Ruby Ellen's Tea Rooms

16/08/2025: The best place I've been for a high Tea! There were so many cakes we had to have a takeaway box. Thank you to the team for a very enjoyable experience. Very friendly, smiling staff.
10/08/2025: Everything was delicious, especially the chowder, very flavorful and creamy.
The baked potato dishes were also very good.
Everything was very good, recommended!

Mckevitts Hotel
Carlingford
27/06/2025: Stayed here on Saturday 21st June 2025. Carlingford itself was busy and the weather was lovely. Rooms were fine and very clean bathroom and shower were perfect. The bed was lovely and comfy.
Had a few drinks in the bar on that night and was very enjoyable. They had music in the bar which was easy listening and the bar staff were very good too.
The only thing I was disappointed at was the breakfast. The menu had a good selection of cooked breakfast but there was no cereal or juice to be seen anywhere. I had the full irish which was lovely but if you only wanted cereal it didn't seem to be available.
One other thing to note was that there is no lift. All the rooms as far as I could see are on the 1st floor, wasn't a problem for us but for anyone incapacitated or wheelchair users this would be difficult.
Overall this is a lovely place to stay, right in the centre of Carlingford. A good base if you wanted to explore the north east of the country. This place is good value for money as the price of hotels in Ireland has got very expensive in the last couple of years.
I would have no problem staying here again.
21/06/2025: Visited for food and drink only, was very good...

Bay Tree
Carlingford
11/06/2025: We booked the Bay Tree for my sister's hen party dinner. The staff couldn't have been more welcoming and friendly. We had the private room at the back which was just perfect, and allowed our group to enjoy each other's company without feeling like we were bothering other customers. The food was also beautiful. Most definitely recommend!
04/06/2025: Absolutely tasty food. Great service and warm atmosphere and cozy interior. There is beautiful masterpieces on the wall, by Irish artists, you could by if desires. We e spend lovely time in this restaurant and had unforgivable dinner. Thanks❤️

Ghan House
Carlingford
20/08/2025: Went here for dinner with my wife in August. Best meal we've had in a while.
Very relaxing pre dinner drink in the bar area while perus the menu.
Then had a very nice meal. Starters of ham hoc terrine and crab creme brulee were fab. Then I had the lamb which was the tastiest and most tender I've ever had. My wife had the fish dish which was a very decent size and she thoroughly enjoyed it.
Very good wine list but unfortunately could only try one as I was driving.
We will most certainly return.
14/07/2025: Beautiful old house on the edge of a very lively town

Fishy Dishy

07/08/2025: They served this absolute abomination they call a full Irish for a ridiculous €13.50. A plate of misery.
16/07/2025: Had dinner at Fishy Dishy on Saturday evening. Absolutely fabulous food, service and ambience. Thank you

Carlingford Arms
Carlingford
06/08/2025: Nice clean place and lovely staff
21/07/2025: This restaurant is very hit and miss. Staff can be extremely rude. Food is okay on occasion. To be honest ill not be taking the risk of going back especially after the experience my daughter had here, her and her partner were made to feel an inconvenience as paying customers.

Wildwood Café
Carlingford
29/06/2025: This place was recommended to us and it did not disappoint, the toastys are like nothing we had eaten before! My kids can be hard to please, but they really loved the food! It's Run by nice people and it's a cool place! Remember everyone, it's street food! Don't go there expecting Michelin Star table Service! Just good quality grub on the street!
22/06/2025: Stopped off and had an absolutely smashing Chicken Cluck toastie and dip. Savage

Riina's
Carlingford
06/05/2025: My son: "I am 8 and this is the best Restaurant ever."
06/05/2025: I honestly think it is the best fish and meat restaurant in Ireland, even comparable to one of the best in Europe.
The restaurant has a full menu that includes appetizers, pasta, pizzas,
and fine wines.
It is important to book the table in advance

Ma Bakers
Carlingford
10/07/2025: Had a family holiday in Carlingford and went here a few times. I love the place. Had good music and it. Just a good old school pub
01/07/2025: Not only are their pints €7 but they don't serve food anymore and get mad if you bring food in from a local store.
We were eating food outside on benches in their courtyard with nobody around and we had bought a couple expensive pints, we were then told food isnt allowed... But they don't serve food ... But they advertise they have food... But they don't serve food.
Terrible. Just go to PJ O'Rourkes next door.

Juniors Bar Carlingford
Carlingford
29/07/2025: It is a nice quiet restaurant & pub. I rarely go there, general during weekdays and it is always very silent. They have some live music nights but I didn't get the chance yet.
18/05/2025: The pulled pork spring rolls were to die for. The fish was sooo fresh and it's brilliant to get proper chips for a change. Staff were brilliant. Well done

ROMA TAKE AWAY, CARLINGFORD, CO.LOUTH
Carlingford
14/06/2025: Got a family dinner there. It was a quick visit. Place was clean and tidy and food was grand and service was quick.
05/06/2025: I mistakenly ordered the wrong pizza and Roma's made a mistake with the other pizza. I agreed with the lady on the phone to call back for one replacement pizza. When i returned the 'boss' came out and put me over the order again and said 'give me my pizza...where is the pizza?' I explained that the kids already started to eat it but the vegetarian in the family has no pizza. The cashier chimed in...'so you ate the pizza?' I said..."this is just not worth it". A very rude man. I live locally and it'll be the last time I step foot in Roma's. I like to promote the area and the establishments but that behaviour is ridiculous. I ordered a pizza down the street in Feeley's. A great place with decent staff AND THE PIZZA WAS FAB!
