The best restaurants in Kildare

25/09/2026: Lovely place to grab a snack and a cuppa. Gorgeous veiw while eating too

25/09/2026: Lovely staff, great atmosphere,

18/08/2026: I ordered through the app and unfortunately received the wrong pizza by mistake. I phoned to explain the situation and spoke with Magda, who was absolutely amazing. She was extremely helpful, friendly and genuinely apologetic, and sorted everything out for me straight away. Probably some of the best customer service I’ve ever experienced! 😊 Thank you so much, Magda — you’re a credit to the team! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

27/07/2026: Ordered on online pizza and chicken wings, went to collect said my order was ready but no chicken wings only pizza had to wait for them to be cooked bad customer service

17/09/2026: Small and intimate and warm. Friendly and quick service, I really enjoyed the muffin

19/08/2026: Always great atmosphere from good music and friendly staff whenever I visited this place

02/09/2026: An impressive collection of iconic fashion pieces from world-famous stars...it must have cost a fortune to put the exhibition together.

30/08/2026: Beautiful shop and restaurant. My friend left some bought items behind and they have been good enough yo hold onto them until we can collect. Very friendly staff

07/06/2026: Well appointed rooms. Friendly staff

04/06/2026: Delightful venue, amazing scones, sterling atmosphere

27/08/2026: Super vegetarian Maynooth. Warning: the food is slightly spicy, so those sensitive to chili may find it a bit risky.

17/07/2026: The best food in town! I was in Maynooth for a few days and I had some problems finding veg-friendly options... I found a place friendlier than I could ever hope for! Nidhi's cuisine is fantastic. I trusted her with all of the meals I had at the Beetroot café (that's because I didn't know what kind of food was behind the Indian names!) and I'd sincerely advise you to do the same. The place is so welcoming you end up feeling you're at someone's house. In the photos you can see a potato paratha, a dosa, and the last one is a paneer veg korma curry with hariyali pulav for takeaway (please correct me if I'm wrong). Even if you're in Dublin, it is worth it to take a train, enjoy a nice day in Maynooth and an even nicer meal at the Beetroot café!

02/09/2026: From the staff to the food and for the pint in Kildare you can not pass the village Inn

06/09/2026: Went here with my girlfriend for our one month anniversary. Our waitress was the most lovely person, really made our night. She even had a heart drawn in our sticky toffee pudding 🥹. The food was also exceptional! Really a great experience, we WILL be coming back...

28/08/2026: Food is good but the Brownie was not good, it was very hard and fresh at all.

26/08/2026: Lovely food. Courteous staff. Moderate prices.

03/08/2026: Really disappointing experience today. My 10-year-old daughter and I drove 30 minutes to visit after seeing on Google that Hey Darling was open until 4:00pm on the Bank Holiday Monday (although it does mention that opening hours may differ). When we arrived there were still plenty of customers waiting for food, so we stood for a few minutes reading the menu together and deciding what to order. As I approached the counter, the staff member said, “Sorry, we literally just stopped taking food orders. We’re only serving drinks.” I asked if she was serious and whether they could take us as the last food order. She replied “No” in a sing-song voice with a big strained smile. After she said no, I looked at my watch and it was only 2:29pm, which means we had actually arrived a few minutes earlier. Refusing to take our order before the advertised last food order time was incredibly disappointing. What upset me most wasn’t just that we couldn’t order food—it was the lack of customer service and common courtesy. We had made a special 30-minute journey, arrived before 2:30pm, and there were still food orders being prepared. It wouldn’t have taken much to show a little flexibility and take one final order. Instead, my daughter and I left feeling embarrassed and unwelcome. Sadly, the customer service completely overshadowed what we’d been looking forward to.

03/08/2026: Food is superb. However staff is always grumpy. Every time we come in, they seem to hate their job. I get that sometimes you can be in a worse mood but this happens every single time. No smiles. Can get quite loud in peak times. But still - their food is great and coffee is not bad either.
