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.

Tibhurca, Clonbur


06/07/2026: Dorrota, Justyna, and Dominik are fantastic! Excellent food and brilliant service. You need to come here for truly quality food, and very friendly service. The prices are very reasonable and the restaurant is in a lovely setting. Live music made the night even more enjoyable. Portion size was truly filling but it did not take away from the quality of the food.
02/07/2026: We had such a wonderful meal here recently. The food was absolutely delicious and presented with such care. Everything tasted fresh and flavourful. I was particularly impressed by the curry, which came with a perfect side of naan bread. It was a hearty and comforting dish that hit the spot. We also really enjoyed the pasta and the roast, as each plate was cooked to perfection. The atmosphere was lovely and the whole experience was truly enjoyable. It is rare to find a place where every single dish is this consistent. We will definitely be coming back soon for another visit.

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 😉

Pat Cohan


Conga
11/07/2026: Everything was excellent! The food was delicious, and we were very happy with the service. A special thanks to Giuseppe, our waiter, whose Spanish was outstanding despite being Italian. It was wonderful to see someone so passionate about his job and genuinely committed to making our experience memorable. Thank you so much! We highly recommend this restaurant.
08/07/2026: Myself and my wife were there this last Saturday night around 7pm. The place was nearly empty for food but we were still seated right beside the door opposite the bar ( about 8 feet away from the bar drinkers.) I've never before been hungry having paid nearly €42 for a steak dinner. This is the epitome of gouging on a national level. It advertises as a restaurant. It's overpriced bar food. Scandalous. I've decided to give the place some free advertising on X. Its gaining traction as we speak.. Over 3000 views and 3 reposts from followers from America 🇺🇸

Ardagh


06/06/2026: Thoroughly enjoyed every part of our stay, rooms were fantastic, staff extremely friendly and couldn’t do enough for us, food was 10/10 especially the seafood. Highly recommend and will be staying again. Looking forward to it.
06/06/2026: Loved our stay here so much we extended it. So relaxing from the moment we arrived. Staff are all excellent warm, attentive but always understated. You feel very well looked after but you are always given space. Everything is spotless, decor is beautiful...a lot of thought and care has gone into it. A relaxing inviting lounge area, a big turf fire, eclectic mix of artwork, and interesting ornaments. A beautiful dining area with views over the sea, and a delicious dinner menu made for the most romantic memorable meal. Our dog was welcomed and we were never made to feel it was an inconvenience. Similarly the place is not overrun by pets and wouldn't disturb others. Can't wait to to go back ...thank you to you all

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.
