Blind Piper
14/04/2026: Sat next to the fire, had a local beer and the roast of the day : pork loin with dressing, mashed and vegetables. Take the very SHORT detour off the Ring of Kerry for this place, you will be glad you did.

Cronins Restaurant
Killarney
20/04/2026: Exceptional experience. Great food, great staff and great to see an owner operated, family run business doing well.
15/04/2026: We barely had time to blink before the food landed on the table. Impressive speed, less impressive freshness. The lasagne was sweet enough to qualify as dessert, only smaller and somehow sadder. The lamb? Let’s just say it had clearly been through a long day.
Upstairs had all the charm of a workplace canteen, and the whole place felt like a “eat fast, make room” operation for the next wave of tourists.
Safe to say, I wont be returning, feels less like dining out and more like being processed.

04/04/2026: Simply one of the best restaurants in Ireland, the food quality was excellent, the service was very good, and the atmosphere was great. Thank you very much for the experience.

Reel Dingle Fish
An daingean
01/04/2026: Very friendly and welcoming staff. All cooked fresh to order! We much preferred this to our meal at The Fish Box to be honest, and at a fraction of the price.
27/03/2026: Sadly let down with hygiene, handling money and things then making burgers is really poor practice, no one washed their hands at any point and if that's the standard up front I hate to think what the rest of the operation is like. Food quality was unimpressive, soggy chicken burger not hot and chips not great.

Davitt's
Kenmare
14/04/2026: Absolutely a great place to stay for Kenmare and start of Ring of Kerry - service outstanding, whole place well appointed , huge breakfasts too
13/04/2026: My partner and I stayed at Davitts for two nights recently and could not have had a more pleasant experience. The room was spotless and very spacious with a great shower! Food was excellent especially the breakfast, highly recommend the porridge!
The staff were all very welcoming to us, especially David who was very friendly and we had great chats with. The location is perfect nestled right in the middle of town with plenty of options for food and bars around. Could not recommend Davitts more, we will definitely be recurring visitors.

Doyle's Seafood Bar
An daingean
31/03/2026: Honestly, best restaurant in Dingle. Food was delicious. Not too heavy, banging flavors and well balanced. Our party all ordered from the small plates and nibbles. Padron peppers are a must as is the hot and cold crab salad and lamb kebab. Really friendly service too. Complimentary drinks for my father's birthday too which was very kind of them. Overall, its hard to fault anything. Thank you all at Doyles
05/01/2026: Excellent all round. Food was exceptional

Celtic Whiskey Bar & Larder
Killarney
15/03/2026: Top class selection of Irish whiskey. As good as it gets really. Some very rare casks if you know what you’re looking for. The flights are decent too. Good selection of world whiskeys on offer as well. Clean, nicely decorated and spacious.
15/03/2026: Hosted a hen party crafty workshop here recently and the venue was brilliant, Daniel was most helpful with our set up process, so attentive and positive while serving all of our customers cocktails during the activity, and he even helped us clean up after. Totally unnecessary, we really appreciate it. Will definitely consider this venue again in future.

Cassidy's Restaurant
Tralee
09/04/2026: I am not really sure about traditional irish but I don't think this is it. I had the seafood chowder and he had the monk fish.
There was no real theme to the menu, some irish steaks, Thai food.... the inside is decorated worldly with no real irish theme.
The tablecloths have Fleur De lis so I was a little stumped.
09/04/2026: Very odd place. Not any real theme to the cuisine or the restaurant. Had a few Irish chicken dishes, a couple Thai selections and a few Italian selections. Service was friendly but just so so. We entered at what should have been a busy dinner time and the place was dead. After ordering, I can understand why. Long wait to get food and there was literally no one else in the building when we ordered. Wife ordered 2 appetizers, fried brie and seafood chowder. Both were good but nothing special. I had the roasted Monk fish wrapped in Ham w/muscles and prawn. Should have been called shrimp instead, they were very small as were the muscles. It was OK but overcooked. Rubbery and chewy. The decor was very chaotic as well. Just random oddities like a picture of Lyndon B Johnson with some unrecognizable people, an Indian Lamp, table cloths with French flur-de-lis. Just nothing fit together. I would not recommend this establishment. Enter at your own risk. You've been warned.
