The best restaurantsof irish in Kenmare

14/05/2026: Ate dinner in the restaurant about 6:15. Not too busy. Had Nachos that were very good. The fish and chips were delicious as well. Good kids menu.

11/05/2026: This was an Amazing visit to Davitts of Kenmare, from start to finish. We booked 4 x rooms for one night in April and it was perfect. My husband dealt with the owner David as it was a surprise for my 60th Birthday. He was so helpful and accommodating. The rooms were lush, cosy and spacious and exactly what we loved. He gave us early check-in so my adult kids could decorate our room for me with balloons & ribbons. The staff were so kind and so friendly. We ate in the bar that evening and again at breakfast the next morning and the food was superb...could not fault it. A lovely quaint bar/restaurant with everything we needed. The next morning we checked out and said our goodbyes and decided to take a wander around Kenmare but as we were about to head to our cars (about 90mins to 2 hours later) one of the staff spotted my daughter and her partner and gave her my house keys, wallet and an item of clothing that we had left in our room and had forgotten about 🙈. We would have been home before realising so again the service above and beyond was second to none. We could not recommend the Davitt enough and we cannot wait to go back. Please visit- you will not regret

07/05/2026: One of the best meals we had in a long time. Food was delicious and the staff was very nice. A pleasure and we would love to return.

07/05/2026: Just had the most delicious meal here. Plenty of choice, I had salmon and tastiest dish I've had in ages, highly recommend

04/05/2026: We arrived at 5:50. Ordered drinks. After asking several times when we might receive our meal they came back and said “oops”. Your order was never placed. 2 hours later, we received our food. My husband ordered the ribs and they were good. I ordered the Pork special and it was horrible. Our waitress never came back to see how we were doing. We had to ask someone else to clear our table and ask for our bill. We are here for 2 weeks and will never step foot in this joint again.

01/05/2026: A really nice pub; there was no live music when we were there, but they had Brewdog Punk on tap, along with a few other beers. The service was super fast, super friendly, and super attentive. The food was delicious and very reasonably priced.

07/04/2026: Eaten here multiple times... we keep coming back. Great atmosphere in a great town.

02/04/2026: Cosy winter dining at its absolute best ❄️🍽️ There’s something special about stumbling into the perfect restaurant on a cold, grey Irish evening — and The Lime Tree in Kenmare delivered exactly that. From the moment you step inside, you’re wrapped in warmth. Think rustic stone walls, soft lighting, and that intimate, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to stay all night. Pure Kerry magic 🇮🇪 We began with a complimentary bread basket — homemade sourdough and brown bread with olive oil and tapenade. Simple, comforting, and exactly what you need to ease into a winter meal 🫒🍞 The duck croquette was a standout — confit duck leg with Asian slaw, pickled plums, and plum sauce. Crispy on the outside, rich on the inside, with that sweet-tangy plum cutting through perfectly 🦆 Then came The Lime Tree’s famous sticky chicken wings — glossy, saucy, and completely fall-off-the-bone. You can tell why they’ve earned their place on the menu 🔥 For mains, the Duo of Kerry Lamb stole the show. A beautifully pink rack of locally sourced lamb alongside a mini shepherd’s pie, finished with confit garlic and thyme jus. Two styles, one incredible dish — and a perfect showcase of what Kerry does best. The pan-fried sirloin of Irish Hereford beef was equally satisfying — topped with crispy onions, confit shallot, and herb butter. Rich, classic, and exactly what you crave on a winter’s night. If you’re ever in Kenmare when the temperature drops, this is where you want to be
