The best restaurantsof irish in Youghal

23/05/2026: I went here with a friend for a takeaway coffee and I could not recommend it more! The atmosphere was cosy, the staff were friendly and the wait for our drinks was nonexistent! There are many options for people who do not drink coffee also, for example chai lattes, so there's something for everyone here.

22/05/2026: Lovely staff here! Food is grand but could do with a few more veggie options. A suggestion: some salt and pepper for the tables!

31/05/2026: Stayed in Ahernes recently for 3 nights. We couldn’t be happier with the very friendly welcome from David and the team. The food was excellent catering for a coeliac without any issues. The home made bread was ‘the best ever’….. thanks Anne!, we left with the recipe! A super location for a relaxing break.

24/05/2026: Excellent food but on the pricey side. Staff very helpful and friendly.

21/02/2026: Great meeting place! Central near BusStop, Great food and service - vibrant - many young people!

05/05/2026: A lovely experience, the room was spotless, pristine and had a gorgeous view out onto the nearby beach. The staff were wonderful, especially in the bar, serving food and always friendly, helpful and professional. Overall, a lovely welcoming break.

19/03/2026: Had my son's Confirmation meal at the hotel recently. My husband and I had visited the hotel and met with Jessica weeks prior. She showed us around the different private rooms and we picked Raleighs, a small private room at the back of the hotel. It was for a group of 10 people. We had other venues lined up and even though the Walter came in more expensive we decided to pay that bit extra for a private room and a nice atmosphere. We paid our 100 deposit that day and we were looking forward to the event. Roll on to my son's special day, we arrived at the hotel and I went to let reception know that we had arrived. We were then told that another family were in the room we booked. Then, a few excuses from other staff members were that it was because we were a smaller group. Another excuse was that construction work was going on outside the window of the room and another one was that the breakfast stuff was put in there that morning. We ended up sitting out in the lobby on a makeshift table. We felt like we were sitting in a hallway. People were passing us and children from other parties were running around our table and at one stage went in underneath our table. My husband complained to the duty manager who seemed very dismissive. Later when my husband was up at the bar he was told the round had no charge. This was for 3 alcohol beverages and 3 soft drinks. We left feeling very disappointed and embarrassed in front of our guests. My son kept asking why we were sitting in the lobby when we had booked a private room. The next day, I emailed the hotel to complain and though apologetic at first, all we got was excuses. No offer of anything else or any other goodwill gesture. If you want to have a special family occasion, look elsewhere. I would not recommend this hotel.
