The best restaurants in Kilkenny

22/06/2025: Sister had day two of wedding in beer garden .we had great night with great music.bar man was one ignorant man.daughter asked for hit water to heat a baby bottle to be told .this is not a café its a bar.i asked for two drinks just before they finishen 10.55 he refused me.told me im looking at you for another hour.how he still working there with his bad attitude is beyond me.pity because its a fine pub.

24/05/2025: Very ignorant, power tripping, condescending male manager/owner in the back beer garden when approaching paying complying customers. There is a way to talk to people but small man syndrome is an awful thing. plenty pubs In Kk, avoid here

21/09/2025: The food was fresh and tasty, the place was so clean and the staff were super friendly.

21/09/2025: We were a family of five and ordered a party bucket. Everything was so delicious. We got some cookies and sundaes for dessert. The place looked very clean, and the staff was so helpful and polite. Will be back soon!

10/09/2025: (Traducido por Google) Si eres italiano, no vengas aquí. (Original) If you are Italian, don't come here.

03/09/2025: We ordered a family takeaway for something different. The delivery time stated 35 mins which seemed fine so we decided to go with her. After 100mins and a starving family, I decided to ring the takeaway. I was met with an awful ignorant man on the phone who didn't seem to care how long I was waiting. He kept saying "food is on the way" like an unsympathetic robot. A dog of a man. The food arrived after 110mins. The poor 2 and a half year old nearly ate the paper bag holding the food as I walked in to find plates. To be honest the paper bag was the most edible and best looking part of the greesy slop. The portion of curry had turned to chunks, there were a lot of chips in the portion but you would be doing well to stomach 3 chips. The burgers were cold and the kebabs looked as if the delivery driver towed them behind his car. Avoid this dump at all costs. I wouldn't eat this again if I was giving the slop for free and it was instantly teleported to me. I have lost hours waiting for and eating this muck.

16/08/2025: Poor spice box little to no veg and chicken

25/06/2025: We ordered the munch box and it was really good. simple yet the ingredients are fresh and the flavor was really nice. Best paired with some beers for a really nice movie night ❤️

18/09/2025: Food was wonderful, the staff were lovely and the restaurant background music was quiet enough to chat easily. I would highly recommend.

14/09/2025: Waited with my girlfriend and her friend for 15 minutes being ignored by a pretend barstaff . The guy at reception was reasonable and did make an effort but the other cretin behind the bar should be shot. The asian guy tried in fairness and i wouldn't blame him

20/09/2025: Bossman gave me free garluc sauce big up kebabish ❤️🥹

01/09/2025: Got burgers, kebabs, and pizza for a big group. All really tasty

06/06/2025: Never eaten but I know it will be good

12/01/2025: The staff defends assaulters and scrutinises victims the one who defends assaulters will be shamed. Check your staff.

24/07/2025: Absolutely blown away by the cake Quigley’s made for my wife’s birthday! It looked stunning, tasted incredible, and was a real showstopper at the party. Everyone was asking where we got it from and my wife couldn’t have been happier! What made it even better was how quick and easy their online ordering service was. Simple to navigate, great communication, and everything was ready exactly as promised. Massive thanks to the whole team at Quigley’s for making the day extra special. We’ll definitely be ordering again for the next occasion! 🎂👏

02/07/2025: Excellent soda bread! Came in for a bowl of soup (also very nice) and liked the bread so much we got a loaf for home. The innner covered courtyard is really nice as well.

20/05/2025: Was there at avent took 15 minutes together a drink even though I ordered people getting served before me had to call the girl behind the bar again said I was here first still left waiting

02/07/2025: Ordered delivery food got the wrong order rang to come back and change they wouldnt wanted me to drive back with the food to make sure it was wrong tried to reorder so they could exchange the food kept cancelling me order ended up having to order from another Chinese and pay out more money shockin service

05/08/2025: Estábamos alojados en un camping local y llegamos a la ciudad de Kilkenny para algo útil después de un día entero de turismo. Éramos 2 familias de 4 adultos y 3 niños. . La comida era muy buena, superó las expectativas. Yo tenía el Fish and Chips y Fish era realmente crujiente rebozado y esponjoso bacalao ligero. Las patatas fritas eran tan buenas también - patatas fritas verdaderas pero sabía extra fresco! Nuestro grupo también tuvo la Vegas aplastante hamburguesa y suero de mantequilla crujiente hamburguesas de pollo - todos dijeron muy jugoso y sabroso. Los niños tenían el pescado, y 2 tenían los perros de maíz también - estos fueron un gran éxito! Siento mucho no haber tenido fotos - la comida no estaba en los platos el tiempo suficiente! La decoración era realmente genial y creo que nunca he estado en ningún lugar antes donde me di cuenta de lo brillantemente limpio que estaba todo - incluyendo los baños. La camarera también era muy agradable, servicio rápido, muy servicial, la comida servida rápidamente. IT fue tan agradable que paramos en nuestro camino a casa en Dublín unos días después. Una vez más 5 / 5 no podía faltar nada. Muy recomendable.

21/07/2025: Always friendly fast service and great food

19/08/2025: After a day strolling around Kilkenny, the perfect ending: a great pub where you can eat and drink away from the hustle and bustle. Draught beer, Shepherd's Pie, and a friendly atmosphere make this a perfect place to dine in Kilkenny. P.S. The Italian girl serving was very kind and precise in describing the dishes! Good job!

06/07/2025: its too expensive for a personal pizza

12/06/2025: I'd eat it but I won't be telling people I ate it except for the fact I'm reviewing it. I. Only reviewing it because Google insists. I can say Domino's is fast and efficient in their ordering systems and cook times. They do have that done to an art form, they have just left flavour in the history books.

25/07/2025: Mi hijo tiene enfermedad celíaca, así que tenemos mucho cuidado con evitar el gluten. Pedimos en este restaurante dos veces y seleccionamos sus opciones sin gluten en ambas ocasiones. Desafortunadamente, mi hijo se enfermó mucho después de comer en ambas ocasiones. Después del primer pedido, me puse en contacto con el restaurante y me dijeron que como otros platos en el pedido no eran gluten - libre, cruzado - puede haber ocurrido contaminación. Eso fue preocupante, pero les dimos otra oportunidad, esta vez pidiendo solo gluten, artículos gratis. Lamentablemente, mi hijo todavía se enfermó. Volví a contactar con el restaurante después del segundo incidente, pero no pude obtener una explicación clara de lo que salió mal. Basado en nuestra experiencia, no creo que este restaurante pueda acomodar de forma segura a aquellos con enfermedad celíaca. Estoy compartiendo esto para advertir a otros y espero que el restaurante tome medidas para mejorar su manejo de alimentos y la capacitación del personal.

06/07/2025: The last two times I have gotten a takeaway and on both occasions it was horrible especially the rice you could tell it 2as in the box for quite some time never use them again

20/07/2025: Ordered on delivero, missed the call, owners got very saucey on the phone. Not worth the hassle.

06/07/2025: Always come back for my favorite doner kebab box
