The best restaurantsof irish in Dungarvan

29/11/2025: Went to Shamrock for breakfast and lunch two days in a row because it’s that good. Great portion sizes, good value, friendly owners, and the fish and chips are excellent, the fish is so fresh. I’ll definitely be making a return!

21/11/2025: Without question, the Shamrock has the best breakfast/fry up in Dungarvan and an excellent menu overall. The staff are always absolutely lovely and the atmosphere is always comfortable and welcoming. On many a day, a chat with a few locals is often likely and it's always a pleasure. Excellent food, lovely place and one of the nicest places to spend some time. A must for anyone passing through and a lovely treat if you're local.

01/01/2026: Very disappointed given an expired bottle of beer. Served by man who was not very happy about us having just a drink saying it was not done anymore but we didn’t want to eat so just got money back and once my husband finished his pint we went & had drinks in the anchor bar close by which was very welcoming.

31/12/2025: Dropped into The Local for some food and was not disappointed - good food - really good service and stayed for the music - fabulous singer backed by a really excellent group of musicians - good pints too! I would highly recommend

05/10/2025: Top notch. Beautiful breckfast. So fast. Staff lovely. Always eat here. 10 out of 10.....

03/09/2025: A gem of a cafe, food and service excellent. Not one to be missed.

26/10/2025: For years it was best fish and chips. I always think about this as reward after trip. Today it was so under average… fish was super greasy and burger was one of the worst I ever eaten… would prefer McDonald cheese burger… Not sure if staff changed, bad day or some cost cutting but definitely not worth visit. Will give it one more try in few months to check if it’s back to glory but doubt it…

22/10/2025: Always amazing, best scampi and chips and PEAS and tartar sauce in Ireland . Lovely staff , great service . Fresh tasty food

26/10/2025: Great tea and pastries and the staff is nice, 100% recommend the place

04/10/2025: Decent food all round. The waiters are also very friendly and attentive. Food a little slow to come but all in all would recommend for a bite.

23/11/2025: A mixed platter. We stayed at The Tannery for two nights. We were attracted by the promise of excellent food, so booked in to eat on both evenings. Or at least we thought we had, as it soon became apparent that they had lost our dinner bookings. To the full credit of the staff they did rectify this quite quickly. The room was great but the sound proofing was shockingly poor. The couple next door would be embarrassed if they knew just how much we now know about them. On the first night the food was very good and our waitress was a gem. Not so on the second evening. We both reordered the crab brulee,as we had so enjoyed it the night before. Big mistake, it was curdled and lacking crab. The mains were an even bigger disappointment as they were totally lacking in flavour, to the point I began to question if I could have covid. When the young waiter came to clear the plates, asked if everything was OK, I said, actually, both mains were terribly bland, to which he looked at my empty plate and rolled his eyes. Not an acceptable response. We came for fine dining,this was mediocre comfort food and oh so disappointing. Has The Tannery become too complacent ? Needless to say, no one followed up on my comment to the young waiter, either that evening, or the next morning.

14/09/2025: Just back from a lovely 2 night stay in the townhouse. The bedroom was lovely. The dinner was a really lovely treat, staff very nice and service was excellent. Breakfast was beautiful. Only 1 issue- you check in at the restaurant and the townhouse is accross the road from it. I think that might be useful to have on the website and also limited parking close to the townhouse. Dungarven a lovely place to visit with lots of pubs and great food choices. The tannery is very central. Visit Merrys & Nagles for drinks. Dun for pastries and Isabelles place for quirky shopping. All within a few mins walk of the tannery.
