The best restaurants in Kildare

21/08/2026: best crepes by Titiksha and Sasha and a lovely coffee from Cristi! thank you so much and i ll be back!

12/08/2026: Excellent iced coffee with great staff!!!

04/06/2026: I can't say enough about our experience at Silken Thomas. The owners are clearly treating their staff well, because it shows in how the staff treat the clients. Everyone from Reception, to the Bar, to the Restaurant (for both dinner and breakfast), to the person who showed us to our room, had a smile on their face and looked happy to be there. We felt well taken care of and everything we ate was delicious. We both loved the location and the recent redo, especially the shower. Special shout out to the lovely room cleaners and management who went the extra-mile to not only reach out to me to let me know I'd left a t-shirt behind on the bed, but also posted it to me in Dublin. My offer to reimburse them for the postage fell on deaf ears. The t-shirt has an illustration of a dearly departed pet on it and means an enormous amount to me, so I'll never forget Silken Thomas's kindness. Aces from top to bottom.

19/05/2026: Amazing room, great staff. Second time staying and will stay again in the future.

09/08/2026: Sunday Dinner Roast Beef Devine Fish & chips unreal

08/08/2026: Just a lovely Pub with great food , Staff are kind and polite. If your in the locations it's a must.

08/08/2026: I was in the coffee Bar today, only to ask the barista if the bus stop was the one for Dublin Airport. Yes she told me, then proceeded to follow me out of The Coffee Bar to show me the app on her phone confirming our bus was on route. This act of kindness was so welcome & reassuring to anxious me & my post operation, in discomfort friend. I hope your manager knows what a treasure you are 🥰. I returned, after my friend was safely on her bus & bought an excellent coffee & sweet treat. Random acts of kindness along with great coffee will have me back. Thank you 😊.

04/08/2026: Come here nearly every week amazing coffee we go for a cycle around Kildare town and it’s a nice pit stop!!

01/08/2026: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you’re looking for some of the best chicken wings, this is the place. The wings are consistently delicious, generously sized, and always cooked perfectly. My go-to order is the lemon pepper and honey garlic wings with a side of ranch—you really can’t go wrong. The fries are great, the drinks are solid, and the atmosphere is exactly what you’d want from a neighborhood pub: relaxed & welcoming. It’s a bit of a drive if you’re coming from central Montreal, but it’s absolutely worth making the trip to Saint-Anne-de-Bellevue. The location right on the main street makes it a great spot to grab dinner and enjoy a walk afterward. This is my go-to place whenever I feel like treating myself to a cheat meal, and it has never disappointed. Highly recommend!

26/07/2026: Bad service, we waited for all and main Fisher 30 minutes. The restaurant was not full….. first and last time ever

16/07/2025: What a true fantastic pub! Loved it and loved the atmosphere. Will definitely be back!

26/06/2025: Popped into JB Mahoney recently and honestly, what a find. It’s got that rare mix of proper character and a genuinely warm atmosphere that makes you feel like a regular, even if it’s your first visit. The Guinness? Spot on, creamy, smooth, poured with care. You can tell they take pride in it, which is more than you can say for a lot of places. And if you haven’t tried the Algerian, you’re missing out – bold, rich, and absolutely delicious. A proper pint to remember. The bar staff are brilliant, friendly, funny, and somehow manage to keep everything running smoothly even when it's packed. Even, the teachers chap I was speaking to inside. JB Mahoney’s strikes that perfect balance: welcoming, down-to-earth, but with real quality behind the bar. Whether you're in for a quiet one or a few rounds with mates, this place just gets it right.

10/11/2025: Great to see a restaurant of this standard in Kildare. With the Hangman’s closed, we’ve been short of somewhere special locally, and O’Dooles has definitely stepped up. It’s a proper night-out spot – not just a pub meal. We had a group of 15 last night and everything was excellent. Service was friendly and attentive without being over the top, the atmosphere was relaxed, and the place is spotless. The wine list is well chosen and fairly priced, drinks looked great, and the food was full of flavour across all courses. We also had a coeliac with us and the kitchen handled it perfectly – clear communication, careful preparation, and a gluten-free starter made fresh, which was very much appreciated. It’s great to have somewhere like this on our doorstep in Kildare. Highly recommended and we’ll definitely be back.

07/11/2025: We had a really lovely experience in O'Dooles restaurant for my brother’s birthday. The staff were fantastic and the food was amazing from start to finish. Great cocktail menu and lovely bar area for a pre dinner drink. Margarita was fab. The prawn starter was delish and the chickpea fritter to start was exceptional. Everyone enjoyed the main courses the Seabass for me was perfect and so flavorsome and my brother was very happy with the Veal chop. Desserts were great and the Cheeseboard - we are all still thinking about it! Great atmosphere in the restaurant. We can’t wait to go back. Thanks again to all the team at O’Dooles!

04/08/2026: A lovely local coffee shop, warm and friendly atmosphere and plenty of light bite options to keep you going!

29/07/2026: Lovely little gem of a cafe. Their capuccino, iced latte, and brunch options are consistently delicious. Their service is even better. They made our parents feel welcome too. Would recommend to everyone.

30/08/2026: 10/10 experience . Food was amazing and service was unreal . The girl serving me , Cindy was her name was so kind and helpful . Really recommend

15/08/2026: My Daughter recommended we eat there and the food was amazing, the staff member Shania could not have been nicer and so helpful even though it was near closing time we did not feel rushed we will definately return. Wish there was one of these restaurants near us but it was worth the 2.5 hour drive.

29/07/2026: Delicious food every time we are there, served quick by great people! Specially waitress Marta, Thank you! Recommend this restaurant for families, couples and everyone! 😊

27/07/2026: Fabulous range of dishes to suit all dietary requirements. Fast attentive service. Jordan was very professional and friendly and incredibly helpful with menu options for my requirements.

22/08/2026: Our Staff had a bit of attitude when asked a question. Also tried correcting me. Not a bit friendly even though We tried to be. I know we all have an off say but a bit off putting.

16/08/2026: Just perfect. The quality of the food and resulting flavours were exceptional. I’d happily drive a long way to repeat the experience.

23/05/2026: What a job they've done outside. Safe comfortable environment and great atmosphere. Welll done all!
