The best restaurantsof irish in Kenmare

10/07/2025: Really enjoyed our meal here in May, one of our top in Ireland. Options tend towards the "small plate" side so don't expect gigantic portions. This gives you the chance to try a few delicious things, and everything WAS delicious. We could tell this is the place that all the locals go when celebrating a special occasion. Always a good sign. Worth making reservations here!

10/07/2025: Outstanding. If you are in town please eat here

21/07/2025: Perfecto. Buena comida de buen humor buen precio. Buena música. Fácil de alcanzar. Absolutamente para intentarlo. Gracias chicos. Buena experiencia.

11/07/2025: Good place to eat or enjoy the night afterwards

30/07/2025: Lovely place that we have been for drinks before as we live locally, so we popped in for dinner with sister in law and hubby while they were visiting , food really delicious, just one negative, my guest likes to drink Prosecco, but it was €14 a glass, so two glasses €28!!! We felt that was over the top.. normally €10 is a max for a glass.. why??

30/07/2025: Honestly one of the worst dining experiences I have ever had. Menu had a good offering but service was unacceptable. Menus bluntly put on table. Starters arrive - two moments later male waiter announces to us that the kitchen was closing and our mains would be brought out immediately before we had finished the starters. Three kids meals ordered. Only one arrived. When I asked when the other kids meals would be out the waiter said I never ordered them & it was too late now. We obviously could not leave two of our kids without meals so decided as a family to pay in full & leave this restaurant. May I add our mains were on our table going cold while we ate our starter. I am sure keeping them under heat lamp would have been sufficient for a few more minutes. All of the above was made even worse by the manner of the male waiter who clearly did not want to be in work that day. No apology, even when we paid in full and expressed our disappointment. Not good enough but can confirm other nearly pub had brilliant food and service so will visit Kenmare again just not this establishment.

15/07/2025: Flavour is excellent, service prompt, and the presentation of the dishes was clearly very thought through. Reviews and menu photos here are a bit misleading, note that it is now €55 for a two course meal and €60 something for a three course. BUT IT IS WELL WORTH THE MONEY!!!! Also for gluten free people, the menu is varied and seems pretty accomodating. Most restaurants don't have as many options as this one. The gluten free desserts were a highlight. Brought group of 8 so here is the group ratings on assortment of dishes: ~ Starters Calamari : 7/10 pretty good, somewhat chewy but taste was good and batter just grand Chicken wings: 8/10 would recommend for people who like very sweet sauce on chicken wings Duck briquette: 8/10 one of the better ones we've tasted ~ Mains Lamb duo: 10/10 definitely the most enjoyed by everyone, cottage pie was incredibly tasteful and the lamb was cooked to perfection Chicken supreme: 9/10 also very delicious, portion size a bit on the smaller size but with a starter before it's perfect Steaks: 7/10 they were quite sinewy, a bit unsalted, but with the pepper sauce over it was just right so be sure to put the sauce on for a better taste ~ Desserts Sticky toffee pudding: 12/10, not only gluten free but absolutely delicious Brownie: 10/10 very rich and chocolatey ~Children's meals Penne pasta: 9/10 according to a ten year old, the sauce and cheese came seperate so kids can customise to their taste Chicken goujons with chips: 7/10 according to 8 year old Overall good experience and would absolutely recommend for a special occasion!

10/07/2025: Lucky to get a table on short notice. The tables were set nicely & food was well plated. Unfortunately the servers were spread too thin that night. Service was a bit slow and based on the atmosphere it seemed they should remember who ordered what; but food delivery was a bit mixed up within our family. We noticed we were seated upstairs with other families of young children while a large group of adults was boisterous with their “adult” conversation.

16/07/2025: Lovely restaurant. Went for Sunday lunch. A good choice of main course dishes on the menu. Good service, good food, lovely comfortable restaurant with a nice atmosphere. Would recommend and will return.

29/06/2025: Amazing food, I can't wait to call again. I think the wait time was a little bit long, but its worth it. I understand that things are cooked to order so I personally don't mind waiting the extra few minutes for food that is perfect (the beef burger was unreal). Nice atmosphere and excellent staff.

02/08/2025: The food was not worth the long wait, I did like the atmosphere and scenery around. I'd say the atmosphere would make me come back again.

01/08/2025: Very rude waiter We had a drink, and when it came time to order at 9:10 p.m., the blond waiter told us in a very rude manner that they no longer serve at this time. We went elsewhere. Plan an hour before you want to eat.

12/07/2025: Great service and manager was very nice. Food was decent. It was a little expensive in comparison to similar restaurants we had been to.

08/07/2025: Cottage pie was perfect. Dessert was tasty, but the bread was a bit dry.

05/02/2025: Tuve una cena encantadora en la herradura el sábado por la noche pasado. gran gracias al gerente que publicó mi copa de nuevo al corcho después de que los dejé atrás. Gran servicio

24/10/2024: Precioso lugar en la calle principal, buen asiento de ventana para unos pocos hoyos, y una oferta de cena muy agradable, opciones sin gluten disponibles también
