Ballymore Inn


Ballymore eustace
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.

The Canvas Café


Kill
17/08/2026: My husband and son stop here often when they are visiting grandad. I came with them this time and everyone was super excited, because 'You really need to eat something here, it's delicious!'. They were not wrong. The food is fantastic and the place itself small, but wonderful. When we were on our way home my husband mentioned 'This is my favorite spot to take my dad for lunch or dinner' and I can see why. Funny thing, my Father in law said the same before we left, 'My favorite little fancy restaurant in the area, I love going here'. They sell local artists paintings and the food is presented beautifully. It's kind of like they are creating memories for people and they do it well ♥ I ordered the superfoods pizza with goats cheese, shaved roasted sweet potatoes, walnuts and a side order of sweet potato chips. It was very tasty, so I forgot to take photos of the inside of the place! Can't wait to go back! Would 10/10 recommend.
16/08/2026: Great little cafe. The food is delicious, especially the pizzas 🍕

Silken Thomas, menu


Kildare
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.

Lawlors


Naas legal town
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
