The best restaurants in Kildare

21/02/2026: We had dinner, nice friendly staff, food was delicious, we tried couple of pasta dishes. Next time we will have pizza, which looked great.

08/02/2026: Beautiful restaurant food so good

22/12/2025: Went for movie with kids...was provided required support we asked ..Cinema was good in space, might require bit ventilation and kids food was also in good quantity.

16/12/2025: I really like my hometown cinema. Nice and small, with 6 screens and good movies. Just the popcorn are very very salty, don't give them to kids

12/08/2025: One of the best pubs I’ve been in Ireland. Great atmosphere! The owners are such a nice couple that makes you feel at home, and the service is great! Perfect to gather with friends, family, partner or just to stop by for a drink. And it has a billiard hall and a music box!!

25/07/2025: A truly wonderful pub with a lovely atmosphere. We had a really good time there. Thanks Mary (Mamma Mia 😉) and Mick!

28/09/2025: One of the best restaurants in Lucan/Leixlip/Celbridge/Maynooth area. The Dover sole meunière was simply outstanding. Better than fish I’ve had in Sole Dublin. Service was great too. Sound bunch!

23/08/2025: Attentive, friendly service. The sea food platter is generous in size and v nice.

11/11/2025: Cakes are great for birthdays and produce is always fresh. Highly recommend

11/09/2025: Been here several times and I've always been very impressed by the quality of their produce. Sandwiches and rolls are prepared fresh and are delicious. I love their batch bread. The coffee log is really light yet full of flavour. Staff are lovely and always friendly too. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

07/12/2025: The food is super, the climate is slightly chilly but it might be because of the winter. The staff are very friendly and nice. (The vanilla matcha could have a bigger note of vanilla)

10/11/2025: Absolutely fantastic experience — great food, excellent service, and a 6-star ambience! You can truly relax and enjoy your meal while listening to the soothing sound of the river. Bonus points for being open from 9 AM to 9 PM on Fridays and Saturdays, even though Google still lists their hours as only until 7 PM.

22/08/2025: Nice little spot to grab sandwich and coffee.

04/07/2025: The Dubai chocolate was the best that i ever tried *Delicious*

31/12/2025: Beautiful atmosphere, very decorative, 10/10 food (not to cheap or too pricey) and very nice staff.

12/12/2025: I’ve been a customer since 101 took over. Initially (for the first few years) they were the best, food and staff were amazing. But, the last year the standard has gone down. Such a pity. Might give it a miss for a good while after this evening. Worst cod ever. From the best to the worst so fast? Disappointed to say the least.

06/12/2025: Teeling distillery cafeteria, reasonable prices, for a coffee before the visit

10/10/2025: Comfortable place and lovely staff and great lattes for €3.40

20/08/2025: What can I say about The River Café, the food is always excellent, and Paul the owner is an absolute gentleman. He works hard alongside his friendly, hardworking team, and it really shows. The coffee is the best around, and I often stop in as I work just up the road, it’s a real gem to have on our doorstep. I love that there’s a great choice of breads, and the breakfasts are both delicious and plentiful. I usually go for a ciabatta for lunch with a mix of fillings, and it never disappoints. Great value for money and highly recommended. If you’re passing by, definitely pop in!

01/06/2025: Kilcullen is so fortunate to have such a great cafe as this. Plenty of options, such a great asset to the town.

14/08/2025: Bardons has the nicest food in Kilcullen 10 times nicer than the hideout! Great service even nicer food I’ve been to bandons plenty of times have tried most things on the menu and never been disappointed! The beef is my favourite but there’s plenty of options for everybody ! 10/10 would recommend

13/07/2025: The food…..was the nicest food I’ve had in a long time unreal experience fast service lovely staff I had the Mexican chicken burger omg unreal big portions aswell the steak sandwich could feed two people and the chips where chips can’t complain lovely atmosphere we only went for food we didn’t stay there but the pub was lovely the price is fair for what you getting

30/12/2025: Food is great and staff are very good.

28/12/2025: The cafe was busy when we visited... a good sign. €15 for a single slice of toast with avocado and poached egg seemed very excessive, especially as there was no table service for orders, all of which had to be completed at the counter.... the food was tasty.

31/05/2025: Huge portions. Share a starter 😃

08/05/2025: Very delicious. Portions are big.

28/07/2025: Good pub and great pint of Guinness
