Powers Thatch Bar & Restaurant


Oughterard
20/05/2026: This place has the best seafood chowder I've ever eaten (and I've eaten tons of chowder in my life). Mussels were fantastic, the service was amazing, and the price was very reasonable. The Google reviews have it right with this spot!
16/05/2026: A pub that's also a great restaurant! I started with a chowder, a soup made with fish, seafood, vegetables, and herbs, thickened with cream. I thoroughly enjoyed all the flavors. The traditional, soft Guinness bread with salted butter was a lovely accompaniment to the appetizers and then the main courses. To continue the delicious experience, I enjoyed a pot of mussels. Admittedly, they were much smaller than the Bouchot mussels I'm used to, which surprised me, but my taste buds were delighted by the flavors imparted by the sauce. It was delicious and very generous. A fruity, semi-dry cider on tap was also much appreciated. And for all this, the value for money is unbeatable, and the staff are always smiling. I highly recommend it.

09/05/2026: My boyfriend and I are visiting from the US and went here for dinner and drinks. We had such a kind server and absolute great service. The food was delicious and beautifully presented! We spent some time at the bar afterwards as per our servers recommendation and had a great time. The location is beautiful as well, 10/10 would recommend!
08/05/2026: I ordered the Calamari, it wasnt what I expected, the aioli i wasn't sure what flavour it was in it, the salad was limp with no real flavour, the fries were not house made.

Veldon's Seafarer


Letterfrack
14/04/2026: The best restaurant of our road trip!!! It doesn't look like much from the outside, but honestly, we highly recommend it!!! The fish was of incredible quality!
14/04/2026: Nice place, typical fisherman's decor. Classic but tasty and very generous portions. The men's toilets outside smell terrible and give a bad first impression. But don't let that put you off. The Guinness Zero is nice and cold 😉

Gallery Cafe


Gort
19/05/2026: Our experience was fantastic. Sarah looked after us and made our evening a really lovely one. The service was quick, the atmosphere felt relaxing yet elevated, and the portions were very generous. The food was delicious, and the chef was incredibly accommodating, kindly adjusting the seafood linguine for me by adding more prawns instead of clams. It was such a thoughtful touch. Dining here feels like being transported to a chic restaurant experience right in Gort. Easily the best restaurant in town.
17/05/2026: Great sausage rolls and the coffee is good.

We were served by a young friendly gent, Eamonn, who was welcoming, helpful in suggesting dishes on the menu and a credit to the team. The atmosphere was relaxed in the lovely fresh air, the service was excellent, and the food was delicious. A perfect spot to enjoy afternoon lunch in the sunshine. We’ll definitely be back.
