The best restaurants in Kenmare

08/08/2026: It was my first time ever going to this place with my family and our experience was amazing. The waiter I wish I knew his name was fantastic he looked after us very well , we had good crack with him . The atmosphere was relaxing and very friendly , we weren’t kept waiting for our food, it was out in good time. The food was delicious, the black sole was delectable, it was full of flavour especially with the saltiness from the caper butter , the hake was tender it fell in your mouth and the wagu burger was succulent. For dessert we had a strawberry cheesecake and it was creamy and sweet with a bit of sourness from the raspberry filling in the middle . Overall No35 is great place to dine .

05/08/2026: A lovely restaurant with very good food. Highly recommended.

21/06/2026: To David and The staff at Davitts Guesthouse Kenmare. Myself And my friend stayed for the weekend at Davitts for my best friends Wedding. And from start to finish, we had the most welcoming and friendliest experience. The room was so comfortable and spacious and the breakfast was such a lovely homemade start to our day. We had the pleasure of meeting with David the owner. Such a gentleman. He kindly drove us to Kilarney Train Station to make sure we got the train home safe. We would highly recommend Davitts Guesthouse Kenmare for your Next Stay and ours. Thank You for Everything and we will return soon to the Kingdom 🌟 ☘️ Jennifer Duggan And Kay Moore

15/06/2026: Dogs aren't allowed in the inside bar but they have a good sized beer garden at the back (accessible from the street behind) which is dog friendly. And if you're solo with dogs - as I was - you can order and pay from your table

16/08/2026: We had such a gorgeous meal in Mulcahy’s. It was incredible from start to finish. ❤️ I had the Beef Wellington and my husband had the Beef Brisket, and both were absolutely outstanding — beautifully cooked, full of flavour and honestly some of the nicest food we’ve had in a long time. Kenmare is lucky to have such an amazing resturant in the town. We’ll definitely be back again soon and would highly recommend Mulcahy’s to anyone looking for a really special meal. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

13/08/2026: First time at this lovely restaurant, the atmosphere was amazing, the layout of the restaurant was very open. The staff were friendly and they looked after my family well , the service was excellent our food came out in good time . The starter was potato peels , they were crispy, crunchy and bite sized. The main was the beef wellington it was cooked to perfection tender , juicy and soft . For dessert the lemon curd was smooth and creamy with a bit of sourness from the raspberry sauce but the two sauces balance each other and the crème brûlée had silky vanilla custard which was smooth and sweet. Overall we had a great experience at this restaurant .

08/08/2026: Great food. Great value. Prompt and friendly service. Great place

13/08/2026: Quality products. The food is pretty much the same as in any other pub, but having tried several, including three in Kenmare, this one really stands out for the quality of its ingredients. Plus, it's cheaper than other pubs. They have a great live band playing Irish-style pop-rock covers. The pork ribs with homemade BBQ sauce were absolutely excellent. The service was a little slow, but that's a welcome change from other pubs where you're rushed through!

12/08/2026: The food is good. The staff is very friendly. The wait is very reasonable. The overall atmosphere is good.

15/07/2026: Wonderful stay at ODonnabhain’s. The hosts, Jer and Vanessa, along with the staff made us feel welcome and comfortable during our 3 night stay. Perfectly located in Kenmare, day trips to the Ring of Kerry and the Beara were possible.

29/05/2026: There’s a free art tour given at 5pm which was incredible - Jonathan’s knowledge was very impressive and just an all round great bloke. Would’ve given a hefty tip if we had any cash! Followed by a few of the best cocktails I’ve ever had in my life - the 1958. Tastes like a spicy marg, looks like a martini. Stunning hotel and the staff were all class, we’d definitely come to stay next time.
