33 South Main
Leixlip legal town
09/07/2025: Really nice pub, good look and feel about the place. Friendly helpful staff and the beer is really good, great pint when in the area.
24/05/2025: Plenty of friendly staff in a busy eatery. Hot food ought to be on a hot plate, my chips were cold and my hamburger overdone and the dearest price I have ever paid for a burger in Europe. Onions rings lovely. But overall impression, not interested, just dish it out. Had I been on my own I would have walked out.

The Hideout
Kilcullen
19/04/2025: Staff were lovely, very friendly and efficient. Alot of dishes on the menu, but we got the toasties and chips. Toasties were decent, chips were nice and hot.
I also got a latte, and the glass had visible coffee stains dried into it. That didn't come off when I rubbed it to check.
Also, the womens bathrooms have cameras in them over the mirrors pointing at the stalls, which was a bit disturbing. The toilets looked like they hadn't been cleaned in a long time, visible build-up of dirt on and around the toilet seat, the smells was also disgusting in the toilets. Only one hand dispenser had soap in it, there was toilet paper just left lying around.
08/04/2025: Every now and then you find a place that ticks all the boxes and the Hideout Kilcullen was just that. Made a reservation for two for an anniversary dinner and arrived early, no problem, showen to a nice table by Leigh who was so polite and helpful. We ordered two different dinners and didn't have long to wait, the food was beautifully presented and plenty of it, very tasty. Another member of staff Demi was so bubbley and chatted to us making us feel welcome which added to a wonderful evening. I will definitely return, big thanks to the staff.

The Thatch Bar & Restaurant
Ballymore eustace
23/04/2025: Oh my god a little piece of heaven. My friend took myself and husband for my birthday. We had the hake and my god the taste was something else actually tasted like fish. The pea purée was amazing. Highly recommend prices good staff excellent will definitely be back. I took my grandson a sausage roll home as know he loves them and said best sausage roll he ever had.
05/04/2025: Very poor salad the chicken was over cooked it was hard to eat. Glasses were filthy. Place wasn't very clean and the staff took ages to take the order.
Chairs are very uncomfortable. Not very relaxing. And over all poor food.

The Orangery
22/05/2025: We were attending a wedding and stayed in the associated hotel (The Cliff at Lyons) on an inclusive package. Their main restaurant (The Mill) is separately reviewed.
We took breakfast here both Saturday and Sunday. We were not expecting to have lunch either day, so ordered the full Irish breakfast both days, although there was a decent choice of lighter dishes . This was a major repast. Orange juice and a compote of fruit was served immediately and good despite most fruit being out of season, the full Irish breakfast was authentic, great and was served with an afternoon tea type stand heaped with toast, Guiness soda bread, scones, croisants and pain au chocolat, all stiil warm. Super coffee and tea. Service very good, quick and efficient, especially on the Sunday when we had to leave to catch a plane. The walk in price for this is high, but you will get your money's worth. Lovely ambience, especially in the morning sun.
The wedding breakfast was also served in here (from about 17:30) after canapes in teh garden. This too was excellent, especially for a group cater, however I will not be reviewing this as it was not my party, nor did I pay for it.
30/01/2025: If you're looking for a nice spot for the a date or celebration, The Orangery is a great choice. The food was fantastic and the setting was beautiful.

The Gallops
Maynooth
05/07/2025: I have been so disappointed with the staff and service today. They should be ashamed of themselves for how they have treated me today. I was there at around 13pm today for lunch with my son. When we arrived I said we will seat outside because I am pregnant and I m feeling sick if i feel any smell. I have ordered from the kids menu a chicken salad, fish and chips and a pizza, and a chocolate brownie for desert, my son wanted chips and pizza and I was thinking we could share the food as I couldn't eat much and didn't even know if I could actually eat anything at all. When ordered the girl said if the food was for me or sharing, I said sharing and she said because I wasn't allowed to order from kids menu so I explained I was sick and don't know if I could eat anyways. I have been with my family so many times there and ofcourse I have never ordered from kids menu for myself . This was just because of my pregnancy. The fish was so oily and the batter had still flour in it. No taste, my son tried it and refused to eat it. I had a bite from it and everything else was still in the plate. My son had 2 slices of pizza, i have tried it also and the dough was so mushy. After this, we got our plates cleaned ..even if the plates were still full, the staff didn't ask if everything was fine with the food. We got the desert and I wanted one for myself also. I have been refused the desert as the staff said she wasn't allowed to add on my order from kids menu, i said she doesn't have to as I can take one from the normal menu, but she said thats not available on that menu, so she refused to get me the desert. I have left the restaurant and I don't think I ever felt so disgusted with the way everything was handled.
25/05/2025: I was so looking forward to this and I was very disappointed.mushroom starter were only out of a packet ...no flavour at all .....pork belly was disgusting...spuds were cold and not nice ...like smash so not good ....looks nice on paper but didn't enjoy ....burger mmmmm no taste at all more lettuces than anything...dessert was just ok .....now the staff .....dropped my knife but no one can to replace it ...girl twice came to the table and didn't take the empty water bottle and replace it till I got annoyed and asked her.....all the did was stand around talking..I even had to go to the bar to pay my bill as they were all in talking...sorry to say we didn't enjoy this and certainly wasn't worth €79 ....won't be back and no k wouldn't recommend to Friends either.

21/03/2025: Stopped here with my sister and mother before heading to a concert in Dublin. The sandwiches we ordered were massive and oh so delicious. The staff were so hospitable and the food came out hot and fast. It was the perfect feed to keep us going for the evening. Would highly recommend it and will be looking forward to returning when I am in the area again
