great place to eat and family friendly.

11/04/2025: Unfortunately, food was just ok and that's me being "generous". Service felt like we were back in 90s. Atmosphere was like a nearly closing down place. Huge potential in the right hands,but definitely not into whomever runs it now. I'm not the person to complain and haven't said anything while settling the bill (which was 74 euro for 2 people and not even a "thank you" received). Won't be rushing again to eat here,for sure.
