The best restaurantsof irish in Kildare

09/08/2026: The nicest food I’ve had! The staff is so lovely. 10/10 every time

08/08/2026: Nice and clean place with kind staff, but the music is a bit loud. The food is very good, but for the price the portions are very small: a single slice of bread with avocado and salmon for €16.

26/07/2026: At 1st sight not a great impression even though we like (even fake) Eames chairs. But food was BY FAR the best we had on our Ireland trip. I had the Piri Piri chicken which I suggest all wanna be chefs should try to set their standards and the whole family was happy with their food. A marvelous surprise!

20/07/2026: The food was quick to come and was amazing quality and was delicious.

04/06/2026: I can't say enough about our experience at Silken Thomas. The owners are clearly treating their staff well, because it shows in how the staff treat the clients. Everyone from Reception, to the Bar, to the Restaurant (for both dinner and breakfast), to the person who showed us to our room, had a smile on their face and looked happy to be there. We felt well taken care of and everything we ate was delicious. We both loved the location and the recent redo, especially the shower. Special shout out to the lovely room cleaners and management who went the extra-mile to not only reach out to me to let me know I'd left a t-shirt behind on the bed, but also posted it to me in Dublin. My offer to reimburse them for the postage fell on deaf ears. The t-shirt has an illustration of a dearly departed pet on it and means an enormous amount to me, so I'll never forget Silken Thomas's kindness. Aces from top to bottom.

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

04/08/2026: I went here on Sunday with my family for the first time and I'm already planning my next visit. Staff were so friendly and attentive and the food was fab. I had the Sunday roast and my partner had the seabass special. Both amazing. It was extremely busy there when we went but it looked like the staff were well used to it. If I could give more stars I would.

03/08/2026: Had my partners Mark 60th birthday party in the Green Room. The food platters were incredible and the young male server looking after us was so nice cheerful and friendly, wish i got his name. Sarah , the manager was so helpful when it came to organising this event. Everyone who attend had a fantastic time. I would highly recommend Dew Drop Inn . Thanks to all the Staff for making this a truly wonderful evening. Catherine.

02/08/2026: Delicious food, great service and comfortable setting.

31/07/2026: Great food and great service! Very friendly staff. The duck is exceptional.

02/08/2026: Very welcoming, lady told us how odering worked and the most popular dishes. Food was beautiful and the lemonde was so refreshing.

22/07/2026: A very charming family business with excellent quality and friendly service. Definitely recommended in Castledermot – well worth a detour! We came to Castledermot from Duckett Grove to see the Roundtower and the Abbey.

26/07/2026: The crispiest fish and chips of my life! Thanks guys!

22/07/2026: We went on our Date night too see what the two courses for €30 special would be like but there was nothing on the options that tickeled our fancy. However we were pleasantly surprised to find a steak on the stone special at €30 per person and we decided to run with that. The steak was absolutely delicious and was served with house chunky chips and mushroom and pepper sauce. It was served on a massive platter plate and was the best steak we have had in a long time. The staff were all really friendly and knew the menu inside out. We had Chicken wings to start whick were massive and a shared chocolate Fondant for dessert. The place was very busy for a Tuesday night and this gives an indication of how lovely overall the atmosphere is. And as Arnie says..Ill be back.

22/08/2026: Not as nice as it used to be. Had dinner there on Thursday evening, we had the chicken wings and could still taste the oil. The crispy chicken burger was soggy and not great.

03/08/2026: Absolutely fantastic restaurant 🥳 highly recommend them to everyone 🥳 lovely friendly staff 🥳 an they can sing too 🥳 love you all from ADDA 🥳🥳🥳🥳

10/08/2026: Service was prompt and friendly. Group of 15 and were given sufficient seating and space. Waiters were friendly and very prompt. Highly recommend if you need good food and friendly atmosphere.

09/08/2026: Food and service really good, free wifi, kids menu, couldn't fault it

12/08/2026: Great food . Big lounge. First pint of Guinness poured in this bar ever in the world 🌎

09/08/2026: Food is excellent, staff are friendly and attentive. New smash burger is top quality, crispy on outside and nice and juicy in the middle, well cooked

20/07/2026: Fab food Fab staff Fab atmosphere

18/07/2026: Chips were so hard and greasy from obviously being cooked in dirty oil. Service was very slow. Servers were very friendly and nice.In spite of asking for dairy free and being assured we could have it,we got gravy all over the dinner!!! Definitely will not be back.

25/07/2026: Lovely spot on the canal. Food was nice, i should've had a starter but i was in a hurry.

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

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

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

27/07/2026: Surprisingly great hotel right in the middle of town. First off, it's huge - much bigger and more interestingly laid out than you'd first think, with plush furnishings and decor in the bar, restaurant and common areas. Rooms were massive and well equipped, and the breakfast buffet was excellent. Overall, a very pleasant stay with free underground parking and a lovely welcome from the staff

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

27/07/2026: Very busy petrol station with very helpful staff A+++

19/06/2026: Fresh deli/sandwich/baguettes. Good serving sizes.
