The best restaurants in Kenmare

20/04/2025: Superb discovery in Kenmare. Easily of the tastiest restaurants in town. We tried the specials and were not disappointed. Seafood a must.

20/04/2025: The food was outstanding and completely unique. In addition, the service was friendly and even though we came without a reservation, we found space and were looked after really well. There were dishes that are not available everywhere and the price and performance are simply in perfect proportion. An absolute recommendation for delicious food and a great time.

15/05/2025: This is our second time eating at Mulcahy's. We were here three years ago. It is still as good as it was then. Beautifully presented creative dishes, all delicious. We shared the pate, prawns, and cauliflower to start. Followed by two fish pubs and the vegetarian option. I had the brisket. It was divine. The greens that came with it were heaven. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Staff really know their trade. The wine was beautiful. Highly recommend.

11/05/2025: Tenemos mucha suerte de haber encontrado el Kenmare de Mulcahy. Comemos en 2 noches de nuestra estancia en la ciudad. La comida era increíble. El personal era experimentado, profesional y atento. El lugar estaba impecablemente limpio. Teníamos mucha hambre y decidimos tomar un plato principal y un postre. Nos dieron pan de cortesía que tan sabroso. El plato principal que elegimos fue carne de res y una porción de papas fritas. Voy a adjuntar una foto. Pero ninguna palabra podía explicar los fantásticos sabores que había en todo el plato. No había necesidad de condimento. Es por eso que volvimos la noche siguiente para comer exactamente lo mismo. Solo teníamos un postre entre nosotros y era tan sabroso también. Era pudín de toffee pegajoso con helado. Ojalá viviéramos más cerca de ese restaurante. La 2a noche tuvimos 2 platos principales 1 patatas fritas, 2 pintas de Guinness y 2 pintas botella de un IPA fue de 82 euros. Gran relación calidad-precio en comparación con la mayoría de los lugares que he comido en años. Bien hecho todo el mundo 👏 P. S. libro con antelación aunque a veces dan paseo -en

09/05/2025: Incredible food, coffees, and service!

03/05/2025: 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.

05/05/2025: Absolutely the best cafe and Croissant in Ireland. It tastes like Paris.

28/04/2025: A French-speaking couple runs this small gastronomic specialty. French bistro classics, small dishes and sweets are offered. The quality is truly amazing! The Quiche Lorraine stands up to any comparison! They also offer very good coffee from portafilter machines. I experienced it here for the first time in Ireland.

10/05/2025: Delicious food, friendly staff, great venue. We were there with our 11 month old and they were very friendly and welcoming. The buttermilk chicken burger was 👌🏻

10/05/2025: Stopped in after a day trip. Nice place. Good service. Had the specials. Both were very good. Good atmosphere and busy.

10/04/2025: Stayed here for a night with my fiancé. We had a slight issue with the room that the duty manger Sharon dealt with in a very professional and caring manner. She is a lady and a pleasure to deal with. Our stay was so relaxing because of this. The restaurant waitress Monika was very courteous as were the other serving staff. Lovely leisure centre too. Sauna and steam room are great, staff are amazing here too. Proximity to town centre is a five minute walk, ideal. Thanks guys, well done. 👍

16/03/2025: Clean room, lovely heated swimming pool with steam room and a perfect jacuzzi! Highly recommend this retreat!

30/04/2025: Irish style pub, we stopped here to eat and it turned out to be an excellent choice. We ordered two burgers, one with lamb and the other with beef. The bread was fragrant, the meat very tasty and we really enjoyed the hand-cut chips. Informal and very fast service. All accompanied with excellent live music.

28/04/2025: Outstanding service and food. Top of my list for places to eat and drink in Kenmare. The staff are so welcoming and cannot do enough to accommodate you, especially Meg who is the star of the show! We had a really exceptional experience at PF McCarthy's and cannot thank them enough for their hospitality. 10/10

14/04/2025: We had food here while we stayed in Kenmare and were impressed with the quality as weren't expecting it to be so good. It seems a very popular spot too for both takeaway and sit in. We got the chicken curry and schezwan chicken. Very good!

14/04/2025: Tuvimos comida aquí mientras estuvimos en Kenmare y nos quedamos impresionados con la calidad, ya que no esperaban que fuera tan bueno. Parece un lugar muy popular también para llevar y sentarse. Tenemos pollo al curry y pollo Schezwan. ¡Muy bien!

14/05/2025: We had our evening meal here on two of our 3 days in Kenmare. Cheerful atmosphere, great staff (especiaqlly the guy with the curly ginger beard) and excellent food. All the dishes we tried were good and we all commented on the plentiful vegetables.

10/05/2025: Ate at restaurant. Good quality food and spread at fair prices.

27/04/2025: We were there yesterday and sat outside on the terrace with our dog - the weather wasn't ideal, but we had our dog with us and wanted to have her with us too. That wasn't a problem either. The staff was very friendly and even brought us a dog bowl with water, which our dog gratefully accepted. One of us went in to order and a waiter brought our food out pretty quickly. The food was delicious and plentiful. Accordingly, the slightly higher price was completely justified. It was quite crowded and loud inside, so we had a lot more peace outside. We didn't make a reservation either and just thought we'd give it a try as we drove past.

22/04/2025: Llegamos a Kenmare y nos alegramos de nuestro be&be recomendado Casey's. La comida era deliciosa. Mi amigo tenía la suela negra y todavía está delirando al respecto. Tenía el Korma que era perfecto. Y encantado de descubrir que los propietarios tienen familia en Boston! Recomiendo encarecidamente una parada en Casey's!

18/05/2025: Worst Pizza I ever had, give up trying to make pizza in Ireland, wouldn't feed this shit to a dog

15/05/2025: This does exactly what it says on the tin. They serve pizza. No salads, no sides, just pizza. The wine choice is red or white. The pizza is gorgeous. The wine is fine. The service is efficient and friendly. The deserts looked lovely. Lots of families were eating here. Prices were reasonable.

23/05/2025: Amazing food and service - did not stay but appreciated the quiet ambience and welcoming staff

22/05/2025: Really lovely townhouse where there is great attention to detail, from the welcome truffles to the choice of shower gel. The owner is very welcoming and we were also very impressed with the range and quality of the breakfast options.

04/05/2025: The moment you walk down the driveway and see the fairy lights twinkling and the candlelight glowing , you know you’re in for a real treat. The atmosphere is cheerful , the staff so welcoming and friendly, the food is superb. I know there are many very good restaurants in Kenmare and sometimes it feels like there is TOO much choice. But having been to the Lime Tree I can honestly say that it’s the pick of the bunch. The atmosphere, the lovely staff , the quality and the presentation of the food are second to none. Eating here is a memorable experience. They’ve managed to tick all the boxes , and I love the fact that it’s owned and run by a family all working together as a team to make your night special. I cannot wait to go back.

24/04/2025: Fantastic evening at the Lime Tree - beautiful setting with a cosy table by the fire, and exceptionally welcoming staff. Food was super, particularly the fish of the day (hake) and potato gratin. Can't wait to return next time we're in Kenmare!

09/05/2025: Nice, touristy pub with good food

25/04/2025: Great staff, food was delicious..pint was expensive.
