The best restaurants in Mayo

03/08/2026: Beautiful views from the outdoor area, great food and pints of Guinness

02/08/2026: Great spot at the foot of Croagh Patrick, pints were good. Great atmosphere on a Saturday evening of August bank Holiday weekend. I suppose Mayo winning Sam helped but as a Kerryman it was great to hear the banter.

05/08/2026: Couldn’t rate this place highly enough - wonderful staff looked after us and were so kind and helpful 🤗 shout out to #heather who is a pure legend 💕we love you heather 😌

27/07/2026: Atmosphere was good and service too. Food was just alright

17/07/2026: It was a nice little cafe for a good simple lunch. Fun options but they were out of potatoes.

02/10/2026: Classic Indian food .Top quality

05/09/2026: Beware, side rice costs an extra €3.50. You only get the pot of meat and sauce. I've never experienced this before. The prices on the flyer are for takeaway only. Eating in is significantly more expensive. The food itself is good and tasty, but instead of around €12 as advertised on the flyer, it costs about €20 with rice when you eat in.

07/06/2026: Traveled through the West of Ireland and when I arrived in Ballina, I walked around town in the evening. Asked around for trad and got told to go to Rouse's. Went in for just a pint, left 4 hours later. Everybody was very friendly, I loved the atmosphere, had great chats and even got invited to sing. It felt very communal and like most knew each other - but I still felt very much included. Had one of the best nights I've had in Ireland so far. Thanks so much!

30/05/2026: What can I say its a fabulous pub very well kept great staff ie owner super clean well worth a visit i loved it ps a great pint of Guinness

17/08/2025: Didn't eatxany food, but the people were friendly and attentive. Just had a few beers.

29/05/2025: Good local pub with friendly staff

20/07/2026: VERY UNFRIENDLY SERVICE BUT GOOD FOOD Our food was great, they only had 3 waffles between 2 of us (usually 4) but it was still plenty and a great portion , as for the service, the African lady, not sure of her name, served us and was very friendly when we first came in but as soon as we sat down her attitude completely changed and to be quite honest she was the rudest waitress I’ve ever dealt with. My boyfriend asked if they had coke, she looked at him as if he had 3 heads, and very abruptly said NO , she also done this when I asked if they had hash browns. We ALSO heard her do this to an elderly lady who asked for some strawberry jam, she also was clearly very unhappy with how she was spoken to. The table hadn’t been cleaned down before us either as it was sticky and the cutlery was dirty, this also should have been checked by floor staff. Again, food was absolutely lovely and the girl that came out from the kitchen to tell us about the shortage of waffles was very kind and friendly but this waitress needs to learn some basic manners and change her attitude to make people feel welcome. Completely ruined our experience as we had heard it was a lovely spot to stop off on our way back from Ballaghaderreen.

23/05/2026: Great little café and not to dear.

18/08/2026: Mediocre food - lamb jalfrezi was not spicy / hot for me . Good nan bread . Same as the rest of Indian restaurants in Ireland , cook better at home

16/08/2026: Recently went to The Everest Nepalese Restaurant in Ballina and had a good experience. We tried the Butter Chicken, Everest Special, butter naan, kids meals and a few other items from the menu that I can’t recall the names. The food was tasty, portions were good, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. If you're Asian or looking for food that suits an Asian taste palate, this is a nice place to try in Ballina.

08/09/2026: Lovely family friendly outdoor spot! (Also some indoor tables!) kids love the playground, great atmosphere!

30/08/2026: Delicious! We had the classic burgers and truffle fries, they were succulent and the fries were amazing, we also had the mac and cheese bites, again, wow! It wasn't our first time there and it wont be the last.

14/09/2026: Alright, I didn't liked chicken though, but maybe it's just preference

17/08/2026: Supermarket.. can buy all groceries here. Post Office inside here too & small area to have tea or coffee. Can buy alcohol, toiletries, frozen & fresh foods.They have a fresh bakery section too. Also alcohol free drinks. You can get currency exchange at the post office here.

03/10/2026: I was peacefully sharting on the toilet when a crocodile crawled out and but me on the ass. I had to get 12 stitches and no staff would help me.i am absolutely fuming!!! Disgraceful. 🤬😡

22/09/2026: Service was rather slow and it not being busy

23/08/2026: Stayed a night in this hotel for the country night myself and my wife. The staff are so helpful, welcoming and friendly, bar staff really good and Greta at the reception was number 1 for us, we will definitely be back again, highly recommend this hotel

17/07/2026: I stayed here in June 26, I wasn’t expecting anything special as is 3 stars however I was very pleasantly surprised. The room was lovely, done really well, bathroom was spacious and well kept. It’s in a great location only a short walk from the town centre, and the staff were lovely. I didn’t eat so I can’t say what the food was like. I’m writing this as I stay in the Ellison which is close by, I can say that you guys have nailed it and is way better than where I am now

27/07/2026: They need to update their opening hours, drove here especially to eat and they were closed despite their opening hours showing as being open.

04/07/2026: Highly recommended. Very delicious food, great taste. Service was beautiful. My cousin forgot her debit card, they saved it for her. Many thanks from the three old ladies from Germany.

30/06/2026: The hotel staff were so welcoming and nothing was too much trouble to each and everyone of them,, the location was perfect right on the edge of town ,,the bedrooms were very comfortable and the decor was really nice attention to detail was excellent we will be back.

11/06/2026: Beautiful food. Attentive staff.

29/09/2026: very nice workers, and tasty food

25/09/2026: Food was very good, I ordered burrito with beef and some toppings. Beef was super tended and tasty. Size was very fair for the price and as big guy I rarely get my fill while with one burrito for 18€(I got quite few toppings hence price increase) I was full, which is good deal in this economy. Staff was quick and organised and as for atmosphere I was just for pickup but with quick glance it looked cozy inside.
