The Old Barracks Restaurant
Athenry
03/04/2025: Dined here on "Mothers Day" which is usually a challenging day for restaurants but you couldn't say it had any impact on the service we received. The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful. we were promptly seated on arrival, there was no delay in getting menus, ordering etc. we had some kids and adults in our party and Lauren and the rest of the staff were so patient and attentive they made us feel as though we were the only table in the restaurant (we absolutely were not the only table, it was really really busy). Main courses were fantastic, kids food (with individually spec'd bugers!!) was spot on, the beef main course was incredible (and the kids half roast was monstrous and every bit as good as the adults!!). We were dining late in the day and while they were trying to wind down the day (I think they had closed the doors by the time we ordered dessert) they remained as attentive and helpful as ever. at no stage did we feel like we had overstayed and we left very much in our own time. a beautiful setting to boot but the champions here were the food and the service. couldn't recommend this highly enough, will certainly be back!!
30/03/2025: An excellent experience. Breakfast was perfect. Staff were friendly and efficient, despite it being a busy morning. Atmosphere was delightful. I highly recommend this place.

Abbeyglen Castle Hotel
Clifden
20/03/2025: Thank You to all the, Staff we had a Fantastic time. See
17/03/2025: A luxury authentic old world hotel with superb personalised service!
Reminds me of the Ritz's, I visited 20 years ago which had a similar feel with the quality of service.
Rooms, views, gardens, food, classical piano at dinner and further musical entertainment in bar after dinner.
In a world where hotels are more efficient than personal, this hotel stands alone.
From the lovely lady in reception to service staff, the experience is warm, inviting and genuine.
The rooms are not your typical instead lots of character and spotlessly clean.
One feels really taken care of and this is due to the attentive owners who are present everywhere. This is so rare and it ripples throughout to the happy staff.
Thank you Brian and Abbeyglen staff for a beautiful fun experience. We will be back soon!

02/03/2025: Very deceiving from the outside, a really huge and most interesting pub (even found a wise man and a shepherd from a large crib of some Christmas past.
Friendly and efficient service, and a sandwich that combines onion and banana (yes I did).
Great spot.

Veldon's Seafarer

13/04/2025: Small chowder portions - not enough especially after a hike but tasty nonetheless. The atmosphere and the whole look of the restaurant is however nice and warm.
13/04/2025: Excellent welcome, a waitress spoke French and all the staff were very helpful. Top food we tried the soup, the beef burger, the fish and chips and the apple pie, very fresh.

Armorica
Oranmore
15/03/2025: So disappointed, my starter was brie, ice cold in the middle. Mains were disappointing, potatoes burnt,.I got the brill which was fine, however the sauce was tasteless and veg overdone. My husbands duck was fatty. Our chips came after we had nearly finished our mains, in fairness they took the price off them off the bill. As the place got busier the service disapproved, had to ask for our drinks several times. It was the same waiting for our bill, asked twice and they handed us the wrong one
Won't be going back .
08/03/2025: Fantástico almuerzo de pescado John Dory, verduras a la parrilla, patata bebé, puré de zanahoria y deliciosa salsa todo sin gluten y muchas otras ofertas en el menú para satisfacer al cliente sin gluten. Postre de sorbete y pera escalfada... Devine ... . . también para notar la provisión de pan tostado sin gluten que en realidad sabía bien ... el servicio era excelente y simplemente apreciaba verdaderamente la consideración de aquellos con necesidades alimentarias particulares. Volveré al 100%.

Raftery's Rest
30/03/2025: Never going back to this place. Treated my best friend to a birthday lunch. Bacon was chewy, brocolli was rock hard. And to top it all off, the owner or the manager, whichever she was, ran out after us shouting to ask if we paid for our lunch as we were getting into our car! I said of course we did! I had to walk back in with her where I had to tell her which girl I paid, was asked to wait in the middle of the PACKED restaurant while she brought 2 girls over to me, one after the other. The first shook her head. The second one confirmed that of course I had paid. Ok you're fine she said, rubbing my arm. Was never so mortified in all my life and will never go back. Keep your receipts guys in case she runs out after you too.
29/03/2025: lovely people, nice food ,plenty of parking around the back
