Ivy Cottage
29/10/2025: Charming restaurant with delicious food. I was there at the end of July with my mother staying within walking distance of the restaurant, and it was one of the best meals we had during our 5 day trip in Ireland.
27/10/2025: Service was great . Fish (was light like a cotton) & chips was very tasty. Soup of the day super. Atmosphere was very cosy

Dromoland Castle
29/11/2025: This is an incredible spot. Exactly what it should be. Our family’s favorite hotel of the trip. It starts with the friendly people who greet your car and never stops. Falconry and skeet shooting were great.
25/11/2025: We were walking around the castle enjoying the beautiful decorations, but the moment we entered the restaurant the whole experience became even better. From the very first second everything felt special, thanks to the warm, human and highly professional service. Denis, Eric, Lucy, Timy… I could name many more.
The cocktail “The Emperor” was exactly the kind of ending you’d wish for on a perfect night. ✨

24/10/2025: The store owner is very friendly. He cooked the chicken I bought from the supermarket in the oven for me. You can come and eat if you pass by here.

McDermott's Pub
12/12/2025: We had our lunch at McDermott Pub, and everything was fantastic. The food was fresh and delicious, and a big compliment goes to the fish soup — it was especially outstanding. A great spot to enjoy a hearty meal with a welcoming atmosphere.
06/12/2025: Hello
We were there yesterday at 4:00 PM and it was closed. You need to update your opening hours on Google so we don't go there for nothing. We had to drive quite a few kilometers and it was useless. Thanks. Regards

The Riverside Bistro
21/09/2025: Very nice and cosy place. I ordered BBQ ribs and chips with glass of Merlot wine. Ribs were amazing: well marinated, soft and sweet.
Banoffi desert was not too sweet and good. It was very delicious.
14/09/2025: This was the best food I’ve had in Ireland in many years.The owners were delightful, the atmosphere was relaxed and the menu was creative.

Byrnes Restaurant
Ennistymon
04/12/2025: Went here for food and drinks on a trip shortly after getting married this summer. The food and service were incredible. We loved every moment of it. When we told them we'd just gotten married, they gave us a free drink. So generous. Will be back every time in the area.
30/11/2025: Great experience, we were 3 people and all tried Irish Stew and it was really delicious and big portions. Everything was great, including the staff.

Bunratty
11/12/2025: Noel and his team are amazing. One night stay on business with accomodation and evening meal.
Room really nice and very clean.
Great Guinness before we ate. Then the food, simply stunning. Pork Belly with black pudding for starter, then beef cheek for main, souffle to finish. All to a very high standard with exceptional service. My second stay here when in Shannon, loved it.
11/11/2025: Absolutely fabulous experience, from check-in to check-out.kind, helpful, clean, comfortable.
Excellent breakfast.
Great local sites.

Roadside Tavern
Lisdoonvarna
30/11/2025: I was so lucky to have the Roadside as my local pub for over three months: the staff is extraordinary and the place itself was my safe space after work! (The coziest Bar with the best and cutest Barman around: thank you Andrew for always having a pint and a good story ready for me)
When I spoiled myself with one of Peters lovely meals, Bridie, Mayuko and Paola always made sure I had the best experience: they are kind and wonderful people and the service is fantastic!
So if you have the chance to wine and dine in the roadside or to listen to a few tunes of a trad session with a good pint: do not hesitate! :)
23/11/2025: The food here was great. The portions were very good also. It was my first time eating oysters and they were very nice. I would definitely recommend this place.

Vaughan's Anchor Inn
Liscannor
05/12/2025: We stopped in for a bite to eat and were very pleased. The restaurant has several cozy dining rooms, a bar, excellent service, and a high standard of food preparation and presentation.
The back room has a unique interior with huge aquariums and live fish.
27/11/2025: We recently had dinner here and well it was very enjoyable, it was a little expensive and I thought the food had a few areas it could improve on. The fish and chips was very nice with a great crisp batter, but the fish itself I thought was just okay. The oysters were drowned in a Vietnamese dressing which was nice, but I couldn’t taste the oysters. My wife had the monkfish which she said was ok but the curry dashi did not work that well. Great service and nice atmosphere. I would try again.

Danny Mac's
Lahinch
03/11/2025: We visited as a group of 7 whilst visiting Co Clare on a short break.
Our experience was mostly very good, the chowder was excellent, the vol-au-vents, pasta dish and fish were very good, however the burgers were dry and chewy, edible non the less but the only downside.
28/10/2025: amazing food and atmosphere! big recommendation😍

The Good House
Inagh
15/12/2025: Stopped off for lunch. Fresh food, excellent service. Very reasonable price.
23/11/2025: Service was really disappointing. Emily (in a tight blue blouse and blonde hair) rushed us, spoke sharply, and then handed me a container to pack my own main, when I asked can I take it home. which felt downright rude and unprofessional. Definitely not the level of service I expected.
Do better.
