The best restaurantsof irish in Killarney

09/06/2026: Stopped by Vendricks for dinner and had some great seafood. It's got a relaxed vibe, good service, and the food really hit the spot. Would definitely go back.

09/06/2026: Great balance of Irish cuisine and fine dining

29/04/2026: Decent food, but the fish chowder was not creamy enough. Fish and chips and shepherd's pie were alright. Service was good.

28/04/2026: Lovely food. Our birthday girl was made to feel very special! Thank you!

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.

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.

19/05/2026: Great pub for a pint, one of the best places I found. Easy to make new friends. Highly recommended

13/05/2026: Prices for BEER differs a lot (see photo)

10/06/2026: Went there on a recommendation of our tour guide and a it was perfect. 1st time having Irish stew and now the bar is set very high. We also had wings and it's not Texas spicy but the breading was excellent. Fast and very friendly.

09/06/2026: Huge bar with delicious food and good service. We enjoyed the lamb Irish stew and the burger, both were great. We also enjoyed one of their whiskey tastings. Our waitress was great.

19/05/2026: Born and raised in coastal New England. Best chowder I’ve ever had. Went twice in a 3 day span for it. Might ruin chowder for me going forward!!

15/05/2026: Seafood chowder was amazing, fish and chips were delicious. Small restaurant in a great location with free parking from 6:30 pm. Friendly staff, fast service, quality food.

13/06/2026: Very good fish and chips. Fast service.

12/06/2026: We ate Valentia Harbour Chowder (a very delicious fish soup) and Pan Fried Salmon. We were satisfied. The place is small and has an open kitchen, so the inside of the restaurant smells a bit like frying. That's the only disadvantage.

09/06/2026: I wanted to love it, but several things fell short for us. We had a reservation, but the reception at the door was as if we were imposing a large group with no warning.... reservation was made weeks ago. Service was somewhat spotty with several staff attending- no consistency and some wait time. Bar manager seemed annoyed by our presence and our food allergy inquiries, and our musical requests to the band - odd feeling really. The food was just so so. Very little flavor in the salmon, the tarter sauce, the fish etc.... Nothing special. Didn't feel welcomed. Sorry, just wasn't a great experience.

02/06/2026: There were five of us at dinner and each of us had a different dish. We were all very satisfied. The atmosphere with the Irish music was also great.

19/05/2026: Great food, had a shared portion of chicken wings was a perfect portion for 2, also lovely pints of Murphys, our server was very friendly and helpful

04/05/2026: Hi there, I was with a group of relations and I had the fish and chips. Very poor, hard batter and minimum fish I would not recommend at over €30 euro. I would not recommend this establishment spend your money in the chipper or take away, the food in any take away could not be worse. Regards, John

18/05/2026: Seeing the restaurant's rave reviews, and having had an absolutely awful day, I was thrilled when a table became available. I'd barely sat down for a few minutes, while still on a voice call to my parents to recount my day, when the waiter rushed me to order because, and I quote, "there are people waiting outside." The implication was that I needed to hurry up and choose (and frankly, as if I cared that people were waiting outside?). I came here to relax, but this is off to a bad start… The food and beer arrived quickly, and thankfully, they were pretty good. But I'd barely finished my last fry when my plate was whisked away. And the bill was brought right after. Like, way too fast, almost like I was being rushed out the door. I still had to ask the waiter if I could finish my beer… I'm going to conclude that it's perhaps (I hope) a misunderstanding and a cultural difference (whereas in France, time in a restaurant is sacred because we're there to savor and enjoy ourselves) and not a purely profit-driven approach to rushing service, which would be offensive to a customer.

29/04/2026: Very decent food though a bit pricey. Especially liked the fish chowder and lamb shank. Fish and chips was OK. Service is good.

17/05/2026: The best mussels I’ve ever had … didn’t know that mussels can be soooo tasty & omg … the duck was amazing ! The skin was crispy & the meat was full of flavor ! And of course the steak … perfectly done … probably the best meal in all of Ireland ❤️💚

05/05/2026: We had a very nice meal here. The food was wonderful, and the staff was accommodating, even though we showed up on a Saturday night with no reservation during the rally of the lakes. I'd recommend it if you're looking for a nice dinner, but probably not the place to go if you're out for drinks, it was definitely a nicer atmosphere

20/04/2026: Perfectly located Quaint Home Feel Great Entertainment

17/04/2026: Wonderful experience,had family function last weekend, a1 from start to finish will be back again.

01/06/2026: We had to wait more than 40 minutes for our food to arrive, which was far too long. When it finally came, the food was quite simple and unfortunately it was served cold. To make matters worse, we found a hair in one of the sauces, which was very unpleasant and raised concerns about hygiene standards. Overall, the experience was disappointing. The portions were filling, but the long wait, cold food and hygiene issue meant we would not be in a hurry to return.

27/05/2026: It’s a good spot with really good coffee. We had americano, latte and a brownie. The food was top notch. But the service was a bit slow when we were there. The staff were friendly and welcoming.

03/12/2025: Lovely location and accommodating staff. Booked the suite and the whole hotel was decorated in the spirit of Christmas which was lovely. Just one minor suggestion: Consider partnering with local artists for artwork to be added to rooms and potentially it being able to be research via qr code and purchased.

02/12/2025: Room was very comfortable, the perfect size with plenty of space, but not too big. Excellent bathroom. Service at the hotel were excellent. All staff were outstanding, very helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was excellent, poached egg and avocado was delicious, eggs perfectly cooked. Having access to the swimming pool at the Great Southern was a great bonus and it is only across the road from the townhouse.

10/06/2026: Fabulous location Lovely food Nice room Great atmosphere in the bar.

09/06/2026: Tatler Jack was great. We stayed two nights and the room was cozy and fit our needs. The pub had great food (especially the included breakfast) and the drinks were plentiful and priced right. The nightly music was fun and surprisingly not too loud in the room above. The location can't be beat and is close to everything. If you want a fun spot in the heart if Killarney, Tatler Jack is a fine option.
