The best restaurantsof irish in Limerick

28/10/2024: Driving from Celbridge to Dingle we stopped at Pat Collins bar in Adare. We arrived right as the owner Michael Collins opened the doors and gave us a friendly greeting. Service was quick and our order came right away. The vibe is warm and friendly. The Irish Stew and carrot soup was amazing.

20/10/2024: Myself and my husband had our wedding reception at The Dunraven Arms in July 2024 and we cannot speak highly enough of our experience throughout. From the first day of meeting Louis and his staff, we were made to feel so welcome and were so assured by their kindness and professionalism. In preparing for the day, we were given ample time by Louis to meet, discuss and plan everything according to our wishes. The day itself will be etched in our memories for the rest of our lives. Everything was top class from start to finish. The food, the staff, the ambience. We could not have wished for better. Our enthusiasm was shared by our many guests who were effusive in their praise of the hotel, the entire staff, and the delicious meal enjoyed by all. A special word of thanks to Hugh, Denis, Mariah and the wider catering staff. In summary, we loved our time at The Dunraven Arms. The staff were all exceptional and the standard of catering and accommodation was superb. A very sincere thank you to you all. Hats off on a job superbly done. Mary Thérèse and Brendan Crowley

18/10/2024: A disappointing stay in The Dunraven for me. I had a lovely memory of a break here a number of years ago. As a result I booked a two night's special, as a treat for my husband, who is recovering from recent surgery. I thought he would benefit from some peace and quiet in warm comfortable surroundings. I was so taken aback when we were shown to our room. A ghastly, lurid electric blue, hard leather sofa and chair assaulted our senses. Gone also were the carpets and curtains and everything that contributed to that lovely memory of my previous stay. The room was the opposite of calm and restful. I had a visceral reaction to the jarring colour and lack of comfortable seating and asked if we could move to another room with soft furnishings. I was told this wasn't possible without paying extra for an upgrade to a junior suite, all the executive rooms were decorated to the same standard. I had to pay the extra to escape the awful decor. Visitors beware, if hard leather electric blue seating is your thing, you'll be in heaven, otherwise you might share my dismay at the "upgrade". In the hotel's favour the bed was magnificent, it was like sleeping on a cloud. The breakfasts too were excellent. A special mention to Alyssia and Anyssia in the dining room, they were so lovely, gentle and professional and helped lift our spirits.

20/11/2024: This was my first time there omg what amazing food highly recommended

14/11/2024: Often go to the Westward Ho, unfortunately the food was not good during this visit. Soup was not blended which did not suit some at the table,some items of the mains were over cooked some under cooked, chips tasted like they were re heated more than once. The service overall was slow but the staff were very pleasant. Disappointing visit

31/10/2024: Disappointed that I was charged separately for the pancakes & coffee when the menu showed the coffee included. Better staff training required.

25/10/2024: We had a great visit here, the food was delicious, and a nice conversation in Irish with a waiter. It's great to have Irish language available in our day to day life!

09/09/2024: Had a lovely time with my son we share a nice afternoon that I still think of. Atmosphere was great . We did not have food but it look amazing.

12/08/2024: On Sunday 4th August we arranged for 60 people to come go to the pub for the day 2 of our wedding celebrations. We had family and friends coming over from Dubai, Frankfurt, New York and England. We had arranged this months in advance. We were told that it was €50 per food platter for 10 people in which we opted for 6 platters worth €300. After 1 hour of being the in the pub the food came out, however, it wasn’t a food platter to feed 10 people but rather small food baskets to feed 2 people. We never received enough food to feed 30 people never mind 60. It was extremely disappointing and it meant guests actually left Bill Chawke’s to get food within the village, all too polite to say there wasn’t enough food. We were also told that there would be live music at the pub which is another reason we picked this venue. We wanted people visiting the country to experience the traditional Irish music. If we knew you were not providing music but a DJ at 9:40pm we wouldn’t have chosen this pub. Another poor experience we had was when some of our guests ordered a cup of tea. The pub said they don’t have tea bags so our guests went to the local shop to buy some. When they came back they asked for hot water and were charged for tea. Thankfully this was resolved at the time and we were given a fair refund. The attitude of some young staff was very disrespectful though. Lastly, when our foreign guests were going to the bar they were getting charged more for alcoholic drinks than the Irish guests, which left a sour taste in our mouth. Not a very good day 2 experience for us as the hosts of our wedding celebrations or the tourists coming to visit. We have since messaged the pub and manager and had no reply which is very disappointing. It is safe to say we will not be returning anytime soon or recommending it to others.

12/10/2024: Recently dined as part of a large group. Food was superb and the service was friendly and efficient

18/09/2024: Very good value for money. Absolutely brilliant server. I wanted to leave a tip she said it was too much and, eventually, took a smaller one. What honesty and integrity!

08/11/2024: I ordered supreme of chicken dish, nice meal €22.50, another vegetable besides the cabbage would have been nice. The portion of chips served in a little silver cup was very disappointing for €4.50. Staff were nice.

28/10/2024: Great service and friendly staff!

18/10/2024: go in the odd friday with lads from work we all think the dinners are amazing!!

26/08/2024: Hidden gem. Fantastic burger, best so far in Ireland. Lucky find.

10/08/2024: I got to enjoy a nice Americano in a mug (not a styrofoam cup, thankfully) for a reasonable price, while on the way to visit the castle. Thanks a lot
