Ridgepool Restaurant
Ballina
19/06/2026: Very helpful and friendly staff. Food was excellent. Rooms spacious and very well equipped. All in all Great. 🏆.
08/04/2026: Old tired bathroom with grout missing from tiles in major need of a refurbishment. Never a 4 star hotel. Bedroom also old fashioned. Whole place needs modernisation.
Update, the hotel apologised and said I should not have been in room 212 as it should have been closed for renovations. The hotel kindly offered a full refund. I will update score after I stay in another room.
Update
Room 209, bathroom brand new

Twin Trees Hotel & Leisure Club
Ballina
25/08/2026: A very bad experience. After a 3.5hr trip we went to check in to a double room. The room looked like a cupboard. The bed was against a wall so good luck getting out if you are on the inside. I had to explain to the manager that as a disabled person how am I supposed to get out in an emergency as the bottom of the bed was blocked by hooks for your clothes and an ironing board.we got our money back and found another hotel 1.5hrs away. Worst experience in a hotel ever.
29/06/2026: One night at this Hotel was all I need to escape my daily routine ❤️
Receptionists were friendly and helpful.
Shouts to Aishling, Leisure Centre Operations Administrator.
Would love to visit again 🇩🇿 absolutely worth it

Lantern Chinese Restaurant
Ballina
30/08/2026: Ordered takeaway, food was hardly edible, portions were small and quality was poor, prices were higher than advertised on their online menu. Every little thing was charged. Total price was ridiciolusy high. I would not recommend this place to anyone, very disappointing.
12/07/2026: They are trying to be dog friendly. Just call a few hours ahead, talk to the owner and she may make arrangements for you to sit Ina cordoned off area.

Costa Coffee
Ballina
12/09/2026: Incompetent and rude staff; after our order was repeatedly processed incorrectly, we were yelled at. The toilets stink and aren't clean. The latte was just a coffee with a splash of milk, and the ordered caramel syrup was also forgotten. Go to the café across the street instead.
12/09/2026: Great coffee shop for a chat and a coffee. Friendly staff

Apache Pizza
Ballina
31/07/2026: Not very helpful. Order two medium pizza for collection over the phone, they would not give the pop in deal price per the website saying it was online offer only. Other locations are customer focused and provide the offer for walk in collections.
30/06/2026: i ordered 3 cheese garlic breads and a portions tenders. Guess how many times we had to ring?… THREE, three times they hung up cause they thought we were a scam, just cause we couldn’t hear him with his shitty signal. THEN and only then he threatened to call legal sources on us. WE JUST WONTED OUR FOOD but i guess not it just kept going and going it got to a point. we got our food quick though and that member of staff and that girl only was nice. I was very disappointed in the attitude in our ringer so i wish to worn other near victims
kind regards,
amy, saoirse , chloe, katie & siphie

Bisini
Ballina
29/07/2025: We were on our holidays in Ballina and decided to get an Indian takeaway. Going on reviews on Tripadvisor we went with Bisini. I don't know what the people who reviewed this were eating but our experience was awful. The onion bajani were burnt and the food was awful. We would never again go back!
15/06/2025: The beef korma is absolutely delicious
