09/02/2025: Nicest pint and pub in kilkenny . The best Guinness in Ireland

19/01/2025: AMAZING STOUT!!!!!Lovely pub was in it last week.. the Guinness is 10/10, you could eat it with a fork.. met an old man called Cyril at the bar a blocklayer by trade and he was a gentleman to talk to. Another man had his cockapoo sitting beside him at the bar and such a well trained dog.lovely to see and all the customers knew this dog by name “dink” a local celebrity by all accounts.. definitely be back for that pint of absolute cream and the homeliness felt at the bar!!

24/03/2025: Michael is an amazing bartender and an even better story teller and singer. Very friendly and welcoming. It's an amazing bar and I'll definitely be visiting again

08/03/2025: This is a gem with magic atmosphere!

08/03/2025: Comemos aquí con la familia. La comida, el personal y la decoración era fantástico. Era una noche tranquila de domingo, así que tuvieron tiempo para estar atentos, y ciertamente lo estaban. Las porciones , pasta , pizza y en mi caso deliciosos Raviolis de Espinacas (regados con un rojo de casa muy agradable ) eran más que adecuados. Mis nietos optaron por llevar las pizzas y esto no fue un problema para ellos. La cuenta era muy razonable para un partido de seis y sin duda volveré en mi próxima visita a KK. ¡Grazie!

20/02/2025: Servicio sin la sonrisa. Cuatro de nosotros decidimos espontáneamente salir a cenar el miércoles por la noche. Italian Connection fue acordado y otros sugeridos en el caso de no poder conseguir una mesa sin reserva. Al entrar en el restaurante nos encontramos con un miembro del personal de marca que supuse por el acento era italiano. Pregunté si era posible conseguir una mesa para cuatro... .. así que aquí es donde comienza la comunicación de una sílaba... ¿reserva? A lo que respondí que no, siento que haya sido una decisión espontánea. ¡Señaló la mesa y declaró allí! Durante toda la noche nos sirvieron simplemente comida y bebidas... ¡Tuve que pedir un menú de bebidas! En ningún momento preguntamos si todo estaba bien. Sin compromiso sin despedida sin gracias. Simplemente grosero y no quería estar allí desde mi perspectiva. La comida era hermosa y disfrutamos de la comida, pero este tipo necesita mejorar su habilidad o elegir una carrera en un entorno no orientado al cliente. He organizado fiestas navideñas de oficina antes en este restaurante y el personal era encantador e incluso contemplé tener a mis hijos confirmación aquí en abril para 32 asientos. Ahora me alegro de haberle permitido su elección de restaurante con familia como si este fuera el servicio que me prestaron me horrorizaría. Afortunadamente, la joven en la caja era cálida y agradable y mi marido dio propinas basadas en sus modales agradables. El otro caballero ni siquiera dijo gracias o adiós. Me temo que no es lo suficientemente bueno en el mercado actual.

04/02/2025: Downgraded from our booked suite due to it "being on an adult only floor of the hotel" (the website states this nowhere), still charged the suite price though for a family double!? Food is below average, do yourself a favor and skip breakfast. A child vomited in the pool beside us and no attempt was made by staff to clean it up, I felt sorry for others who didn't witness it but then jumped headfirst into it :( Pool / spa are awful dirty, none of the changing room locker doors work. If you like well worn you'll be happy out. We won't be back.

04/02/2025: Had a brilliant time here with small children. Fantastic fun for families. Hotel can be busy with small children and families. Booking is required for the pool, dining and dinosaur bounce in the Dino Park. Food was very nice, rooms were clean and comfortable. The staff from room service to bar men, reception and dining staff were all extremely helpful. Hope to return soon

23/09/2024: Fui aquí a cenar y tomé sopa del día que era de puerro y patatas y para principal tuve pollo. No se molestó con el postre. Realmente disfruté de la comida. El personal es encantador. El servicio es rápido y el lugar está muy limpio. También hay un ambiente relajante encantador allí. Está a solo unos minutos a pie del centro de la ciudad de Kilkenny. Lo recomendaría a cualquiera y volvería a ir de nuevo.

21/09/2024: Such a warm.welcome.and great food in this family run restaurant.
