Kenmare
06/07/2025: Top quality food and great service. You won't be disappointed.
01/07/2025: What an incredible restaurant that is a must visit if in Kenmare. Neil the host was very welcoming and extremely accommodating. I am a vegetarian with additional dietary requirements and find eating out extremely challenging. Nothing was too much trouble and I had a delicious pear and blue cheese salad followed by an amazing mushroom pasta. The other starters and mains ordered by the other members of our party were of the same high standard. Obviously all made inhouse by their resident chef with fresh ingredients. When our deserts arrived, my mother's had a candle in it and Neil sang happy birthday, which made our evening extra special.
Be sure to book ahead to guarantee a table.

10/07/2025: Outstanding. If you are in town please eat here
10/07/2025: Really enjoyed our meal here in May, one of our top in Ireland. Options tend towards the "small plate" side so don't expect gigantic portions. This gives you the chance to try a few delicious things, and everything WAS delicious.
We could tell this is the place that all the locals go when celebrating a special occasion. Always a good sign. Worth making reservations here!

11/07/2025: Good place to eat or enjoy the night afterwards
07/07/2025: Great pub and food.
They seem to have fewer staff this year, and the waiting time has increased a fair bit for a pint.

The Bay Restaurant

15/07/2025: Unfortunately I was check into the kenmare where I have stayed before and always have been totally satisfied but due to a bereavement I had to cancel.... I rang and the lady was so sympathetic and I was able to cancel without any payment needed,,, with all that is going on I really appreciate the understanding from the kenmare and hopefully I will return in the future... God bless and thank you again
14/07/2025: Lovely hotel, just 10 minutes walk from Kenmare centre. Breakfast was very nice, plenty choice. Evening meals were delicious. There was iced water available in reception. Pool was a good size. Staff were very helpful. Would definitely recommend.

Davitt's
Kenmare
16/07/2025: Went for dinner as a group of 4. Pleasant restaurant, nicely decorated. Tables are on the small side. Located in the centre of Kenmare. Service was fine. Food was a huge disappointment. We went out of our way to stop off here as the reviews were so good and alot of other restaurants in the area are closed Mon-Wed. Food was very bland, no seasoning on chicken supreme, dried out old veg served along side it, burger was ok, chips weren’t great and the wings were awful (tasted wet and as if they were boiled).
13/07/2025: Lovely friendly staff. Good food.

Casey's Bar & Restaurant
Kenmare
29/06/2025: Amazing food, I can't wait to call again. I think the wait time was a little bit long, but its worth it. I understand that things are cooked to order so I personally don't mind waiting the extra few minutes for food that is perfect (the beef burger was unreal). Nice atmosphere and excellent staff.
26/06/2025: Yes, pleasant atmosphere, delicious spare ribs and fine drinks.

Lagom Restaurant & Accommodation Kenmare
Kenmare
17/06/2025: I will be thinking about the meal I had here for a long time! Had a burrata starter which was un.real. Then the best gnocchi I've ever had, and for dessert a rhubarb ice cream sandwich of dreams. I was part of a group of about 20 people and the service was faultless. A delicious and memorable experience!
13/06/2025: Excellent guest house and extremely helpful staff. Very well-kept restaurant and food definitely up to expectations

PF McCarthys
Kenmare
11/06/2025: It was like our waiter forgot about our table. We twice requested water from him which never arrived. Had to ask another waiter to pay our bill.
Draw your own conclusions…
08/06/2025: Do not go here unless you want frustration. We came to this restaurant based on the stellar reviews. The food was great. The problem was the service. Seated next to the till, we saw customer after customer coming up to complain that they’d been ignored, and trying to convince their server to let them pay their bill. Again and again. Never have we had such appalling service.

12/07/2025: Great service and manager was very nice. Food was decent. It was a little expensive in comparison to similar restaurants we had been to.
08/07/2025: Cottage pie was perfect. Dessert was tasty, but the bread was a bit dry.
