The best restaurantsof irish in Oranmore

10/11/2024: We arrived late to stay in airbnb in portmagee and our host mentioned three places around for a late sunday dinner. We did not have high expectations. After looking at all three places we chose Moorings because, surprisingly, it looked packed. The wait for table was pleasantly short and we chose beef stew and shellfish bisque. What a treat it was. Like Elaine Benes i am a sucker for bisque and that one was on par with the best i sampled. Beef stew was also very good. Congratulations to the chef and the restaurant attentive staff. Well done

06/11/2024: There are not many options in Portmagee during the off season, so we were very pleased with the quality of offerings in The Moorings. It has a large and varied regular menu as well as some very good specials. The food is excellent as is the service. My sister and I both had the seafood chowder as a starter and planned on sharing the goat cheese salad from the specials menu as our main. The chowder was so rich and plentiful that we never got around to the salad. My husband had the spinach and cheese tortellini and raved about it. My nephew had the seafood platter which was also excellent. My husband and I went back later in the week and had trouble choosing what to order. I don’t think you can go wrong with whatever you order at The Moorings.
