The best restaurantsof irish in Ballina

19/05/2025: Really excellent food, service and atmosphere; it's rare that you can say all three things about a place - first time there and definitely a go- to in future, you know you're in good hands. Chef lets the ingredients shine and the service is warm, professional and unfussy. They were busy despite it being a Monday night and there was no fluster. I ordered the smoked salmon and crab starter because I love Clarks salmon but it was the chef's beautiful treatment of the crab that shone. I was with a difficult foodie crowd and everyone was more than happy. Sirloin steak, fish pie, duck two ways, sea bass, apple crumble and Eton mess all get a big thumbs up. It's clean, attractive, comfortable and welcoming inside, no waiting for anything, it's nice when the background sound isn't music but happy, relaxed customers talking and laughing. These guys know what they're doing

20/05/2025: Great welcome, accommodation, food and atmosphere. The rooms were spacious well appointed and modern. We met the owner who oversaw our stay, a true gentleman.

15/05/2025: Very good cocktail guys!! Yaasss

14/05/2025: Having visited a few times in the past, we were more than happy to take our visitors here. Mistake! Embarrassing! One of the Sunday lunch specials, Cod & Chips was not great. Undercooked fish, raw and "wet" batter. No crunch, just slop. This is supposed to be the star of the show...we ordered three of these and they were all similarly miserable. (Chips were great.) The cherry on the top was the staffs' response when notified. "We will advise the kitchen accordingly." When paying the bill, we again mentioned the issue with the fish/batter and were told that "the kitchen is addressing the matter." Great for the next customer, not so great for us!!

27/04/2025: We just got our Full Irish there. What a lovely place , service top class 👌,and tasty food. Highly recommended 👍

24/04/2025: Food was great, I asked for a come and was flat, I asked to get water and it was fine, but when I went to pay they charged me for a coke that I didn't drink, when I questioned the waiter said that is how we do things here. Very unprofessional you need to pay. Not happy
