The best restaurants in Kerry

19/10/2026: Lovely old world Irish pub restaurant. Lovely lunch and good menu

12/10/2026: Nice rooms, fair price, good food, and a fantastic location.

11/06/2026: Very nice hotel, great photo ops around the river and bay, the rooms were mostly good aside from some plumbing issues, and the service was good as well. Would recommend and make sure to take the wonderful walk around the property!

09/06/2026: Stayed 2 nights in Marianne's Cottage and it was stunning! Definitely the highlight of our trip. Beautiful, huge rooms. Charming kitchen. Two fireplaces. Spectacular views. Loved it so much we decided to hang around most of the time rather than go out. Make sure to order the breakfast basket...so good!

31/08/2026: Hands down the best pastries on the Ring of Kerry. We were blown away by the selection and quality. Everything was so fresh. We couldn’t help ourselves and purchased two pastries each but we should have bought two of everything.

04/08/2026: I got an assortment of treats today! Some were lovely- especially the cupcakes and custard pastry. We did not enjoy the rocky road or brownie. Unfortunately there was an overpowering taste from the cooking chocolate used in its making. The artificial sweetness wasn’t enjoyable.

16/08/2026: A place to discover without delay. We were looking for an Irish pub with music and a great atmosphere for a festive evening, and we found it near our holiday rental. There were seven of us, adults from Brittany and the Vendée region, and we felt very comfortable. The welcome was fantastic thanks to the very friendly owner, the singer, and the Irish people in the pub. We sang along with them, danced... well, as best we could, but what matters is that we had a wonderful evening. We took a photo before the pub closed with two Irish singers, and another Irishman swooped in and joined the picture 😂 hiding in the background.

31/07/2026: This is a great bar. The staff are fantastic and the manager Tom will do anything for you. Well worth a visit everything you’d need.

04/09/2026: Their homemade seafood chowder is incredibly delicious! I recommend indeed! However, there is only one check per table available. So paying separately was not an option for us.

01/09/2026: The beef stew is to die for,can't wait till we are back on Kerry mid September, will definitely be visiting a few times even though we are staying on Valentia island. Roll on September 16th.❤️🇮🇪❤️

11/10/2026: Sue was absolutely Wonderful 😊. She was very helpful with directions, recommendations for our trip - what see - what routes to take - what and where pharmacies are. So pleasant and just Lovely. Coffee, scones, and the espresso Delicious.

29/09/2026: Our waitress, Rose was terrific and the Shepherds Pie the very best.

01/10/2026: Always come here for chicken & bacon ceasar and always impressed the food is amazing and customer service is even better 💞💕💞

24/09/2026: Got carbonara 12.50, yeah was grand, expected a bit more taste out of it seeing as it sounds like an Italian. Anyway twas grand, people mention large portions, I'd have eaten more but it wasn't a stingey portion by any means, generous enough if you're not pure hungry. Hard to bate a real carbonara in Italy.

13/08/2026: Killarney Royal Townhouse was definitely the highlight of our trip. The service was outstanding, the room was incredible, and food was delicious. A personalized note and local treats were left for us when we arrived. We also received fresh scones at check out! These came in handy on a long train ride. The front desk staff was helpful at check in and with a small issue with the room window. For this very small inconvenience they offered us drinks in the restaurant another night. The turndown service with fresh water each night made us even more relaxed after long days exploring. Breakfast each morning was delicious. We enjoyed the made to order breakfast which was a nice treat after other hotels we stayed at. Also the location was perfect because you are walking distance to everything, but outside of all the activity. Everything was 5 star service! Thank you for making our stay so memorable.

06/07/2026: Absolutely amazing hotel. Everyone was so helpful and couldn't do enough to accommodate your stay. Highly recommend and a true bit of Irish hospitality.

11/07/2026: Great little pub, with live music on Tuesdays.

16/06/2026: Great pub - it's almost exclusively people from the neighborhood in this pub - they all know each other - you're immediately integrated into this community => I felt totally comfortable and laughed a lot.

04/10/2026: Cafe was lovely food was top class and staff were very friendly and helpful we will be back again

03/10/2026: Probably one of the most crazy decorated restaurants I’ve ever been to 😂 There’s honestly so much going on, but it definitely great for kids. The food was alright, I got the loaded chips, we were just popping in for a small lunch, think it’s more suited to a brunch vibe or coming for a proper big meal. Overall, worth experiencing for the decor alone!

13/07/2026: We were treated very kindly and courteously, despite being clearly identifiable as tourists (wearing "Pubs of Ireland" T-shirts). Great live music! The pub doesn't serve food.

16/06/2026: Best pub ever, very friendly owners and locals, we absolutely loved it! We were a group of tourists from Italy and felt so welcome we never wanted to leave.

31/05/2026: Nice little hotel. Located right on the main road. Tourists partying until 3 a.m., constant truck and bus traffic make for a very noisy night. To top it all off, directly opposite is the local wheelbarrow vendor who starts loading his wheelbarrows with bricks from a distance of 10 meters at 5 a.m. Surely he's getting revenge on the revelers. It's a shame because the girls put in a lot of effort.

25/05/2026: Our golf group stayed at McSweeny Arms and we loved it!! Kelly Anne and her staff were the best. Cant imagine staying anywhere else. Rioms were prefect and the breakfast was first class! Red Breast nightcaps were a hit as well. Eight grumpy ole men absolutely loved it!! tc

03/07/2026: Great spot, Listowel heritage makes it extra special

25/06/2026: Nice bartender. Good pub. 7€ for a pint

31/08/2026: A very nice place with a beautiful view of the river, atmospheric, and wonderful service... delicious and fresh food, beautifully presented. I recommend it to everyone❤️❤️❤️👌👌

28/08/2026: We ate delicious fish and chips and soup!

12/08/2026: Best chip shop I’ve ever been to. We popped in for a Spice Box and a curry chip and they were both amazing! The shop is spotlessly clean and one thing that came to my attention was that when both members of staff took cash payments they wash their hands before carrying on cooking the food! Will definitely return next time I’m in the area.

28/07/2026: The young chap there just made me a fantastic burger, just what I needed.
