The best restaurants in Limerick

15/06/2025: One has to give credit when credit is due. And everyone deserves to try out Dolan's pub in Limerick. Old charm, great service and fantastic food. And if you happen to be there for a music session...wow. The "in place" to be seen in Limerick

11/06/2025: A really cosy Irish pub, I like it and good luck, keep it up, it's great that you exist 💖

15/06/2025: Lovely place with delicious food that gets even better with the amazing staff they have over there.

08/06/2025: If you enjoy being mocked with your coffee, this is the place! I visited with my son, who was quietly playing chess, and we ordered food—spending over €30. Unfortunately, the music was so loud we couldn't even hear each other across the table—you wouldn’t get music that loud in some pubs! I politely asked if it could be turned down, as it was just 25 minutes until closing. The response was incredibly unprofessional: the staff member looked at her watch, laughed, and then shared the moment with a colleague, continuing to laugh about it. While the coffee was lovely and the young man who served us on arrival was kind and welcoming, the attitude from the female staff was disappointing and unwelcoming. I didn’t appreciate being made to feel so uncomfortable for making a reasonable request. Sadly, this experience means I’ll be choosing another coffee shop in the future.

11/06/2025: Really great vibes. Pizza was good but could have more flavour. It’s the atmosphere that does it for this place.

01/06/2025: A great local pub with really lovely staff. They always play good music which adds to the relaxed atmosphere. It's perfect for a quiet pint or for groups. The back area is brilliant for functions and you can't go wrong with the pizza. A great Limerick pub!

06/06/2025: We were here last year while on a trip to Ireland and I should have written this review sooner, but I just wanted to say we really enjoyed their gluten free fish & chips and cottage pie! Yum! Also the atmosphere here was very nice and just what you'd expect from a proper old time Irish pub.

20/05/2025: Great bar People very friendly Guinness was very good too

09/06/2025: Had a beautiful lunch here. The vegetarian platter was made to suit our choices - beautifully presented - so fresh and tasty. The staff were so friendly too - we couldn't have asked for anything better after exploring the city on our day trip. Simple food with great flavours!

26/05/2025: We were looking for somewhere for dinner on a quiet Monday night in Limerick but didn't fancy a typical burger or chicken establishment. We found this restaurant on Google maps and decided to give it a try. It was quiet so the service was great. The food was incredible! I would highly recommend the mezze.

22/06/2025: Nice place for breakfast and coffee is good

08/06/2025: Lovely Food & Very Friendly Staff.

22/06/2025: Great full Irish breakfast prepared within minutes! Super tasty and fulfilling, 12.95 eur. Including coffee which quality exceeded my expectations. It was rainy sunday in limerick but this food definitely made my day. Also the staff was lovely, especially the guy who was very quick and welcoming. Cudos to the chef, we really loved the food here. They were almost full which is always a good sign. Definitely recommending having breakfast here, they had many options.

22/06/2025: We arrived before opening time and we were welcomed in out of the rain. Had the best breakfast within minutes and the kids said it was the best meal over the weekend away. We had a club sandwich , eggs Benedict and crepes all 10 out of 10 Thank you

06/06/2025: Stupendous selection of Irish whiskey, from a majority of very reasonable, normal prices to a selection of rarer bottles too. Many discoveries to be made.

10/05/2025: Straight after moving to Limerick, Ireland, Mother Mac's have made me feel like this is home. The beer selection is second to none, with rotating taps celebrating local and national beers, and a fantastic selection of local beers. The staff however are the cherry on top. So wonderful, friendly and full of recommendations and advice, they really make the pub what it is. Sláinte!

17/06/2025: Irish pub food done well. Wonderful staff, seating galore for any size party, including a set of picnic table across the street.

14/06/2025: Great music, atmosphere and service - Taylor was particularly helpful and kindly looked after us. Definitely recommend!

20/05/2025: Terrific little cafe. Had breakfast here. Food and coffee was great

10/04/2025: Unfortunately they don’t serve waffles anymore at all. Which is why we went there. But the scones and other food are good. I do wish A Lot that they served waffles even one day a week as I have not found anywhere in Ireland that serves decent American style waffles

05/06/2025: We visited Cornstore, for the first time, to celebrate my boyfriend’s birthday, and unfortunately, our experience was far from what we had hoped for. From the very beginning, the service was deeply disappointing and unwelcoming. One staff member in particular, D…, was remarkably unprofessional and discourteous. When we inquired about a specific dish we had seen featured in multiple photos and videos on Cornstore’s official Instagram account, D… responded with an unnecessarily aggressive tone, stating — quite shockingly — that he could “swear to God” that such a dish had never been on the menu. This statement was not only inappropriate but directly contradicted the restaurant’s own promotional materials, making the experience feel misleading and verging on false advertising. We had arrived with the intention of enjoying a full evening: starters, main courses, desserts, and wine. However, due to the unfriendly and dismissive manner in which we were treated, we felt deeply uncomfortable and considered leaving shortly after being seated. This was meant to be a joyful celebration, but the attitude of the staff — particularly D… — completely overshadowed any potential the evening had. Sadly, I cannot recommend Cornstore to others. The service does not match the image portrayed online, and the overall experience did not live up to the reputation the establishment seems to enjoy.

02/06/2025: Good food, friendly service, normal prices. Really recommended

03/06/2025: Best brunch spot for all of our special occasions! The best food in town

01/06/2025: Lovely birthday breakfast treat with my daughter

22/06/2025: Great pint of Guinness lovely Irish pub

13/06/2025: Great pint here love it, super atmosphere 👌

23/05/2025: My first visit to Ireland and it's been a great time so far. My friends and I wanted to find a great, local restaurant and we found Freddys! The food was delicious and the service was friendly and professional. Exposed stones and low lighting created a cozy atmosphere. We had the opportunity to meet the owner, Freddy, who was an absolute delight! If I ever find my way back to Limerick, I will surely find my way back to Freddys.

22/05/2025: Staff are friendly, great service. The food was delicious and a lovely atmosphere there. Met the owner and I think it’s always a good sign when the owner is working amount the staff supporting service. I always try to get a booking while in Limerick - one of the nicest restaurants in Limerick

17/06/2025: Just popped in for a pint of Guinness as it was recommended as a nice pub. The inside of this place is stunning. They were serving meals (was a Sunday and roast beef looked a winner) from a hot counter. Looked amazing but didn’t have time to eat here. Hopefully next time.

16/06/2025: Just went in for a pint. It was very loud.
