The best restaurants in Kerry

15/06/2026: Vendrick’s is an awesome spot!! Welcoming & chill vibe, friendly & attentive service (Thank You Angie & Emma), wonderful wine list, and a delicious menu. Everything is masterfully prepared, but our favorite bites are their Irish Cheese Board, and their Prawns Pil Pil

09/06/2026: Great balance of Irish cuisine and fine dining

04/06/2026: The ordering process via WA is simple, the admin will immediately direct you without causing any confusion.

23/05/2026: Was recommended to me by a local & it was really good. But bring your appetite it's not only good the portions are manly.

09/07/2026: Food was amazing staff were so nice great experience will defo be back.

29/06/2026: Warm welcome. Attentive service. Tables nicely spaced. Excellent choice of dishes with fresh and full flavours. Can have main or couple small plates. Would work to have 3/4 small plates between you plus sides/dessert.

14/06/2026: Wonderful classic Irish pub! Was there on a tour and they did a great job with food, beverage and service.

13/06/2026: A fantastic location. My conclusion after a four-week stay in Ireland: the best pub of all. We were there on May 28, 2026, and a trio with guitar, violin, and flute was playing. For me, the concert was the best thing I heard during those four weeks. I'll probably never understand why some people feel the need to sit right next to the musicians to chat during musical performances.

25/07/2026: Super fun atmosphere. Staff dances to the music and handed out samples. Ice cream was yummy. Tried the lemon curd and honeycomb and both were great.

24/07/2026: After reading such good review I just think my expectations were too high. Staff was incredible!! Let us sample everything. Very helpful. Ice cream was light and fresh just not as flavorful as I was imagining. Still good!

03/07/2026: Super friendly staff, fantastic ice cream! You absolutely have to try it!

26/06/2026: Delicious ice cream. Great staff.

19/07/2026: Really lovely meal here. The staff were fantastic so good with kids and didnt have to ask for kids meals before adults etc they just knew instinctively. The food was delicious and highly recommend the lamb boxty.

17/07/2026: Charming restaurant and delightful meal. My husband and I tried two different boxtys, the lamb and the chicken, and we enjoyed them both. We also had the soup of the day, which I think was a parsnip soup. The flavor was somehow delicate and robust at the same time, well seasoned, and quite delicious. While all of the food was quite good, I especially enjoyed the bread basket! The brown bread with walnuts was so yummy with some butter, I couldn't stop eating it. I'd recommend visiting this restaurant while in Killarney.

10/07/2026: Fantastic place and the most freshest seafood

08/07/2026: The food was amazing, staff were very friendly and service was very good

05/07/2026: I'm afraid I can't give this a 👍. Very much overpriced for the quality and quantity that you get. The sea bass was absolutely tiny, not well presented on a plate that was far too big for the starter portion size of what I got. You have to add your potatoes/chips on top so Very poor for €27 + €5. The €10 portion of Tiramsui was 2 inch x 2 inch square. Fish and chips, €23, just thrown on the plate, no finesse, with a measly looking garnish of salad. There are much much better options out there than this place.

01/07/2026: Amazing food, friendly Service!

27/06/2026: Fish bones in chowder the place is trying to win an award for….. interesting. Service was awful. Waited almost an hour and 50 minutes and never got our food. Blamed everything on the chef when clearly it was front of house mistake. Go somewhere else.

17/06/2026: I had the oyrsters with the mignoette sauce. It's was blasphemously good, I can see why she'll fish are in the Bible as a sin, because...god dayum!!!

01/07/2026: This was the best meal myself and my partner have ever had, and we live in Australia. It was phenomenal. Even down to the olives, beautiful. Could not recommend more. The only 'fault' i have is serving chips and mash with a steak, i would have rathered one or the other and a portion of veg. A good complaint albeit!!!

28/06/2026: We walked in without a reservation and were very lucky to get a table straight away without having to wait. We ordered four freshly shucked oysters, one grilled oyster, and the spicy seafood linguine. The sauce for the linguine was incredibly rich and full of seafood flavor—it was so good that after finishing the pasta, I asked for a couple of slices of bread just to soak up every last bit of the sauce. The seafood linguine was definitely the highlight of the meal for me. All of the seafood tasted exceptionally fresh, and the portion was quite generous. It would easily be enough for two people to share if you're ordering a few other dishes as well.

03/07/2026: The food was amazing and the service was amazing. Would definitely recommend

03/07/2026: The food was amazing and they are very nice people working there. Definitely would recommend

15/06/2026: Dogs aren't allowed in the inside bar but they have a good sized beer garden at the back (accessible from the street behind) which is dog friendly. And if you're solo with dogs - as I was - you can order and pay from your table

14/06/2026: We were absolutely thrilled! The burgers were simply amazing – juicy, fresh, and incredibly tasty. The service was also excellent: very friendly and attentive, and we immediately felt welcome. To top it all off, we had a dessert that was equally superb and perfectly rounded off our visit. We'll definitely be back and highly recommend this restaurant! 😊🍔🍰

22/07/2026: Absolutely incredible, would recommend

22/07/2026: We’ve ordered two pastas. They have very delicious slightly spicy rigatoni arrabiatta with tasty local Cronins cider.

27/05/2026: Hopefully it's sunny in waterville when you arrive as its a beautiful place and looks stunning on a nice day. The villa is so welcoming, not just for your stay but for food and drink. The atmosphere 👌. Food is reasonably priced and is amazing. And make sure your there for the weekend as the band on a Saturday night was perfect

23/05/2026: Located well on the main drag. Excellent staff
