Treacy's Bar & Restaurant
04/05/2026: Lovely cosy place,but half the place inside was empty and we were waiting standing there like a spa, we waited 15 minutes , them this woma came and told us to wait another 10 😂and there was more empty tables reserved than anything else, you may start prioritizing the customers more lads shocking fair play to Mohamed should let him deal with customers at the door inn
03/05/2026: Always a sure bet for good food

Bovine
Portlaoise
18/01/2026: Nicely decorated restaurants stone walls and ceiling beams,wasn't impressed by the service ! We were waiting 20mins to be even asked for our orders thats criminal !! ,no offer of jug of water or titbits to nibble on as you wait.The food itself was ok the burger is super thin you get 2 on your bun to try make it look decent,the fries were average, also what put me off returning here is the noise of the music blaring I feel like you're competing with the racket playing while trying to have a conversation.
13/01/2026: A but chilly inside but the food was great

Croft Alley
Portlaoise
03/05/2026: As a group of 7 people who booked in, I have to say the food was lovely and the young waitress who served us was lovely. However, when asked by the waitress if we would.like dessert, the owner intrupted and told us we had 18 mins left & would not have time for desert. We then asked our young server for the bill but again the owner appeared and placed the bill on the table within seconds & without any interaction. Needless to say no dessert was ordered.We have never experienced service like this before and I will not be recommending to anyone in the future.
03/05/2026: Had a lovely dinner here last week it was delicious. Had the margarita pizza with nice garlic aoli. The manager gale and staff were really lovely and helpful had nice music in the background . Really recommend this place .. and service a 10/10

Morrisey's
Abbeyleix
04/05/2026: I am 55 years old and I have frequented thousands of pubs in my life, I can say without hesitation that Morrisey's is the best pub that I have ever been in.
The Guinness is lovely (which is usually a good indicator),the pub itself is immaculately clean, the restrooms are elegant and tastefully designed.
the Lady behind the counter (Orla) is more than professional, Orla knew when to engage in conversation and when to leave people alone, she was friendly and welcoming and happy to explain the history of the pub. I 100% recommend popping into this beautiful pub
01/04/2026: Absolutely amazing pub , the Guinness was 10/10 ,very friendly pub , full of history.

Eddie Rocket's
Portlaoise
03/05/2026: The service was excellent. My nachos were very very nice. However the malt milkshakes have gotten VERY small. A large is €6+ and fills only two very small glasses. They aren't as nice as they used to be.
Definitely a once in a while choice of place to eat as it's gotten quite expensive. Cannot fault the restaurant itself at all.
01/04/2026: The food is always delicious, my only complaint is that it takes them a long time to serve food. But the taste of the food always makes up for the wait. Make sure you get an Oreo milkshake,it's worth it.

Jeremiah Grant Bar and Eatery
Portlaoise
16/10/2025: We were visiting family and went there for something to eat. From getting there it felt like we were welcome. We got our table and Danni Kennedy served us. She was very welcoming and friendly. It just felt that she could not do enough for us. The food was excellent and very tasty.
16/10/2025: Went to Jeremiah’s over the weekend, lovely pub with a lovely atmosphere. We got served by Danni who was very friendly and professional, a credit to your business.
Will be returning soon

Kellys Steakhouse
Portlaoise
10/04/2026: Amazing food, steak is spot on everytime. Staff are exceptional
02/04/2026: This is a wonderful place to eat, portions are filling and the quality is outstanding. Take your budget and throw it out the window because you will be spending a pretty penny, but if you have a special occasion or really want to treat yourself it is worth it. The menu has evolved over the years and I am happy to say that I have enjoyed every change.
Staff are wonderful and professional, they really help to craft and facilitate an outstanding experience whatever the occasion.
