The best restaurants in Mayo

18/09/2025: A great Diner for everbody who is looking for some greens and vegetable beside the meat! We enjoyed the amazing chicken wrap with a mixed salad after plenty of burgers, fish & chips and other heavy stuff the days before! Great and friendly service and very cheap prices! We will come back, whenever we will be in the near!

14/09/2025: Lovely food and staff and really enjoyable place

04/01/2026: A fabulous meal in a relaxed atmosphere. A mixture of expected classics and interesting twists, done well.

08/11/2025: Wow! An amazing hotel and 10/10 hospitality from the staff. Traveling with a baby can be nerve wracking but the staff at the hotel did everything to make our stay comfortable and kid friendly. Will definitely be back.

06/11/2025: One star off for instant coffee sachets in the room and a tin pot of coffee at breakfast I.e no decent coffee to be had. Otherwise decent hotel.

21/09/2025: Expensive. But we enjoyed the food and the experience. Vassili made us laugh!

10/09/2025: Amazing high-end food in a very casual environment. I had the roasted lamb rump which was excellent. My partner had the cassoulet which was just as good. Highly recommend if you make your way to Westport.

09/09/2025: Quiet afternoon popped in for a quick bite to eat for lunch. Bar lady was so nice and welcoming. We will defo be back. 100% home cooked food. Simple menu but just what we wanted. Homemade veg soup and brown bread… so fresh Chicken goujons wrap with sweet chilli. Amazing value and literally 10 mins waiting.

08/06/2025: Great spot. What's the Munster hurling final here. Everyone was good craic especially the barman Tadgh

15/10/2025: Nice place, great food. Good service. Really enjoyed the starter, the main course and the desert. . I don't recommend the coffee. The coffee was weak and cold.

12/10/2025: Extremely Disappointing Stay – Not Worth the Price I stayed at Pure Magic Achill Island for 2 nights, and it was the worst accommodation experience I’ve ever had. We chose it based on the good online reviews and clean photos, and paid €270 just for the room. However, upon arrival, I was completely shocked. The room was not clean — there was hair all over the bed, and the bed linen clearly hadn’t been freshly changed. When I complained, I was offered another room with a double bed, single bed, and bunk beds for two of us and it was even worse. The room smelled like an old college hostel and had a tiny bathroom roughly partitioned with hardboard. When I asked for a refund to find another place, they refused, leaving me no choice but to stay in the first room. The shower water didn’t drain properly, the toilet wobbled when sitting on it, and even the towel was jammed into the sink. The whole building was old, dirty, and poorly maintained. Overall, it was a total nightmare. Definitely not worth the money and I do not recommend this place at all.

21/09/2025: Pure Magic is a place close to my heart. I’ve stayed here many times, and it never disappoints. Nestled at the foot of Slievemore Mountain, it’s perfect for a peaceful, tranquil break. The staff are very friendly, helpful, and easy-going. The food is excellent—highlights for me are the lasagne, which is a special, the warming seafood chowder, and the decadent white chocolate crème brûlée. Breakfast is just as good, with perfectly poached eggs and a great balance of healthy bites and hearty indulgence. Keel Beach is a short cycle or drive away, perfect for a morning dip in the Atlantic. From the property, you can also enjoy walks to an impressive megalithic site and the Deserted Famine Village—great hikes without being too strenuous. I can’t recommend this place enough.

11/09/2025: Very friendly boss and excellent ambience

11/09/2025: Rarely have I met such friendly and amiable owners!!!

22/08/2025: This was the best place I have ever been too. The craic was fantastic, music 🎶 unreal and wow what an atmosphere. Thanks to Emma and the staff who looked after 9 of us so well and we were a mad bunch of ladies. We will definitely return. It's a great place to find and very hard to leave. Actually we didn't want to leave !!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰

20/05/2025: I have never been to a better bar. Absolutely fantastic staff. So welcoming and warm. Drinks are fantastic. The most Irish bar in Mayo, absolutely brilliant. Genuine owners and staff, if you travel to Westport, you cant miss this pub! Amazing.

03/08/2025: -a truly fantastic breakfast&coffee but the real stars of the show are the staff. Wonderful special mother daughter team who made us feel so welcome. Would happily eat breakfast here everyday for the rest of time. Class

27/06/2025: Very charming café, super friendly and welcoming staff who let us bring our dog inside. Delicious sandwiches, especially the tuna melt! 👌

21/09/2025: I was very happy to discover this book shop and café. We had great coffee and tasty scones upstairs.

29/07/2025: A fantastic shop with a great selection. Big shout out to Aoife who was fantastic helping me to choose a perfect gift for a difficult person to buy for!

14/12/2025: Went for afternoon tea, served by the lovely Rachel from Portugal, her knowledge of the Castle was superb, she showed me around some of the many function rooms, had wine by the fire in one of the many bars.. if you love oldie worldie steeped in history and a Castle that feels like your on a very old ship you'll be in the right place. Will return and try Jack Fenn bistro attached to the Castle.

09/12/2025: Lovely area.. Food was good and staff were amazing.

12/10/2025: Had breakfast here yesterday. Really gorgeous. Service very quick even though it was busy. 3 of us left there full and very happy. Looking forward to a return visit

18/09/2025: What a gem of a place, we’d been to the Deli the day before and bought some granola and flour, and had a take out coffee, so we were really looking forward to a late breakfast at Café Rua. First impressions were a fantastic welcome and real friendly people, nothing sham or pretend here. What a great menu, absolutely something for all tastes and dietary requirements. The chorizo, spinach and sautéed potatoes, topped with 2 perfectly poached eggs and accompanied with chilli relish was excellent. Real fresh orange juice was delightful, and the coffee? Epic! What a fabulous way to spend time being looked after in one of the best cafés I’ve visited.

20/11/2025: Absolutely wonderful place ❤ food was to die for haven't enjoyed a meal like that in ages I had the steak sandwich and it was cooked beautifully 😋 himself had the full breakfast and said it was the nicest he's had in a cafe. Can't wait to eat here again! Next time I'm in Claremorris this will be the first place we stop. 5 star all the way

13/10/2025: I used Araby Cofffee House to cater a private party for 70 people and it was such a success! Ciara was very easy to work with and made it simple. She was realistic when it came to quantities and the cost was very reasonable. I wanted only vegetarian food and it was delicious - people even asked for the recipies! Ciara came at the appointed time with all that was needed (plates etc included) and discreetly set everything up and collected it the next day. I would really recommend and can't wait to eat in the cafe soon!
