The best restaurants in Kenmare

01/08/2025: This place is top-notch quality. Booking is recommended. We went early without a reservation and ordered the seafood linguine and some tapas from the daily special. Spectacular.

29/07/2025: The food was divine, we had the seafood linguini and lamb ragu, both dishes were delicious and the perfect portion size. It’s not a stretch of the imagination to say there is no bad dish on the menu. The service is super, the host and waitstaff was friendly, fast and attentive (as well as a hilarious character). Our food was prepared and served nice and efficiently (fast but not too fast). Overall, it’s a phenomenal restaurant that you have to dine at if you’re in Kenmare. Would go again anytime we’re here

15/08/2025: Everything was delicious, especially the apple tarte tatin. The staff was very friendly and the place very pleasant. A 10.

02/08/2025: I couldn't recommend this restaurant enough. The meal was amazing and the service excellent. Bravo!!

08/07/2025: Delicious cinnamon buns and great coffee

04/07/2025: This is a great coffee shop with the best coffee and pastries ever. The owner is amazing guy and very friendly and helpful as we talked to him about things to see in the area. Love the ambience and vibe and food and drink.

19/07/2025: I loved the Pizza Spagnola with the little bit of honey on top!

19/07/2025: Perfect pizza, one of the best we've ever had. I recommend it 🤩😘😋

05/08/2025: French bakery with exceptional pastries that feels like a Parisian cafe, it looks small but there's plenty of seating further back. The chocolate tart is so rich and decadent. The strawberry tart is light and sweet. The croissant is flakey and buttery and served with fresh jam. They also have traditional baguettes and savory bites to eat.

03/08/2025: Great place with delicious products It's expensive but it's good and of good quality

06/08/2025: Quality breakfast and very reasonable price.

05/08/2025: We had lunch at the Kenmare Brewhouse and it was absolutely delicious. The service was fantastic and we would love to come back one day! I had the classic sandwich without ham, but the fish and chips were great too.

14/08/2025: I booked a room at Davitt’s last minute to escape a terrible Airbnb and I am so glad I did! The room was large and comfortable, the bed was cosy, and breakfast was excellent with really friendly service. When I first walked into the room, I noticed the extractor fan noise from the restaurant below. I am guessing it’s to vent smoke and cooking smells. I wasn’t sure if it would keep me awake, but closing the windows helped, and when I came back from my evening out, the fan was off. I slept really well, and while it was on again in the morning, I’m not sure when it started as it never disturbed me. The room was on the warm side but there was a fan provided, which was great, although it could do with a dust. I even tried cleaning it myself using the in-room hair dryer. The bathroom was clean and spacious with excellent shower pressure. I even took a bath, which I rarely do, and the bath and shower gel provided was lovely. Shampoo was provided but no conditioner, which was an interesting choice, but not a big issue. The location was perfect, and there were no problems getting in after the doors were locked at night. One small thing: when I came back during the day, the cleaners had been in and did an excellent job, but they had left my room unlocked. It wasn’t a huge worry as I hadn’t left anything valuable out and only other guests can access the corridor, but it is something to keep in mind. Overall, it was miles better than my Airbnb experience. Comfortable, well located, and with a delicious breakfast. I would definitely stay here again.

11/08/2025: We went there on a busy night and the staff quickly found us a table. We got three very different dishes and they all tasted amazing. Excellent service, attentive staff and a lively atmosphere

17/08/2025: Decidió una comida para llevar aquí por primera vez animado por las críticas de los asesores de viaje y no fue decepcionado. Delicioso pollo salteado y langostinos y fideos chow mein. Hubo un poco de espera como extremadamente ocupado de un domingo por la noche, pero bien valió la pena.

08/08/2025: Absolutamente hermoso lugar. Nos llevaron a pesar de que no teníamos una reserva e IT estaba ocupado. El personal era muy amable y servicial. Tuvimos una hermosa comida.

16/08/2025: Top location and awesome breakfast.

15/08/2025: Lovely hotel, I was in the modern section and the room was spacious. Breakfast is quite busy and there is only one coffee machine so that can be a little slow. Staff are great friendly and helpful. Dinners are lovely very well cooked and presented. Overall I would recommend a lot.

17/08/2025: Beautiful hotel in a stunning location. We recently enjoyed lunch at the Park Hotel and it was an absolute delight. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with the warmest of welcomes. We were given the choice of where to sit, and as it was a beautiful day, we opted for the terrace. The views across the rolling gardens down to the riverbed were simply breathtaking. The food was fresh, local, and full of flavor. Thank you for a wonderful experience — we can’t wait to return, hopefully for an overnight stay next time!

10/08/2025: The luxurious Park Hotel Kenmare is located within the park, a five-star hotel with a wonderful atmosphere and impeccable service. It is the ideal place for those who want to combine a holiday in nature with high-level comfort. The hotel offers picturesque views, and its proximity to forest trails makes it a great base for walks in the park.

28/07/2025: Had a delicious Buddha Bowl here! Fresh food in a charming Kenmare street. Great coffee too!

26/07/2025: Fun and delicious spot for lunch.

13/08/2025: Just spent two weeks in Ireland from America and went with two other couples. This was by far and away the girls favorite meal. Food/service/atmosphere were great, but expect to open up your wallet. The scallops were fantastic.

12/08/2025: The food was excellent and beautifully presented. The atmosphere was pleasant. The only complaint was the attention to detail, which was too informal. For the price—almost €50 per person—one would expect more attention to detail.

22/08/2025: 6 of us dined at Lagom on a busy Saturday evening and we were delighted with our meals. Short rib was fab. The girls serving were super. Well done Chef !

19/08/2025: A last minute booking for dinner turned into a memorable meal. Everything was outstanding. Service was excellent, seating was very comfortable. The food was the biggest hit! We had the fish special , the lamb and a steak. All were 10/10 , extra veg were delicate and tasty. A very good meal and we thought the value was great.

18/08/2025: Il locale é accogliente e si mangia bene. Ha molto giro e ti trovano il tavolo anche senza prenotazione. Personale veloce e scattante. Molto buona la suprema di pollo farcita con prosciutto e spinaci e servita con salsa ai funghi. Consigliato !

07/08/2025: Acabo de tener una comida rápida temprano esta noche - dos adultos y dos niños. Comida y Servicio era excelente. Generalmente hay buena comida que se puede tener en todo Kenmare, pero pensamos que esto era un corte por encima de algunos otros lugares que visitamos (y a un precio razonable).

03/07/2025: Un restaurante pequeño pero encantador en una calle lateral de la calle principal de Kenmare. Tocaron un maravilloso jazz Dixieland, y la comida y el servicio fueron excelentes. ¡El mejor pollo Kiev que he probado jamás!

08/06/2025: We had breakfast here yesterday. I was thrilled to see a vegan option on the menu, a vegan sausage roll, and it didn't disappoint. The filling (walnut) and the pastry, as well as the accompanying relish, were delicious. The only thing that would have been an improvement would be to have something accompanying it, eg spinach, mushrooms or hashbrowns. The roll on its own didn't quite feel like a complete meal, and while spinach was listed as a side, it was cooked with butter and I didn't think to ask whether it could be vegan (until after the meal!). My husband enjoyed his eggs Benedict and the coffee was perfect. Service and ambience was also delightful.
