04/05/2026: Very tasty food, good size portions in reasonable price. Nice selection of menu and specials of the day. Helpful and friendly staff. We've been here couple times. Over the weekend is busy, so recommend reservation (but it's not necessary). Possible to park on the street parking.

07/05/2026: One of the most unique and gorgeous places we've ever stayed. Highly recommend!

02/05/2026: Very luxury and relaxing destination Food was delicious Hotel staff were all well trained and in good manners

13/05/2026: This was such a nice pub! I absolutely loved the cottage pie I got for my meal, and my husband was very impressed with his fish & chips. We enjoyed listening to the live traditional Irish music!

12/05/2026: Great bar food. I had the burger and it was delicious. My wife was happy with her fish and chips.

20/04/2026: Had a lovely lunch with my family last Sunday at The Ivy Cottage. Food was amazing, fish and chips with a light batter and so tasty! Chowder and Crab Claw were also so special. We bought a loaf of the bread they serve with the Chowder, a soda bread with different spices, so tasty! Staff was beyond friendly, so kind and efficient! We felt very welcomed specially because they were so kind to our little doggy.

06/04/2026: Very good restaurant and Pub! One server on duty ( SMH) Would recommended more lol

30/03/2026: Delicious food, fantastic customer service and the atmosphere was very welcoming.

15/05/2026: Mushroom puff pastry tart was A M A Z I N G . Service was good as well and cute little PUB atmosphere! Would recommend 100%

10/05/2026: Fantastic food, I had the seafood chowder and my wife had the wagyu beef burger. Both of us agreed it was the best we have had. Service was friendly but slow - I got the feeling they needed one or two more people. They seemed pretty stressed and it took a long time to get the bill after our table was cleared (30ish minutes). Love the old bar feel - you can tell this place has been open and well-loved a long time. Live music was great.

06/05/2026: We only had dinner there it was sensational, the food and service was excellent. Can highly recommend

04/05/2026: We stopped for lunch and coffee. Great place with beautiful views, great service, delicious food with gluten free and lactose free options.

04/05/2026: A nice restaurant, the wine list was a little underwhelming.

01/05/2026: We visited Henry's Bistro the first night of our arrival in Ennis. We listened to some early hours trad music then decided to have dinner. Henry's is highly rated, so we decided to see if we could get in without a reservation on this rainy Thursday. Fortunately, we did. Now, I could carry on about the excellent seafood chowder, wonderful bread or scrumptious apple tart, but my husband and I both delighted in the feather blade beef braised in red wine. This isn't a cut we see in California, and although Google will tell you it is flank steak--it is not. This lovely piece of grass-fed and finished local Hereford is from the upper shoulder and it was amazing. The portions were really generous. We had the fixed price menu with a bottle of wine from a curated wine list. If you're in Ennis and looking for something that's maybe not traditional Irish food but truly exceptional locally raised food, this is the place you want to go.

06/05/2026: Had a wonderful dinner with family, the food was absolutely amazing. Perfectly cooked halibut, scallops and fish. Service was excellent, and we underestimated the restaurant!

30/04/2026: We went to the restaurant. The food and prices were average, but the service was unfortunately rude. Maybe we just had a bad experience.

26/02/2026: The best place I've ever been lucky enough to eat at in Ireland. Good food, excellent service, and a lovely atmosphere, plus it's very convenient to get to. Recommended.

27/01/2026: Lovely spot! Clean and welcoming from the moment you walk in, with gorgeous flowers out front. Great atmosphere, delicious food, a lovely menu with tasty daily specials. Can’t wait to return!

17/05/2026: Great atmosphere. Hearty traditional pub food. Very welcoming service and amazing decor! 👍👍

17/05/2026: Our tour bus stopped here for lunch, food was very good and came quickly as we only had 40 mins for lunch, they had a good system down and we had plenty of time to enjoy the food and a pint. Food was very affordable compared to similar pubs

03/04/2026: This was actually our best meal in Ireland. The food were all excellent and the view was fantastic. Really love the mussels.

02/04/2026: A lovely place with a great wine list and views of the waterfall, wonderful!

17/04/2026: Excellent food! We had roast beef and fish (cod) and chips. All done amazingly well. Warm friendly service. Will be back when we are over that way in Clare next time. Highly recommended.

06/04/2026: Very friendly local pub with delicious food and very friendly and helpful staff.

11/05/2026: The two of us, along with our toddler, had a wonderful evening here. The atmosphere is exactly what you'd expect from a typical Irish pub – cozy, welcoming, and totally relaxed. You immediately feel at home. The food was delicious: the fish and chips were perfectly crispy and fresh, the mussels were cooked to perfection and very flavorful. Our little one had nuggets with chips, which were also a big hit. Add to that a few beers – simply a perfect evening all around. We especially appreciated that ketchup and mayo were offered free of charge, which isn't always the case these days. The total cost came to around €60, which is absolutely fair considering the quality, the portion sizes, and the ambiance. A definite 5 stars – we'll definitely be back!

11/05/2026: This place was great. By far the best Pub in town. My friends and I were traveling in for a couple days and didn’t end up getting in until later than anticipated. Although we came in close to close the employees were very welcoming and took great care of us! I will definitely be back.

26/04/2026: Very kind of them to make the children hot cocoa and a pot of tea, even though the kitchen was already closed. Including warming up by the fireplace.

26/04/2026: Great people and a lovely B&B upstairs!
