Woodfire
Westport
21/09/2026: Food okay. I picked a burger which didn't meet my expectations, the pizza's seemed very tasty, though.
We were lucky to immediately get a table, but many people came in and made arrangements to be called when a table were to become available. We were seated close to the door, but it felt like there was a permanent line to the cash register, giving it a bit of a factory feeling... I expected more for their pricing.
16/09/2026: Incredible wood fired pizza, fun lively service with great local beer recommendations for a tourist. Goat cheese salad was out of this world as well. Price is slightly higher but the quality is also high as well. You get what you pay for here and it’s worth paying for the quality you get. Would recommend to anybody looking to share some slices on a rainy night.
P.S. music choices are 10/10 this place is a vibe.

House of plates

11/10/2026: Went with some friends for the first time. Lovely restaurant with friendly staff and great menu. From start to finish the food was amazing. They offer 2 courses for 55 euro and 3 courses for 65 euro. Never felt rushed to order or leave. Recommend making a reservation you wont regret it.
11/10/2026: One of the best restaurants I've ever eaten at. Truly fantastic food, wonderful service, and a lovely atmosphere. I was thrilled.

Bar One
Castlebar legal
02/10/2026: I had wings in BarOne 8 years ago when passing through, I've been meaning to get back since, today I made it back and it didn't disappoint. I will definitely make it my business to get back soon for a full meal. 5* food, service & atmosphere
28/09/2026: Having recently moved to the area, we chose Bar One for Saturday evening meal out for two. We were not disappointed.
We generally like to eat a little later and the place was hopping when we got there. A well selected menu and a large list of specials gave us much to contemplate. The winelist was well chosen and pricing was not crazy. When you can select a good wine without a ridiculous mark up, you are happy to pay for it.
I was tempted by one special, the Hampshire Bacon chop. I figured if there is a good chef here, it will be more than just bacon and cabbage. It was! Cabbage cooked quickly is wonderful and the oven finish on the chop was meltingly delicious, with a cider sauce on the side. My wife had the tempura hake and was equally impressed. We somehow also squeezed in dessert and a digestif but were well satisfied. Staff were always attentive and never overbearing. Service was well paced for a nice night out.
We noticed that as people left and food service finished, the bar/bistro was a little quieter, they should advertise it better as a bar after meals since the atmosphere and drinks selection would tempt me even when not out for a meal.
10/10 - very happy and we will be back regularly!

05/09/2026: A gem! Jimmy is great and they made us feel most welcome. The food is absolutely delicious and the atmosphere is lovely. We would come back in a heartbeat!
04/09/2026: This is a little jewel that will surprise you palette with every mouthful!
We were in Westport for the afternoon and i had remembered looking at this venue when voila ! We were standing in front of it and said lets see if they have a table..and by amazing chance the fitted us in.
Relaxed atmosphere with super staff and a must go to place if you are within 50km it will be worth the drive in fact its worth a one night stay for the experience.
Chapeau chef ! Simple ingredients cooked with passion.
Thank you and look forward to our revisit
Make sure you book ahead.

20/09/2026: Lovely spacious cafe with good coffee and nice sandwiches. If you're looking for a book they also have a good selection of second hand books where you can take one donate to their charity. Toilets were also very clean. Would recommend stopping for a coffee or bite to eat.

The Junction
Ballina
10/10/2026: We ordered Bacon, Liver, Onions, Peas, Mash and Gravy.
We got Bacon, Liver, Carrots, Swede (Turnip) and, eventually, Mash.
Everything was lovely except the overcooked and leathery liver.
01/10/2026: *4 stars – almost everything is perfect here!*
We had a truly wonderful stay. The service is simply outstanding – very friendly, attentive, and quick without being intrusive. You immediately feel welcome and well taken care of.
The food was fantastic: The fish and chips were incredibly delicious, crispy on the outside, moist on the inside, served with fresh fries and a tasty coleslaw. Highly recommended!
The coffee was also excellent. I had an Americano, which was really strong and aromatic, exactly how I like it and not watered down like so often elsewhere.
But the absolute highlight was dessert: The apple pie with vanilla sauce and vanilla ice cream was incredibly delicious! Warm, moist, not too sweet, and simply divine in combination with the ice cream.
The atmosphere is cozy, clean, and inviting. The only slight drawback is that it can get a bit noisy during peak hours. Otherwise, the value for money is excellent. We will definitely be back!

The West
Westport
16/09/2026: Delicious food, highly recommended! However, it's very popular, so you might have to wait for a table.
06/09/2026: Went on a work end of summer day out, had the West booked for a party of 12.
Seats were reserved for us, staff were attentive & friendly. The food was fantastic, everyone’s dish was lovely and everyone was delighted with their choices which is rare in a group of 12. The Lamb Shank was superb, as was the chowder, steak, beef, lasagne, bacon & cabbage, curry. Such a choice. The desserts were equally as good. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and filling our bellies. We will be back 👏👏

Val's Bar & Bistro
Ballyhaunis
14/09/2026: Such a shame. Some good some bad. Popped in on way back to airport. Lovely greeting and got a group of us a table of 4. Great service. Nice starters, but mash potatoes I’ve never experienced before like eating dry powdered smash. Lacking in gravy. And veg straight out of a people home. Lovely drinks. And nice atmosphere let down by kitchen.
19/08/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An excellent experience at Val's Bar & Bistro!
Without a doubt, a restaurant worth visiting in Ballyhaunis. Very tasty food, well-prepared and with generous portions. Everything served with good presentation and that welcoming atmosphere typical of a good Irish pub.
The service was excellent: friendly, attentive and professional staff, always available to help. The concern for providing a good experience to visitors is noticeable.
The atmosphere is very pleasant and relaxed, perfect for a family meal or a meal with friends.
It was a very positive experience and, without a doubt, a restaurant I recommend and will return to. 👌🇮🇪
5 stars without hesitation! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

13/08/2026: Brilliant spot with wonderful staff they did not take card the night I was there but the bank machine was a 2 minute walk away.
It was absolutely packed the night I was there on the mayo all Ireland win.
But despite the pressure and sheer number of people demanding their attention for a drink all the staff were so polite and efficient.
