The best restaurants in Kerry

09/07/2024: Really surprised at how wonderful the food and service was here. As other people have said don’t judge a book by its cover! The ladies who waited on us were so good. The best waitresses we’ve ever encountered. The lamb was perfect. The veg still had bite. The lasagne was al dente and the deserts…oh my days! So good and we got a free taster of the lemon meringue too! Simply the best food we’ve had in Ireland so far!

04/07/2024: Very nice, small restaurant, lovingly decorated, with good food. We were passing through but would like to come back. 😊

16/07/2024: Very good Italian food ! We had pasta with grilled salmon, cream and cheese, excellent ! Home made tiramisu was amazing.

13/07/2024: Nice place, really good pizza 🍕 Hop in for a treat, you won't regret it.

30/06/2024: Exceptional food and brilliant service. Always rammed full so book in advance or grab a spot at the bar. I'm surprised this place doesn't have a Bib Gourmand. If any of the Michelin gang are reading this! Best place to eat in Kerry, in my experience.

28/06/2024: Das Essen, der Service, das Ambiente, für mich unvergleichbar und immer wieder eine Reise nach Kenmare wert. Der Service ist seit meinem Besuch vom letzten Jahr personell noch sehr ähnlich, was ich als sehr gutes Zeichen werte. Das Essen ausgesprochen gut und mit Liebe angerichtet. Immer wieder gerne. Herzlichen Dank für dieses tolle Ess-Erlebnis.

06/07/2024: Sweet cozy shop with staggering service and staff. Had my breakfast and coffee and it was amazing 👌🏻👌🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thank you so much for the brilliant experience

30/06/2024: Best coffee in town and staff are amazing and he also sells beans to take home for the best blends at home, too can't be beat for coffee highly recommended

02/07/2024: Great place to eat and have a nice time right near the city center

22/06/2024: Stopped in for cocktails and dessert, what a delight! Sticky Toffee Pudding and Banoffee Pie was heavenly.

10/07/2024: Wish I could give 6 stars. Damn best pizza I've ever had (not traditional pizza, but that's what makes it good). The beer is great, obviously, and the service outstanding.

28/06/2024: Awesome staff, tasty beer and pizza. Great vibes!

22/07/2024: Loved the hotel. Spacious relaxing rooms. Outstanding customer service. Fantastic food!

09/07/2024: I’ve been around the world and can hands down say that this is one of my top 5 hotels, and in the running for number 1. The service is impeccable. The breakfast service is probably the best I’ve ever had for sit down, group service. It’s unbelievable. And the rooms we had were phenomenal. Classic rooms with modern bathrooms. I can’t say enough about this hotel.

17/07/2024: Best restaurant in town!!! I ordered the Singapore Fried rice and woooow!!! Amazing flavours,fresh, perfectly spiced!!

08/07/2024: Amazing food, staff and facilities

28/06/2024: Wow!!! This restaurant is phenomenal!!! The food is simply delicious. Their boxty is a MUST TRY. The early bird menu is from 6-6:45 and you can get a 2 course meal for 29 euro and a 3 course meal for 32 euro. It’s an amazing deal for such delicious food. Our server was great and the food came quickly but was so fresh! Their ice cream at the end with butterscotch was beyond incredible. The owner came up to us and was so friendly and ended up taking our photo and talking about how the restaurant came to be. Go here if you’re in Killarney- you won’t regret it! Email to book, it’s so simple!

28/06/2024: Don’t sleep on Bricin. The fact that it’s slightly out of the way of the main drag is probably what will get you a table for six in the middle of the dinner rush without a reservation. Service was exceptional, staff is kind and accommodating. Kid friendly! Everyone enjoyed their meals - I got the filet (omg Irish beef is so good), two folks got the curry boxty, scallops and spring rolls (YUM) for apps, someone else got the sirloin, and someone got pan seared hake. Everyone was extremely happy. Wine was cold and crisp. 10/10 - definitely go to Bricin!

05/07/2024: This spot is great when there are no people but as soon as you get them swarming in the mistakes pop out. When it is not crowded I love it. But today it was weird, orded to eat in, got the sandwich in a bag (I know it is nothing), then ordered a cup of coffee and could not see it coming even after finishing the sandwich. Another annoying thing is that they ask you to wait outside at the hatch to get your order when there are too many people, if I eat in it makes no sense for me to stand at the hatch instead of taking a seat. The food is great though.

02/07/2024: Very good sausage rolls and excellent relish for a picnic

15/07/2024: Excellent. Delicious food and great service. A well run restaurant in a good location.

14/07/2024: Relaxed unassuming exterior, with a comfortable and intimate interior. Wonderful aromas followed by exquisite food. the menu made fresh daily based upon the fresh catch. It one of the best meals we’ve ever had. Just get the turbot.

15/06/2024: Absolutely delicious food and excellent friendly service. Good value for money. Would highly recommend.

14/06/2024: Overall the experience at this restaurant was quite good; however, there are things that can be definitely improved. Firstly, the menu provided does not match the food you actually get in some instances. In my case, I ordered the salmon main which, on both the physical and online menu, it is indicated to come with asparagus, even though the one I got came with broccoli. Also, the online menu shows that there are side dishes that can be ordered, from which I would have picked the sautéed mushrooms, but when asked to the server for it, she was unsure about having any side dishes and eventually suggested and brought boiled vegetables. Finally, I ordered a raspberry tartlet as dessert which had a good taste but a completely wrong consistency, with the pastry being very soggy.

11/07/2024: Very good lunch. Food and service were top notch.

04/07/2024: Had Dinner at Davitt's. Chickenburger with fries. Awesome! Very good service and also a fine Pale Ale. Should give it a go when in Kenmare! 🔥

01/07/2024: Hardware / Pub Great pint Full of locals and tourists - very enjoyable night

24/06/2024: Brilliant pub, great staff, and a lovely pint!

12/07/2024: A Crying Shame Lire Cafe was always my 1st stop whem on a day trip to Killarney, serving proper coffee with comfortable seating and good vibes staff. However, I just felt so ripped off after my last visit when charged €4.60 for a standard 2-shot oat milk flat white in a small cup. It was €0.80 for a few ounces of oat milk. Now mind you, I've already paid for cow's milk and the labour of steaming. This is an extra fee exploiting those having lactose intolerance and/or some sense of Climate Conscience Oatmik is not that dear even what I pay at retail prices. God knows, conventional field grown coffee (as opposed to organic shade coffee) is highly carbon intensive on this own and a massive source of tropical deforestation. Even that Seattle based corporate bohemith with the green logo woke up and stopped charging for plant based milk! Not sure what else to say except it's a crying shame and my last visit there unless they change this policy.

10/07/2024: Very tasty espresso and the best apple pie I ever tried 😊
