The best restaurants in Killarney

24/04/2026: Piccolo’s is THE spot for pizza! My husband and I felt welcomed from the moment we walked in. Our food was fresh and delicious, and service was quick! Ms. Veronica was amazing and took such great care of us; we definitely left having made a new friend. Piccolo’s will be a necessary stop if we ever find ourselves back in Ireland!

12/04/2026: Amazing, amazing pizza. Shared Margherita and Carnoso pizzas with my partner and genuinely, possibly the best pizzas we've ever had in our lives.

13/04/2026: The nicest staff, and the most delicious ice cream! We highly recommend the Dingle Sea Salt. I also had chocolate, and chocolate whiskey, and those were fantastic. A must visit when you are in Killarney (or anywhere you can have Murphy’s!)

01/04/2026: Great ice cream and the friendliest staff you can find!

07/03/2026: Very nice place and comfortable! The food, the service everything is perfect. Nice night!

29/12/2025: Great menu with some really tasty dishes. Great value on their early bird menu too. Will definitely go again.

18/04/2026: Fantastic meal, wonderful ambiance, and Johnny (the owner) is a national treasure, far as I'm concerned. My first time having boxty and it was delicious!

14/04/2026: The food was absolutely amazing! From a roasted duck that put all other duck dishes I have had to shame, scallops so fresh and pillowy I was certain they had a box in the ocean pulling them out as we ordered, and a nutroast that was so tangy and well prepared it was to die for, I will definitely be vacationing back here again. Everything we had was the absolute best version I could have asked for. Shirley, our waitress was so kind and informative, she made the whole experience that much better!

20/04/2026: Exceptional experience. Great food, great staff and great to see an owner operated, family run business doing well.

15/04/2026: We barely had time to blink before the food landed on the table. Impressive speed, less impressive freshness. The lasagne was sweet enough to qualify as dessert, only smaller and somehow sadder. The lamb? Let’s just say it had clearly been through a long day. Upstairs had all the charm of a workplace canteen, and the whole place felt like a “eat fast, make room” operation for the next wave of tourists. Safe to say, I wont be returning, feels less like dining out and more like being processed.

10/01/2026: Coffee is always perfect when I come here. Great selection of coffee beans for sale for home/gifts also. Highly recommend!

07/01/2026: Amazing coffee & matcha and bagels were also delicious! Plus free wifi

26/02/2026: Absolutely fantastic food, the staff are all really friendly.

24/02/2026: Absolutely, delicious dinner. My Favorite in killarney so far. Each dish was fantastic. We got starter, main course, and dessert. The lamb of shank were incredible delicious. friendly Owner, friendly staff. The wife of Roger, She go out to had a lovely chat with us. The cocktails is also incredible, We was very enjoy.

15/03/2026: Hosted a hen party crafty workshop here recently and the venue was brilliant, Daniel was most helpful with our set up process, so attentive and positive while serving all of our customers cocktails during the activity, and he even helped us clean up after. Totally unnecessary, we really appreciate it. Will definitely consider this venue again in future.

15/03/2026: Top class selection of Irish whiskey. As good as it gets really. Some very rare casks if you know what you’re looking for. The flights are decent too. Good selection of world whiskeys on offer as well. Clean, nicely decorated and spacious.

03/01/2026: Best pub in Killarney and extremely dog friendly! Couldn’t recommend more a visit here!

11/12/2025: Good vibes. Good drink and banging toasted cheese sandwiches.

12/10/2025: Very good hotel, close to Town Centr and train station

10/10/2025: Excellent hotel, we recently stayed there at a conference and everything from the location to the rooms are brilliant and the staff absolutely a credit to the hotel .

11/04/2026: We took a group of 12 seniors down there yesterday it didn't make a difference if you had allergies was diabetic etc they had no intentions of helping all l wanted was a toasted chicken sandwich and chips l was told no (l couldn't eat what they had on the menu) the manager's were very rude and the reason they gave was they would have to slice a portion of chicken to make the sandwich l had no problem paying for the portion then they would not take bills individually they put it all together so we had to sit down and total up what each person owed it was a joke never in life will we go back there not just this group but our families also l have family living in Killarney and they used to go there all the time never again the 2 managers are horrible MEN??

07/04/2026: Pub atmosphere. Generous portions.

18/12/2025: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Had an amazing experience at Zone Cafe and Restaurant in Killarney! 😍 The Asian fusion food was DELICIOUS - loved the Chicken rice with🔥!

01/12/2025: Brilliant service friendly staff and great food

19/09/2025: Lovely meal with former work colleagues

11/09/2025: I was in Dublin for the first time, walking about doing tourist things. I got hungry and Ryan’s pub was at hand. I didn’t Yelp or Google it beforehand because any old lunch would do. I had the chowder, which was magnificent. Being new to Ireland, I assumed all Irish chowder would be the same: wrong! A really standout meal!!!

11/04/2026: Good food that respects traditional Irish cuisine. Friendly and helpful staff.

05/04/2026: Came in for a snack and drink, I just asked for the wings, gentlemen said no and turned around 🤣 so we left.

12/04/2026: As part of my birthday weekend, my hubby brought me here for dinner. We were late and almost lost our table (our own fault), just made it in time, despite this, the staff are very welcoming and friendly and very attentive. It’s obvious that this place is popular as every table was occupied. The waitress brought some bread to start with. I had sizzling prawns for starters and the seafood tagliatelle, my hubby had a caprese salad and hake fish. All of our dishes were tasty, my hubby said it was one of the best hake dishes he has had. By the end I was quite full so I wasn’t going to bother but my hubby insisted.. and then I knew why, when I heard the waiting staff singing “happy birthday” to me as they brought out my dessert which has a huge sparkler in the middle of the dessert, everyone joined in too, they even sang my name (I never experienced that before). I was definitely taken by surprise and just thought it was such a nice touch which added to the dining experience, despite not being regulars. It’s the little things that matter and count and I will share… Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed the evening, ambience, food and service. It certainly lives up to the reviews and would highly recommend!! We will definitely return.

08/04/2026: We ordered three different types of oyster plates, seafood chowder, fish and chips, calamari, and salmon. Everything was just great.
