The best restaurants in Ballybunion

18/05/2025: The staff are extremely helpful with recommendations. The ice cream was so tasty, priced very reasonable as it is homemade and award winning!

20/07/2025: What an absolute disgrace! Please be warned, they only serve you half shots in your drinks. Keep an eye on the bartenders when they are pouring your drinks. Rude bouncers. Charging €10 for entry and won’t even let you finish your drink when they are closing. I live outside of Ireland now and used to frequent JDs ALOT and it breaks my heart the absolute state of the place. It’s the middle of July and it used to be the place to be. Greed ruins everything and that just sums up JDs!

10/01/2025: Nice pub and staff. Had a nice evening here over Xmas.

07/09/2024: Ok for a pint .not much of an atmosphere

22/07/2025: Very delicious and lovely looking seafood chowder and fish with chorizo.

17/08/2025: Saturday 16th. Of August, arrived at the Coast Cafe there is a sign just inside the door “PLEASE WAIT TO BE SEATED” I’d be still waiting if I had not found a table myself which wasn’t even wiped clean, two waitresses sitting down at one of the tables having food, a beef burger was ordered, when it arrived we discovered it was half raw some of it was red, totally disgusting, very bad since it was taken over, won’t be going there again.🤬

23/07/2025: Coming here every year and this experience was very disappointing. 5 of us arrived for breakfast before 12. The waitress came to take our order at 12.04 and said breakfast was over. Not good enough as we were there before 12. We watched the table beside us receive their breakfast, who arrived at the same time as us. Very disappointing as we said to the waitress when we arrived we were there for breakfast. My daughter asked for soup and was told it was not ready yet. We then waited 20 mins for toasted sandwich's. 😞

24/08/2025: The best experience, with waves crashing outside. Bliss.

26/04/2025: Absolutely disgraceful especially the f+b manager the food and beverage manager. I was going there every day and today I went and they tried to charge me double of what I had I went to reception to ask for manager and the f+b manager kept getting in my face told him that ill speak with the manager that I spoke with before and he said I'm barred from coming there again and I asked why he couldn't give me a reason and then I found out from Mike the manager who I spoke with before that the f+b manager said I didn't pay for something few days before hand so he is making false allegations about me and discriminating me for no reason I'm now taking legal action against him for racism discrimination and false allegations the f+b manager is working in the bar area so please be aware of him I would not recommend anyone to go for coffee tea dinner in the bar are.

17/07/2025: If you order a korma don't forget the straw it's weak and watery with some hard pawns at the bottom worst curry I have ever seen!!!!!
