The best restaurants in Kildare

28/05/2025: Great track has a real warm feeling to the place

22/02/2025: A night at the dogs is always a great night out, Really enjoyed our night out only let down was the long wait for food after opting for an admission and food ticket, One staff member operating the till, prep,cooking and serving of food felt sorry for her, missed the first race due to the wait but other wise we enjoyed our night all the tote bar and admission staff were friendly and helpful, Be advised no atm in stadium.

15/04/2025: Ordered from here based on other reviews but for the price the food is not great and portion size is small. The lamb bhuna the texture was muddy and no taste. Both curries bought was mostly sauce no meat. Naan was almost paper thin. DO NOT RECOMMEND, DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY.

26/03/2025: 4th day of the gastric issues. We took two tikka masala with naan bread. Together we have the same problem so it must be this.. We are the regular client of Indian cuisines in Naas but this issue never happened.

03/05/2025: Not a very good experience, Rashers and pudding rock hard, very overdone. Chips and mushrooms very undercooked. Wrap was very dry. Service not the best. Will not be back.

22/03/2025: Really enjoyed a mini breakfast and full breakfast and smoothies with my husband at this cafe today. We both found it delicious. Thanks so much. We’ll be back soon .

15/07/2025: Understaffed, felt so bad for the two guys running between the kitchen and taking orders

03/07/2025: Not bad always quick service very busy spot lunch time.

19/05/2025: Visited on 18/5/25 Person behind counter had no interest in serving left me waiting there .when I said hello to her she never replied . To me looked like she no interest in being there. I ended up walking away as there was no service provided. Not very welcoming

13/05/2025: Nice honest food good variety and choice fast service

13/04/2025: The food here is honestly really good and definitely worth trying. Unfortunately, the service completely ruined the experience. We waited an unreasonably long time just to have someone come over and take our order, and only after we flagged someone down ourselves. The staff didn’t seem interested in being there at all, the waitress looked annoyed and unapproachable the entire time. It felt like we were bothering them just by showing up. It’s a shame, because the kitchen clearly knows what they’re doing, but the service needs improvement. I’m not sure the food alone is worth dealing with that kind of treatment

20/06/2025: Great place , I love the breakfast toastie with ballymaloe relish. Service can be a little slow ,but that's down to the tiny space the girls have to work in, something the owners should sort out because it's a busy spot. Great seating in and outside.

15/06/2025: Lazy... The tea cup provided was dirty and the bagel, while nice, didn't have any pepper

18/06/2025: I had a fantastic time dining here! One of the highlights for me was that they serve Tiger draught — cold, crisp, and the perfect complement to the meal. The food was absolutely delicious — fresh ingredients, well-seasoned, and beautifully presented. Every dish we tried exceeded expectations. The service was equally impressive. The staff were attentive, friendly, and genuinely made us feel welcome when we arrived. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food, great drinks, and a great atmosphere. Will definitely be coming back!

16/05/2025: Every time I go to this restaurant, I will order a prawn cocktail is my favorite. Very delicious. And the the rendang in their restaurant .is delicious . Will not be disappointed.

10/06/2025: We stayed at Burtown House and Gardens for one night, a visit that was meant to be very special as my partner had planned to propose during our stay. Unfortunately, a series of issues made the experience disappointing. The day before our arrival, we received an email from the owner asking to move our dinner reservation to an earlier time, questioning how we had managed to book the original time, even though it had been arranged months earlier in April. When we arrived, we were told our room wasn’t ready and were offered a different one instead, despite having specifically booked our preferred room in advance. My partner had also contacted the owner ahead of time to arrange a few small touches in the room to help make his proposal extra special. The owner assured him this would be taken care of upon arrival, but sadly, nothing was arranged or acknowledged. Despite the setbacks, the staff at The Green Barn restaurant were absolutely lovely, warm, apologetic, and professional. The food was excellent, and they truly did their best to make us feel welcome, even though the issues were outside of their control. While the grounds and interiors are undeniably beautiful, we were left with the impression that the accommodation side of the experience isn’t given the same care or attention. It was particularly disheartening for my partner, as the situation ultimately impacted what was meant to be a memorable and joyful occasion. We had initially considered this venue for a future wedding, but given our experience, we’ve decided to look elsewhere.

25/05/2025: We had our wedding at Burtown House and we chose it as we did not want a typical hotel wedding, and also because the food at Burtown is always excellent. It was the most magical venue, we were blessed with the weather and the gardens were stunning, the photos are all amazing. The food and drinks were delicious (as always from Burtown) and the staff were very friendly and attentive. All of our guests had a wonderful time. The icing on the cake was that our dog was allowed to be part of the ceremony. We would highly recommend it for weddings.

29/06/2025: Apache pizza has always been my go to franchise whenever the pizza craving kicks in. The Apache in Eyre street,Newbridge was a disappointment though due to some rubbery pizza crusts and wrong toppings. To my surprise the local menu which included the chicken burger was a delight and the main course which is the pizza was way below average quality .

28/03/2025: The food was exquisite the people are very polite 10 out of 10 would recommend and would go again

21/06/2025: Cake was stale and coffee cold. Disappointing considering this used to be my go to spot for coffee with a friend for years.

17/05/2025: My partner just picked up two vanilla cream slices for €7 Completely stale, not slightly off, inedible. Not recommended.

02/07/2025: I love the food here, the most delicious pizza I have ever tried. Looking for something spicy, order The Vegas sizzler. I always drive and collect my order so I don't know how the delivery service is but taste wise, nothing beats Pizza Dog Maynooth in Ireland. Wish I could give 10 stars.

18/06/2025: Wonderful ambience great staff and great service

08/05/2025: Some of the best Indian food I’ve had. #71 and #101 with garlic naan and chicken pakora was really yummy, served very hot. We took our food to the river to eat at the picnic bench there.

29/03/2025: Always fantastic food and great service.

27/07/2025: Unnecessarily loud music making it hard to hear what the lovely people counter are asking for. Appreciate the patience of staff repeating themselves. Nonetheless great and delicious food!

27/07/2025: Absolutely delicious, nourishing n refreshing. I had always heard good things about the place, finally got to visit n witness the hype. Transparent food station to understand what n how your food is being made. Tried the Mediterranean bowl and the broccoli for starter . Top notch taste and presentation.

26/04/2025: Our go-to Chinese and possibly the only sit-down Chinese in Clane. Food is really good and always presented really well. Service is top-notch, staff are always friendly and helpful. Pricing is a little steep but still alright.

26/03/2025: Ni hao 👋 Great food and service from Ken and Alex in this tasty Chinese. Book a table for a great night or take away and you won't regret it.
