The best restaurantsof irish in Kildare

28/06/2026: Perfect breakfast right after getting off the plane in Dublin!

07/06/2026: Really lovely breakfast here , very friendly staff . Will definitely come back to try another meal here .

12/07/2026: Lovely food, good service and very attentive staff.

11/07/2026: very disappointed with the food 😞 it was bad !

08/07/2026: What a lovely place. Visiting the area staying in Naas. Took the 126 bus that stops in multiple stops as it makes its way toward Dublin Connolly. The pub opened at 12 noon but greeted an 5 til the top of the hour when zipped my head in for a look. Reading reviews prior to my visit, all 5 stars given are on point. This is a destination worth visiting for great food and in house brewed beer. Not much else around that I can see in Kill but nonetheless, this is worth the ride as the bus drops you less than a half block away. There are no seats at the bar. Was hoping for that as I love chatting up the bartender to gain insight into the area and how the gastropub and brewery came about. Lots of seating and found a cozy spot to the side of the bar to set up my laptop and plan to do a little bit of work. They have a guest WiFi network if needed. I had room for just one beer and selected the award winning Helles. On a 28 C day it hit the spot. There are a couple of seasonal beers on and as well as the standard formats. The brewery caught my attention after having a their juicy pale ale Elipssis at a pub in Naas. There is a beautiful patio to sit outside and it’s covered but bright an airy. Problem is smokers inside like to step outside the door to have a smoke. I wish there would be a standard that smokers have to step away 10 meters from anywhere food is served. Allow the breeze to diffuse the second hand smoke. Enjoy your visit to this gem in Kill, County Kildare Ireland.

04/07/2026: First time here. And will 100% be back for more. Excellent service and beautiful food. I highly recommend the potato skin starter to share as a couple. Fantastic. Good sized carpark in the rear. Wpuld have preferred option of large bottle of sparkling water or from the splash instead of small bottles . But that just 1 small gripe

19/05/2026: Amazing room, great staff. Second time staying and will stay again in the future.

18/05/2026: Very nice restaurant. Great service. I recommend it.

02/06/2026: This place was excellent. Great food, great beer, great people. We traveled from the States and this pub was only a short walk from our Vrbo. We visited this pub twice, as our first and last stop in Ireland, since it was so good. There is even a parking lot right behind back with cheap parking. 10/10 would recommend and will be eating/drinking here again when we eventually visit Ireland again.

27/04/2026: Lovely atmosphere, class service

19/04/2026: We had a wonderful meal here tonight, the burger was put of this world. Thank you for treating us so well.

05/04/2026: Connor, the barman at Avenue Bar and Restaurant, is absolutely exceptional. His mixology is incredible, his service is outstanding, and it is all topped off with the kind of personality every customer hopes for. Connor is the reason we became repeat customers. If his drinks were not already the star of the show, he easily would be himself. He has made several evenings truly memorable. Matteo also deserves a special mention. He is consistently welcoming, attentive and professional, and he adds so much to the warm atmosphere of the place. His service is excellent, and he helps make every visit feel smooth, relaxed and enjoyable. They are truly lucky to have him, and his contribution certainly does not go unnoticed. Andrew was an absolute pleasure to be served by. He was attentive, personable and eager to make sure everything was just right, and nothing ever felt like too much trouble. What really stood out was the human touch in his service — we had such a lovely chat with him, and it was genuinely refreshing to be served by someone so warm and engaging.

13/06/2026: A lovely pub, great atmosphere, good Nechi beer, very tasty and inexpensive food.

04/06/2026: Food lovely and nice atmosphere Usually food pubs don't attract drinkers but this has good mix of both hence good atmosphere

15/06/2026: Celebrated our 10 year anniversary this week. Lovely spot outside, great and friendly staff and the food is to die for.

12/06/2026: Had lunch and the food was excellent. The place was very busy for a Saturday so it necessary to book in advance.

24/05/2026: Hartes has been one of my favorite places to eat for a decade, but over the last year or two, the standards have noticeably slipped. During a recent visit for Sunday lunch, the service was lacking; no one came to check on our meal, and we had to ask for basic table settings like salt and pepper. The food itself was incredibly disappointing. The horseradish mentioned on the menu was missing entirely, and the dish lacked the warmth you'd expect, tasting as though it had been sitting under a heat lamp. The roast potatoes were easily the worst I’ve had—soggy and practically tasteless. To top it off, the portions were tiny despite the expensive price tag. Overall, the food has become mediocre. It completely lacks the flair and originality that made Hartes so special years ago.

22/05/2026: My wife and I wandered in here while in Kildate town. What a find. Food was outstanding, great menu (spoiled for choice), very reasonably priced. It was a Thursday, 5.30-6ish, and the place was packed by 7. Many Restaurant Association Awards on the wall as you walk in, I can see why. Great to find a place putting out that level of quality so near to where we live.

27/06/2026: The Bistro at Lawlors of Naas served us the worst food ever tonight. Asked for Chips without salt they came out pickled. Beef dish was disgusting beef tasted weird, big lump of cabbage and all served in a puddle of bisto. Left our complaint with duty manager who also couldn't care less as he was just trying to get through the night with undertrained, understaffed, servers. Will never return here again

22/06/2026: Fabulous hotel. Beautifully decorated and very clean. Breakfast great choice. Staff really efficient and friendly. Would definitely recommend.

07/06/2026: Well appointed rooms. Friendly staff

04/06/2026: Delightful venue, amazing scones, sterling atmosphere

25/04/2026: Nice stop - great coffee, tasty toasties and lovely staff (and beautifully written menus on blackboard!!😄).

19/04/2026: Lovely place to grab a delicious very filling breakfast! Big eater so portions are very fair with a lovely welcoming atmosphere

03/07/2026: Everything was splendid. We really enjoyed.

02/07/2026: Were nice place, whoever rides e-bike along royal canal this is a place to stop. There is a double socket in the front yard that can be used to recharge.

20/05/2026: Best pint of Guinness in Naas and the staff are great

14/05/2026: The food was delicious and really enjoyable, but the service let the experience down. Our food arrived before our drinks, and we could see the drinks sitting on a tray at the bar for around ten minutes. At one point I was very tempted to collect them myself. When I asked about them, the waitress said she would go check, which was a bit frustrating given it was 4pm on a Thursday and not busy. The food itself was very good, but the service needs more attention and organisation.

20/05/2026: Nice shop well stocked but one very rude and disrespectful staff member . No manners she should be working a funeral parlour where she is not in contact with public.

09/05/2026: 3.95 for kids sausage and chips, ideal, great deli and good selection
