The best restaurantsof irish in Athlone

07/07/2025: After a full weekend of tennis this was a great place to visit and relax and make plans for the next few weekends. It is not far from the tennis club either . Food was great, service was great and they have a good wine list.

13/06/2025: We dined at Thyme this evening (first time). The interior in beautiful shades of green is stunning and so inviting. We had the filet and the halibut dishes. The 4 courses were just perfect. Very creative in both presentation and the various tastes which complement each other. The service was excellent with very knowledgeable and friendly staff!!!

16/07/2025: Went for my 30th birthday meal here, they brought out a brownie and sang the happy birthday song, really lovely night. Food was perfectly cooked and service was terrific 👌 thankyou all very very much

03/07/2025: We had a very delicious dinner at the Riverview Bistro. It’s very conveniently located a few doors down from Sean’s Bar in Athlone. Very nicely decorated inside and a menu with a variety of items. Also kid friendly

29/06/2025: Looked great walking in and really busy. Food was average at best though which was disappointing considering the prices.

15/06/2025: First time at Left Bank Bistro. Had lunch here with the family. On the booking I had indicated we were celebrating a birthday but there was no effort made about that. We asked about gluten free options. One waitress told us spring rolls were gluten free but then when ordering another waiter said they were not and actually provided us with the allergen menu. The only gluten free starter was a salad. I was let down by the lack of coeliac friendly dishes on the menu. The restaurant gets quite loud when busy. There are no soft furnishings to absorb the sound, which I'd recommend adding cushions to chairs. We asked if one of the waiters could take a photo of the group and we felt very much like they couldn't get us out the door fast enough. Definitely lacking the personable and welcoming touch I'd expect from any restaurant. I'm unlikely to return soon due to my experience.

05/07/2025: Great food here. Love the steak sandwich.

01/07/2025: Lovely food would highly recommend
