The best restaurants in Kerry

13/10/2026: We had a wonderful experience at Piccolo Pizza in Killarney! The food was delicious (honestly we have not had a pizza that good, in a while!) the wine was excellent, and the service was outstanding from start to finish. It was an overall great experience. It is a small (cozy) ;) dining area however it's very well decorated, creating a very welcoming atmosphere. We really couldn’t have asked for a better meal. If you’re visiting Killarney, and looking for something other than a traditional Irish meal, do yourself a favor and stop by Piccolo. A definite 5 stars — we’d happily go back!

10/10/2026: What a fun pizzeria plus the pizza it’s off was phenomenal. Fast service, good tasting food. You truly can’t ask for more.

23/10/2026: This is Ireland in a cone. I sampled so many flavors without any pushback. The staff was so very kind and generous. Please don’t pass on the brown bread ice cream ice cream. It’s so perfectly sweet and savory! All the flavors pack flavor punch!!! Yummmmmm

23/10/2026: Flavors are delightful as were the staff!!

21/08/2026: Passing through Castleisland stopped at Pats , great food , great service, great menu

17/08/2026: Great staff lovely food and massive portions

09/10/2026: What a great hidden gem of a place. I hate to share this as it was so amazing but have to because it was so amazingly great! Great atmosphere, great service, great food and great company. We cannot wait to come back to enjoy such amazing food again!

08/10/2026: My husband has been on a self-appointed, insta influencer inspired- fish and chips tour of Ireland and he has officially declared this was the best!!!!! But seriously- SO good. Added bonus, atmosphere and people were so so lovely. Will not disappoint, give it a try! 5 stars, no notes!

26/10/2026: Loved the apple and cinnamon cake

22/10/2026: My partner and I had the pleasure of having dinner at Helen's Bar yesterday, and we had a great experience! The owner is lovely, and the staff are very friendly too. The food was good and filling, with very reasonable prices. Everything is locally sourced, which is always an added bonus! The atmosphere was great as well. Highly recommend!

11/10/2026: On Thursday nights you can expect live entertainment in the bar. A fiddle, a squeeze box, a guitar, the music slowly builds through the evening, as does the atmosphere and before you go home there will be singing too. We ate, I had duck, John had scampi pulled that morning from Dingle Bay. Both were great but the duck was all meat (a common fault in these parts) and short on veg...for many a good fault but I love my vegetables and salad. The service, was good and the surroundings attractive.

08/10/2026: A wonderful place, and the gentleman who served us lunch today was incredibly kind and welcoming. Such a lovely experience!😉

18/10/2026: This place is amazing. I’ve never had a Shepards pie that I’ve loved until I came to Cronin’s. Highly recommend. My husband got the sirloin with onions and mushrooms. He is celiac and they were very accommodating. Even brought gf bread out for him. He loved his meal as well.

17/10/2026: While exploring as much of Ireland as we possibly could, this was the only restaurant we actually went back to for a second night. It is that good.

21/06/2026: To David and The staff at Davitts Guesthouse Kenmare. Myself And my friend stayed for the weekend at Davitts for my best friends Wedding. And from start to finish, we had the most welcoming and friendliest experience. The room was so comfortable and spacious and the breakfast was such a lovely homemade start to our day. We had the pleasure of meeting with David the owner. Such a gentleman. He kindly drove us to Kilarney Train Station to make sure we got the train home safe. We would highly recommend Davitts Guesthouse Kenmare for your Next Stay and ours. Thank You for Everything and we will return soon to the Kingdom 🌟 ☘️ Jennifer Duggan And Kay Moore

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

18/10/2026: Bricin's high rating is well deserved. Super friendly and efficient staff and cosy characterful setting. The owner? got a quick history out of us on the way to the table, then introduced us to a couple of locals dining nearby. We quickly made a connection and had a wonderful chat during dinner. My only criticism is the food comes out a little too quick, and all together. I don't know if it's an Ireland thing, or we've just been a little unlucky. Australians like a gap between starters and mains, and if you're smart you'll want to drag out your dinner here at this wonderful restaurant. The Boxty was fantastic. If we lived close by this place would be a regular. 5 plus stars.

18/10/2026: This was a cute place and the food was decent. I got the chicken Boxty and it was good! I don’t think I would get it again but it was good for what it was. My husband got the Hake and said that it didn’t have much flavor. It was pretty loud in the large room we were seated in. I wish we could have been seated in the other half of the restaurant that seemed quieter.

14/09/2026: I can't express how perfect our dinner was here. It was my mom's 65th birthday, and when I made a reservation I asked for a good table and they put us right next to the window. They also took note it was her birthday and came out with dessert and a candle. The service from Janet was 100/10. The food was even better! We shared oysters, the bread for the table was amazing and we each had a fish dish that was superb. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

21/08/2026: We booked a table of 9 with a child. The staff were amazing and the food was THE best we had over the course of our entire trip from Dublin, Doolin, and Dingle. It was cozy, bright and felt like we were eating dinner in a close relatives home. Patricia and Janet were lovely and I recommend EVERYONE visiting Dingle book a table there - also shoutout to Caitlin for her lovely service.

04/11/2026: One of our favorite Restaurants in Ireland for excellent Seafood. Service is very friendly. Reservation in advance is recommended!

23/10/2026: Small plates to share were excellent Service was kind, fast and friendly Our favorites were mackerel pate with olive tapenade and tomato butter, oysters, lump crab, and beef with black pudding. Everything was expertly prepared. It’s upscale but not snooty!

16/08/2026: Over a thousand different whiskeys from around the world, lovely staff, great ambiance, decent prices. If I’m ever back in Killarney I’m visiting for sure

15/08/2026: Really fund cocktail bar. Food was great and the selection of old-fashioneds was super interesting. Would totally go back again and again.

04/11/2026: Best Ice Creams from Ireland with a great choice of different Flavours

04/11/2026: A must visit place in Dingle. After breakfast, lunch or dinner, then treat yourself to some beautiful flavoured ice-cream. All sorts to choose from. Great flavor and Great service too. With a smile 😃.
