The best restaurants in Kerry

18/08/2026: We had a wonderful experience at the Lobster in Waterville

17/08/2026: Excellent pub, good dinner, friendly staff

11/08/2026: Really nice pizza but not a whole lot else on the menu. Also opens in the morning serving scones & coffee plus other baked goods as they come out of the oven. The bread looked good but didn't get to sample it. No discount for take-away pizzas so you may as well sit down & eat it there. See pic for a recent takeaway, its was ok but could have used a little more topping I think. Compare to the picture on their website where it looks totally different. Staff are friendly but do some funny things. I was laughing as I watched one person wipe down a table, wiping the crumbs etc onto the floor & the chairs! Updated review just to say watch out for the new wine corkage charge they've introduced on their own wine! We used to get a bottle with a pizza there but not anymore as the wine prices have gone up & there is an additional €10 charge on every bottle. Get a take-away instead & save €20 by buying a bottle of wine at the local garage. Update #2, pizzas have dramitically shrunk in size :( Still very good but something to be aware of.

07/08/2026: The positives: a good first impression of the place, a nice pizza oven, and a lively atmosphere. The pizza was just okay considering the price (€18). The negatives: the tapas menu looked appetizing on paper. We ordered "sweet potato with feta and mozzarella" for €12, which resulted in a few pieces of cooked potato in a grainy, overly salty sauce. The portion was far too small for the price. The service was disorganized. It was unclear who was doing what, or whether customers were supposed to serve themselves. A glass of Sauvignon Blanc was €9. The bill was as steep as the meal: €39 for a starter, a pizza, and a glass of wine.

09/07/2026: 2.50 scone with beautiful jam. They'll reheat if you like also. Highly recommend as opposed to the alternative in town

25/05/2026: Spotlessly clean, beautifully appointed rooms with a spectacular view of the Atlantic and wonderfully friendly, helpful and efficient staff. 10 out of 10.

02/08/2026: Very good place Perfect service, very kind and joyfull. Very good food, braised beef is excellent.

01/08/2026: Had Lunch here on Thursday last very good food and fabulous staff

10/06/2026: The young staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Felt very safe as a solo-traveler. Food was fantastic! Restaurant was lovely and the view from the breakfast room into the garden was a beautiful way to start the day.

29/05/2026: Lovely service with amazing breakfast. Right beside Glenbeigh village with access to walks and Rossbeigh beach close by. Would recommend to anyone staying in the area. Rooms were comfortable and clean

04/09/2026: Sun came out - we sat in their back yard and had the best lunch of our trip. Food was fresh, atmosphere was on point, and service was ultra friendly and fun with our small family.

19/08/2026: Best pub in the Wesht, absolutely love coming here!!

25/08/2026: This was some of the BEST Italian I’ve had (even better than some places we’ve been to in Italy)! We were seated right away without reservations and were dressed in casual wear even though this was a nicer restaurant. The service was amazing and the food/drinks were served so quickly. We had the spinach & ricotta ravioli, penne arrabbiatta, & chocolate fudge cake with vanilla ice cream. I could have eaten the arrabbiata sauce by itself it was so delicious. The chocolate cake was so light and the icing was divine. We each had the house red wine (montepulciano) & a Bailey’s coffee. Even the drinks were perfection. We were just passing through on our way to Dingle and stopped for dinner. We stumbled upon this cute little restaurant because the pizza place we were going to go to ended up being closed & I’m so glad that we did. They had an indoor/outdoor patio area that was so nice to sit in plus 2 dining seating areas and a back bar area. If you are visiting Tralee or passing through, this restaurant is a MUST!!

07/08/2026: Everything perfect, made fresh to order!

17/08/2026: Love everything here and will go back again! - Seafood: so fresh and so tasty - Staff: attentive, friendly and efficient - Speed: when we arrived, the restaurant was packed but we got to order straight away after finished reading the menu and shortly the starters were served. - Music: on the day we went, the band was so good. Mix of Irish and 90' songs - guess was for the party. ** Be advised to book a table before going in especially in summer (we went twice both weekend and weekday, full house).

17/08/2026: Excellent location, wonderful view. Unfortunately, the two main courses were very disappointing. The waitresses were friendly and took care of everything immediately: First, the overcooked, hard goat cheese was replaced without any fuss, and the replacement was fine. Unfortunately, the chef cooked my fish soup so thick, like a pudding with too much flour and potatoes, that I couldn't eat it. I also found far more potatoes than fish in it. What a shame!

29/08/2026: Brilliant day out for kids the cave is very interesting and then a nice play area for after the tour,nice little gift shop there aswell so no complaints here staff very nice and welcoming aswell

25/08/2026: Such a lovely atmosphere, a real place to relax and unwind. The cave is definitely worth a visit!

30/08/2026: Terrible vegan dinner options. Avoid.

19/08/2026: One of the best meals I’ve had! Absolutely lived up to expectations. The fried fish tacos were fresh and packed with flavor, the green soup with soda bread was a lovely light starter, and the chicken and waffles blew me away — I’d never tried that combo before and honestly, wow. Beautifully plated, great service, and a perfect spot near Killarney Plaza. Highly recommend!

14/08/2026: What an adorable spot! We had a bit of wait which allowed us to entertain the very convenient coffee (and pastry) bar at the front of the restaurant! All four of us got toasties with salad for lunch that were really delicious.. definitely recommend checking the Hare’s Corner out if you’re in Dingle!

14/08/2026: Breakfast was delicious and probably the best we had in Dingle. Food was good quality and service was fast. Recommended if you’re looking for breakfast in Dingle.

23/08/2026: So glad we tried this place. Excellent service and friendly staff. They don’t do taste samples but they don’t need to. You can’t go wrong with any of their unique flavors.

20/07/2026: So tasty, and best value for money ice cream in Dingle in my opinion. Raspberry sorbet so flavourful and not icy at all, and I couldn’t believe how thick and creamy the Nutella ice cream was. Lovely cones. Delicious 🍦 ⭐️

11/08/2026: A real little French boulangerie, croissant et chocolatine (should we say "pain au chocolat" ;-) ), are really tasty. I have enjoyed the quality.

06/08/2026: Quite an expensive bakery. We ordered two chocolate croissants and a loaf of bread and it cost us 9.80 euros.

14/08/2026: Absolutely BEAUTIFUL beef and Guinness stew large enough to share. Made with very clearly fresh and local ingredients (about half a cow and 3 bags of carrots per portion....) Really good service and atmosphere too. Totally recommend.

11/08/2026: Lovely food and excellent service

03/07/2026: I regularly go there as I like their coffee. Salads are amazing and they do small bowls. A good bit of bar space to sit when alone and a lovely terrace when the sun is out.

22/05/2026: Just simply brilliant. Jack and the staff are great.
