Man Friday
Kinsale
21/11/2025: Super nice waitress, who also welcomed us right away.
19/11/2025: Right, so Man Friday—absolute gem. Walked in and it felt like stepping into a cosy coastal hideaway, all soft lighting and that old-school charm. I kicked off with huge juicy oysters, followed by scampi that was golden, crisp, and downright addictive. The back sole? Melt-in-your-mouth magic. And fair play to the staff—Natalie had the whole thing running like clockwork, no fuss, just good vibes. €96 well spent, no regrets. If you’re in Kinsale and not eating here, you’re missing a trick.

13/01/2026: Great food. Great vibe. Recommended by all the locals.
05/01/2026: Visiting from SE Asia, by far the best fish and chips in Kinsale. Huge pieces of crispy perfectly cooked fish, delicious chips and great service. We also tried the mussels which were right up there with the best I've had, super fresh and tasty. Definitely recommend over other similar places in town.

Trident Hotel Kinsale
Kinsale
17/01/2026: Food was good.
The service was very slow and disjointed.
We would come again.
09/01/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5-Star Review – Trident Hotel
This was my second stay at Trident Hotel, and once again I spent 8 wonderful nights here. Everything about this hotel is absolutely amazing. From the moment you arrive, you are made to feel genuinely welcome.
The hotel staff are exceptional—whether at the reception, in the kitchen, or throughout the property, everyone is warm, professional, and incredibly kind. Their attention to detail and willingness to help truly stand out.
I would especially like to appreciate Kundan for his outstanding hospitality and helpful nature. He goes above and beyond to make sure guests are comfortable, and his kindness really made my stay memorable.
Even the drivers are fantastic. A special mention to Umakanth, who is an awesome driver—very professional, speaks excellent English, and is super helpful and friendly. Traveling with him was always smooth and pleasant.
Overall, Trident Hotel continues to exceed my expectations, which is why I happily returned for a second stay. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, great service, and truly caring staff. I look forward to coming back again!

The Old Bank House
Kinsale
04/01/2026: Good location...but be prepared to wait ...a cafe where you are not provided with menus, but expected to wait at random for wait staff to make eye contact. Happens too often. Staff training needed badly
30/12/2025: The location is perfect
I met a very nice lady today working in the cafeteria downstairs, she was so sweet, im the man on crutches, if you see my comment i will comeback to see you.

Dinos
Kinsale
10/01/2026: Lovely food, but despite the restaurant be empty they didn't want to split the bill for a table of 9.
08/01/2026: Came here for the Fish & Chips we enjoyed a year ago. Unfortunately, the waiting staff was extremely unmotivated. (Gave us a drinking cup: "what is that?" "I don't know, I don't pour the drinks")
Really takes some of the fun out of going out to eat.
Chips were a bit overfried, mushy peas bland. I liked the fish, even though it was not exactly obvious to me whether I actually got the "larger" fillet as described for "Dino's Special".
