The best restaurantsof irish in Kenmare

21/06/2026: To David and The staff at Davitts Guesthouse Kenmare. Myself And my friend stayed for the weekend at Davitts for my best friends Wedding. And from start to finish, we had the most welcoming and friendliest experience. The room was so comfortable and spacious and the breakfast was such a lovely homemade start to our day. We had the pleasure of meeting with David the owner. Such a gentleman. He kindly drove us to Kilarney Train Station to make sure we got the train home safe. We would highly recommend Davitts Guesthouse Kenmare for your Next Stay and ours. Thank You for Everything and we will return soon to the Kingdom 🌟 ☘️ Jennifer Duggan And Kay Moore

15/06/2026: Dogs aren't allowed in the inside bar but they have a good sized beer garden at the back (accessible from the street behind) which is dog friendly. And if you're solo with dogs - as I was - you can order and pay from your table

15/09/2026: Have a been a couple of times over the past few months and it was great on both occasions. Try the delicious Beef Wellington

05/09/2026: We arrived without a reservation and with our two year old son for dinner around 5:45pm on a Friday night. Laura and her staff accommodated us and served us the best meal we have had in Ireland. The scallops and beef pie were spectacular, as were the treacle and Guinness bread and the sticky toffee pudding. This is now a must stop for us every time we are in Kenmare. It should be for you too!

07/09/2026: Excellent! Great live music included.

07/09/2026: Absolutely the friendliest staff, music was great and the food and drink a credit to Kenmare.

31/08/2026: We had an exquisite night here. Mike and his team are incredibly personable and Mike loves to come out of the kitchen and meet and greet his punters, he is a lovely man. The setting is fab, and the building has a fantastic story. It was a rent collectors during English rule and then during the great hunger they gave out tickets to sail to America, not free I may add…you had to relinquish your property to the English landlords. Enough about that… the food is excellent. The prawn cocktail is a throw back with modern flare. The catch of the day, Hake, was cooked perfectly, and the scallops were to die for. Love this place and highly recommend it.

29/08/2026: Grace looked after us tonight, top class, thank you.

02/08/2026: Real friendly staff Food was excellent Have no problem in recommending 110%

28/07/2026: Stunning - an absolute must if you love driving too! What an incredible bit of road

15/07/2026: Gluten pizza which was v.nice for a random pub. Service was ok, you order from an app but it was lovely sitting in the pub garden in the sun.

15/07/2026: Wonderful stay at ODonnabhain’s. The hosts, Jer and Vanessa, along with the staff made us feel welcome and comfortable during our 3 night stay. Perfectly located in Kenmare, day trips to the Ring of Kerry and the Beara were possible.

30/08/2026: We booked PF McCarthy's for day two of our wedding last weekend. They were an absolute pleasure to deal with. Meg looked after us the entire way and made sure all our questions were answered and requests met. She was laid back and easy to deal with - which was a perk, seeing as we had the actual wedding day to worry about too - but never left us feeling neglected or concerned. The food was unbelievable, with a huge amount of options to choose from and varied price points to suit your budget. The vegetarian options were a particular stand out and left our meat eating guests looking at them with envy! Great selection of drinks, particularly for myself as a non-drinker. The pints were nice and creamy, or so I've been told! The staff were extremely professional and adaptive on the day, and went above and beyond to make us feel looked after. We had visited most pubs in the village a few months before hand, and settled on PFs as our favorite based on vibes. Their hospitality on our day 2 exceeded our expectations and left all our guests delighted and full of praise.

23/08/2026: An authentic, village-style restaurant/pub with an exceptional atmosphere. We ordered a variety platter, and the standout dishes were the delicious tomato soup with seafood and the chocolate fondant. That evening, a fantastic singer and guitarist played live, accompanied by a young percussionist. They performed popular songs with soul and passion.
