The Canvas Café
Kill
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.

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.

Dew Drop Gastropub
Kill
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.

Harte's
Kildare
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.

Avenue
Maynooth
22/07/2026: Had the Surf and Turf for Dinner.
Service was good. Wine was a good recommendation for the meal.
Shrimp tasted great and perfect temperature. However the steak lacked taste, it was cooked perfectly (medium rare) but a bit cool upon delivery. Mashed potatoes also cool on delivery.
This could have been due to how busy they were.
I would definitely try again.
22/07/2026: Top shelf food and service. Every detail is about great taste and quality. Even bread is so delicious. Will come back again and will recommend to everyone

The Village Inn
Celbridge
04/07/2026: Super pub, paul, donal and ross are excellent operators, alanana and the floor staff are all amazing and its by far the best pub in celbridge for food and service
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.

Lawlors
Naas legal town
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.
