Cronin's Sheebeen
Westport
01/01/2026: Just had a delightful meal in the Sheebeen. Lovely food, nice atmosphere in a warm and pleasant bar. First class all round.
30/12/2025: We go here every year, this year it wasnt as good as previous times. Chicken has a 20 min wait - which is completely fine, but the potatoes served (gratin) were lukewarm at best. Streak came out cold, had to hand back, for nearly 40e a steak youd expect better. Didnt have dessert, didnt want to be disappointed further.
Just on the reply - we actually had a booking for 8pm, we did come early approx 735ish and we told staff that we didnt mind waiting. We specifically booked the snugg area, which since we were early had to be setup. But again we told staff that we were early and didnt mind waiting. We were facilitated which we thanked the staff for.

Excellent staff; friendly & helpful.
Our room was lovely, overlooking the main street which was very quiet overnight. We enjoyed Sunday lunch & breakfast the following morning; both of which were really good.

Clock Tavern
Westport
01/12/2025: Great pub. Guiness 0.0 and great trad players.
13/08/2025: Didn’t eat here, but wouldn’t go back for drinks. Bartenders were not friendly at all and refused to make mixed drinks for Americans, but then made them for their friends who ordered right after. One acted as if he didn’t know what Tito’s vodka was. They had great live music and a lively crowd, but a very unwelcoming bunch. Americans should skip this spot and spend their money elsewhere. One of the few pubs the group had anything negative to say about.

Ice House Hotel
Ballina
31/01/2026: 10/10 – Declan absolutely made our night. From the moment we arrived, he went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. His energy, professionalism, and genuine warmth were unmatched. He wasn’t just great at his job — he was the highlight of our entire stay. The hotel is lucky to have him, and we’ll be back largely because of him!
30/01/2026: Way over expensive for what it is
Better value at proper spa hotels

George V
23/07/2025: El mejor regalo que me he hecho fue una cena en solitario en George V. El equipo es acogedor y atractivo. Aprendà sobre vinos de Paul Fogerty, sumiller jefe. Recibà sugerencias encantadoras en el menú de Andrea, mi servidor. El ritmo era apropiado para saborear cada bocado de comida de la finca ricotta al inicio del suflé de frambuesa (vale la pena el tiempo para prepararlo) como el final de una comida maravillosa. IT fue una experiencia que realmente fue un punto culminante para mi estancia en The Lodge at Ashford Castle.
03/07/2025: Cenamos con otra pareja. La cena es un acontecimiento. El personal de servicio fue excepcional. La comida es artĂstica, lo que significa que las porciones son Ăşnicas y pequeñas. Espere gastar mucho. TambiĂ©n desayunamos en este restaurante que estaba bastante bien y las raciones eran mejores.

Bar Square
Ballina
24/01/2026: Lovely menu and lovely fresh food ,great portions too and a lovely cosy fire 🔥 too.
30/12/2025: 30/12/25 €11 for a normal size CBLT sandwich that took 45mins to come and had no T in it and no Mayo on it. Side salad that came with it was couple rocket leaves, pinch of shredded carrots and red cabbage. Wasn't asked if wanted dessert or any extra coffees, asked to move to bar after we paid when we were stood saying our goodbyes because we were "standing in the middle of the floor in the way" (wasn't busy and no one was trying to get passed us.) there are more subtle ways to get people to move on if you want. Would have bought more food/dessert/coffees if it had been suggested to us. No oat milk options either.

Ridgepool Restaurant
Ballina
10/01/2026: Oct 2025
We stayed at this hotel while holding a memorial for my beloved sister, and I truly cannot put into words how much comfort and kindness we received during such a painful time. The hotel’s central location was perfect, and the rooms were always warm, cozy, and immaculately clean—exactly what we needed.
Breakfast each morning was excellent, with many delicious options offered daily, and the dining staff were incredibly attentive and accommodating to my food allergies, which meant so much to me.
We have stayed here many times over the years and always loved it, but this visit was exceptional. The compassion shown to us will never be forgotten. The hotel manager, Edel, was professional, kind, and genuinely compassionate, going above and beyond to support us on short notice. Her leadership truly shows in her amazing staff—Chloe was wonderful,, kind and professional maureen the server had outstanding service accommodating all of us especially with food allergies
This hotel will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We are deeply grateful to everyone who made a very difficult time a little easier.
18/12/2025: Went there for lunch. Lovely meal, good portions and good service
Steak sandwich is a good recommendation

29/07/2025: We had such a lovely evening here with old friends. The food was spectacular. My friends all had seafood which was incredibly fresh and delicious, while I opted for what was the best pizza I have ever had outside of Italy! Could not recommend highly enough.
