The best restaurants in Mayo

08/04/2026: Terrific hotel in central Westport. Every staff person was over the top friendly and helpful. Comfortable rooms with great bedding. The shower was the best ever! Instant hot water and tons of pressure.

26/03/2026: Good food, good service, worth a visit

24/03/2026: Fantastic restaurant great food great service fantastic staff will be back ..

19/04/2026: Beautiful home made food. Authentic Irish cottage

05/04/2026: Just had such a pleasant stay here over easter weekend! The staff was so friendly and helped us to our room as soon as we arrived. The room was clean and calm (4 person female dorm). The pub was super cute and cozy with live music and a fire place and the communal kitchen was also clean and nice to use. Breakfast was also very nice with gluten free and vegan options. The only bummer was that the hostel is located in a super remote area and the restaurant wasn’t open so getting food was a little difficult since we only had bikes. If you had a car though you’d be totally fine and it was beautiful! The rooms also got a little chilly in the morning.

23/03/2026: Fancy a peaceful stay in a historical home with modern amenities? This is the place for you! My brother and I had the pleasure of staying here on our last evening of a week long road trip before heading back to Dublin. From the minute we entered we were met with warmth from both the fireplace and the reception staff. We received a quick tour of the home and not only were we pleased with the second fireplace in the lounge area but were additionally ecstatic at the pub found in the rear of the house with a pool table and spacious outdoor seating area. Our room was gorgeous and beds super comfortable. Finally, the continental breakfast the next morning was a perfect start to our day. The staff here are very personable and keen to help you during your stay, I was very appreciative of their warm welcome to achill island and their food recommendations for the area. Thank you Valley House team for such a wonderful and memorable stay! I hope to return again someday!

13/04/2026: Top service and the food was incredible.

29/03/2026: Food was lovely especially the Lamb shank. Service was terrible, there was a basket with bread taken from my table and I wasn't even fishished with it, it was just swiped by a younger member of staff. There was a younger woman with glasses she was very helpful and professional and another older woman whom was doing the bar . It was those two women whom were carrying the staff.

30/04/2026: The country's typical flood of screens... Oh well...

19/04/2026: Since we were in Ballina on Sunday, Many eating places were closed. We walked across the River Moy bridge to the Cot and Cobble. We were seated right away and our drink order was taken. The food was excellent. It is a big establishment with lots of tables.

27/04/2026: Great little cafe, we had a delicious breakfast, really good service and although we had two small dogs with us, they had an outside covered area with tables where you can sit and eat with your dogs. They even brought out some chicken treats for the dogs, would highly recommend! Empty breakfast plates as you can see 😂 and Happy Dogs 🐕!

30/03/2026: The service was excellent; they were friendly and very professional. The food was very good: the pasta was perfectly cooked with a flavorful sauce, the salmon salad was very satisfying, and the desserts were outstanding. I will definitely return to try more dishes from this great kitchen.

28/03/2026: Anytime I'm passing within 20minutes of Claremorris I will divert to stop here for food. An absolute gem! Fantastic food, amazing value and so worth a visit!

23/10/2025: We ate there last night. I couldn't recommend highly enough. We were a party of 3, we had the 1 Anthony Heffernan Medallion beef, 2. Butter Fried Wild Atlantic Sea Bream Served with Chervil, a Sunflower Seed Orzo, Courgette Ribbons, Green Grapes and a serving of Goatsbridge Trout Caviar Sauce 3. The tastiest lentil nutloaf ive ever tasted.💗👏 Portions sized were perfect. Lovely touch to get the fabulous homemade breads and Houmous tasters while waiting. Also great to see local craft beer on offer.

09/10/2025: I went to the poachers the other day and I must say it was one of the best restaurants I've ever been to, I ordered the filet mignon and I asked for it to be medium rare which they cooked it perfectly, for desert I ordered the vanilla passionfruit cheesecake which was delicious. Highly recommended this to anyone that is thinking of going to the poachers

20/04/2026: Landlord is incredibly friendly and makes sure you feel very welcome and at home. Guinness is excellent too

25/02/2026: What a pub ! The keg under the bar, the Stout is cream, Mick himself is a gentleman, the epitome of hospitality, brings out snacks for the customers, makes welcome and warm conversation. A joy to visit, I shall return !

15/12/2025: Great food and a very friendly service. Very cute and cosy inside

12/12/2025: What a beautiful café! I had breakfast here this morning and enjoyed a lovely mini breakfast. The service was prompt, and the owner is wonderful — He really looks after everyone with genuine care. A lovely addition to Westport!

18/04/2026: What ever expectations I had were massively exceeded. I have never been to Westport before but my Mam strongly recommended this place for a food experience. It was 100% a food experience that still left you feeling full and the flavour explosions just kept coming. If you are a fan of seafood and you see it on the specials, get the seafood plate you will not regret it. The staff were absolutely fantastic as well. It absolutely lives up to the rewards it has gotten over the years.

16/04/2026: A wonderful restaurant with great service and even better food! I was passing through and wanted a bite to eat. That's when I stumbled upon SAGE and was immediately impressed by the ambiance and the warm welcome. I received excellent advice, and my request to order two appetizers and enjoy one as a main course was met with a smile. A good wine, a delicious dessert, and the many thoughtful touches between courses perfectly rounded off the experience! In the end, I was very full and happy after such a delicious meal! Anyone who thinks you can only eat fish and chips in Ireland should definitely visit SAGE in Westport. This prejudice is utterly disproven here! Thank you for the wonderful time, the friendly service, and the fantastic food!

10/05/2026: Excellent food and service! Thank you very much.

07/05/2026: A very nice place. The staff are very friendly and the food is very good.
